Oh God Radio 1, say no more. It's tuneless crap, a lot of it's just noise - heard it in a shop once. Had a headache! Plus it's all mindless chatter - Sarah from Bolton says she's going to the pub tonight. Heard the top 40 at Christmas (positions 10-2), my God! It was the text messages, mindless chatter and mindless games! We pay for this? Can we have the cash back please?
This is how it's compiled:

So Twitter, Facebook and Youtube dictate then? The act on a smallish label who has a local following is meaningless. Depressing times. 2014 is not a memorable year musically.
That Beyonce video is overrated - I could get three women better looking than those and produce better myself! I guess it's them, it's always is. As for "Toxic" - fantastic song and video. "Everytime" my favourite

I've never understood why artists slag other artists off. Poor form and attention seeking.
Their was an awful lot of talking going on. Scott Mills and two others just talking rubbish about what some Aussie station was saying about 'Five Seconds Of Summer'
Haha! That is pathetic - what hope do the smaller artists have. Of course, if they have money behind them, aka Mumford and Sons, they have hope.
Beyonce is overrated full stop.
My girls are the big Britney fans - think the consensus, Baby One More Time and Toxic aside, is that she is better post breakdown.

I think Kezo's point is that different artists are treated differently, which is a fair point.
Britney Spears is caught smoking and she is awful (and I hate smoking)
Chris Brown punches someone in the face and Heat TV, as soon as it dies down, he's 'fit' and 'amazing' again.
Bieber can do no wrong.
Some Aussie guy the other week commits a drink driving offence, during the report, Heat said he turned up looking 'hot' - he was attending court to be sentenced - bad timing - if it was.....Matt Cardle (arf!) he would be condemned.
Beyonce, Rihanna, Katy Perry etc can do no wrong, but if it's Britney, Miley etc doing exactly the same things, they can do no right.
It's all about faces fitting. One rule for some, one rule for others.
