Joss Stone? Or Macy Gray? Or Usher?

I don't like any of them, yet it seems people all over goes crazy for them, anyone care to explain it to me? :shrug:

1. Are you into more obscure artists?

Maybe you don't don't like the pop sound?

If you do, well, Usher has some very good hooks and a smooth voice. Macy Gray is an acquired taste. Of the three, I like Usher the most, and Joss the least.

2. I don't like how Joss Stone
butchered The White Stripes' "Fell in Love with a Girl." She remade it a few months after the Stripes released it, WTF?

I like some of Macy Gray's songs, her voice is unique and I don't like Usher's music at all.

3. I don't hear much pop music; the only one I've heard is Joss Stone
and she's just awful.If she's being hailed as a major new talent then the mainstream music industry must be on life support, as far as talent goes anyway.No doubt they're still making money hand over fist with these ridiculous synthetic acts. Guess that's why I don't listen to it.I've never even heard a Brittney Spears song in its entirety. I doubt I've missed much.
