popular music was never good, I assume you're a literal boomer who's nostalgic for pre-disco music

That was more an argument for how they still knew how to write hooks back then but the actual music was still pretty empty and based on scripted cliches.

After the brief golden age of decentralization in the 50s-60s the music industry re-centralized in LA during the 70s so everything became very corporate and predictable once again.
