I like this song. While the music itself is standard hip pop, the beats and lyrics are really very good. It's nice to hear a decent love song again.
"Bring back the bass", I hate to burst your bubble, but rap/hip hop/R&B are NOT fads. They've been around for years, if not decades, if not longer. R&B's role in American history can be traced back to the Negro spirituals sung by slaves working the fields in the South. The genre originally combined jazz, blues, and gospel, and, in its more current form as we know it today, it combines soul and funk-influenced pop music. The important thing to note is that R&B, past and present, is noted mainly for its accomanying backbeat, which WAS THE BASIS FOR ROCK MUSIC. The actual term R&B has been around since 1949.
Same with hip hop, which has its roots not only in R&B, jazz, and the like, but can be traced as far back as scat, which was popular in the 30's. It's present form as we know it was popularized in the late 70's when a Jamaican DJ brought to the US the style of toasting, or bragging in spoken-word poetry over Jazz, Disco, and Funk records.
Music is subjective. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's not "real" music. Educate yourself before you spout nonsense in public where the world can laugh at you.
