Samenvatting

It is argued that pop music has long been locked up in the exploitation phase. Boring, more boring and even more boring seems to be the motto, and only extreme, as now boring monotonous hip hop from Chicago / London - called drill - in which "respect" is enforced by the real killing in quarrels between rival gangs, explores the border. For the rest, contemporary pop music is exploitation, until we learn to listen differently to the many talents that remain undiminished and we grant them the adventure of musical or scientific exploration.
