Self Opinion

I have interested in Japan and their culture when I was 12 years old. But it started with watching anime but now I left anime and had devoted myself to Jpop because Jpop seemed real and I can support my favorite artist from afar. I only focused only four anime that is Naruto, Bleach, Fairytail and Avatar. Other than that is out of the question. I decided to not be someone who is totally obsessed over things that are not real and alive. Even though some would say it won't be meaningless because they will not die or something but still I decided to choose Jpop more than anime. But don't worry. I will not fully throw them away. If there is an interesting anime, I will watch them.

What I want to share is that someone from facebook, an online friend of mine had shared a post, well more like her opinion. She's also a Jpop fan like me and she's from America. I somehow agreed with her statements about jpop and all. This is what she posted:


People constantly ask me why I switched from American music to Japanese. Well, let's just say jpop songs are meaningful. Nowadays it's so easy to mention drugs and alcohol and x-rated things in American music. You literally cannot go through your songs without having a cuss word in it or mentions of drugs, alcohol, etc. It's basically teaching children and teenagers that it's okay to do this. It's okay to do wrong. So of course I hate American music. I know what some might say; "not all is like that." Yeah, well the popular ones are. They're such bad influence on people, like this song, "I'm a boss a** b****" and they keep repeating the word. Or "my n**** my mother f******..." WHY ARE THEY POPULAR. THEY'RE SO STUPID. this is the reason I left the whole American music thing. They're just really stupid ok. Maybe I'm being bias. I dunno. But when I listen to jpop, the songs are so inspirational. Especially NEWS songs. And I always find the fact that there is deep meaning in the music. I don't wanna listen to pathetic stuff where I hear a cuss word every 2 seconds or a mention on x-rated things in the music. Even though, I'm not a person that gets influenced easily, some American songs nowadays are so pathetic. Like, "We Can't Stop" or "Gas Pedal" or whatever the heck it's called. So yeah. I definitely left the American music world because the lyrics honestly, can never compare to jpop. This is my reasoning. Also no hate because this is my own opinion.

I totally agree with her. So this is what I feel too, you know. This is one of the reasons that I'm talking about jpop. My friends, please don't hate me because I like Jpop. I totally can't help it. You guys too have other interest and this is my interest. I know that my interest is different from other people but I like how it is. Being different from other people that is.

There are other reasons but that's it for now.

I will post again.
