16 People Share Their Most Unpopular Music Opinions
People love flex that they saw a certain band first or heard a hit song on the radio before it became a hit. I admittedly am one of those people.... sometimes. However, I never claim that one genre is better than another or try to be a music snob. Music is powerful and it speaks to everyone in different ways. Who am I to judge? The moral judges of Reddit have a lot to say though. Yesterday, Reddit user u/ryuundo asked the AskReddit community: "What is your most unpopular musical opinion?" The thread quickly went viral as thousands of people shared their unpopular music opinions that ranged from popular bands they don't like to what they think of music snobs (excluding themselves). We have gathered some of the top-voted and best comments. No artist was safe. These savages came for Adele and The Beatles. People did not hold back. Keep scrolling to see if you agree with these comments or if you feel offended on the musicians behalves.

"Popular music can, in fact, be good."
Let's leave pretentiousness at the door. Everyone thinks it's cool to hate on pop music. Well it is popular music for a reasonnn. If you like the sound of a tune whether it's popular or not - just embrace it. Music is for the soul. There is not right or wrong way to enjoy. You don't get cool or lame points for liking certain songs. Blast it proudly kings and queens.

"I don't care if an artist fits into the correct category (i.e., Green Day isn't real punk). Good rock music is just good rock. Shut up about what it is or isn't and listen or don't."
I have been preaching this since 5th grade. Green Day has always been a punk band and I will go down dying saying this. They did not sell out. They never changed their music style in order to become popular. They became popular BECAUSE their music was so good and people craved more all over the world. Great music is great music. PERIOD.

"Adele is incredible. Her songs are blah."
Now this is just sacrilegious. Adele is a legend, a queen, a genius etc. I could go on for hours. Adele's writing is always upfront and honest. You know exactly the story she's telling, and even if you haven't experienced divorce yourself, you feel every word of it. Her voice is sounding better on her last album. Adele has range for days and we won't stand for this slander.

"Agreed. Another example of this IMO is Ariana Grande. Great voice, can’t stand her music."

"Billie Eilish, while a good singer, just isn't my style. I can respect her, but the music is just whack. I like me some out-there music, but her stuff is just...not it for me.

"Adding riffs and runs into every vocal line of a song does not make the song better. Occasional, well-placed riffs are great, but when the lyrics become borderline incoherent because the singer is too busy trying to run up and down the scale."

"The '90s era is overrated. The music wasn't actually that impressive; you're just longing for the times when you were young, your life was still ahead of you, and you didn't have a care in the world."

"Vocal range is a useless measurement when determining who the best singers are. If said singer can’t make you feel something, then what’s the point?"

"The Foo Fighters are boring radio-friendly rock. Yes, I know that Dave Grohl is a pretty stand-up dude in real life, and I can appreciate that they seem to really give it 100% for their live shows, but I just can't enjoy any of their music."

Pink Floyd is noise garbage."

"'Sweet Caroline,' 'Don’t Stop Believin',' and 'In the Air Tonight' don’t need to be played literally everywhere."

"Silence is fine. I don't usually play music when I am driving, and this seems to freak people out."

"Axl Rose (from Guns N' Roses) has the worst voice I've ever heard. I can listen to plenty of '80s rock, but as soon as I hear that man's voice I can't help but be irritated."

"The Beatles are a pop band who made bad music and only sound good in the context of them being one of the first pop bands."
