I disagree.
Just in the same way we can point to McDonald’s and say there is nothing good about it from a food perspective; that it barely even qualifies as food…
We can say the same thing about music. There is music that is so devoid of any kind of artistic output and merit, that no one could say it’s good. We are still listening to musical grades, but in 30 years, nobody will have a clue who Nikki Manaj is
I don’t think it’s an equivalent comparison. If you judge McDonald’s for their nutrition value, I’m sure all will agree they are crap and this is something that is objective and scientific.
There are people though that say they like McDonald’s and buy their food, and people that don’t like it and stay away. This is the subjective part. Musical taste is like your taste in McDonald’s. Some like McDonald’s, some like Mikki Minaj, for their own whatever reason. And it’s fine that they like it. It is their taste. It doesnt have to have artistic merit for them to like it, similar to how McDonald’s doesn’t have to have nutritious value for them to like it.
All the word games in the world don’t change the underlying truth and you know it. McDonald’s is awful it’s not even food, music is similar, most of it is not really even music, the same way McDonald’s isn’t even food, it’s hyper engineered food ingredients. I know it hurts to accept that most popular music is dog shit but that’s the truth and you know it’s true.

Music is completely objective. If I like it than it’s good, if you don’t like it then you are wrong

But if it’s medieval bee keepers then it is objectively great.
