Let's be serious here. How many of you here actually listen to Gwen Stefani?
Do you really think it's fair to be critical of this artists style of music on "this" forum?

Squeak... admittedly, I, at age 65, do not listen to very much mainstream 'pop' music, and I am not critisizing anyone who does, nor am I critisizing anyone's talent ...
HOWEVER, the post was put on 'this' forum, so why can't I express my opinion on this forum? ... I am not putting anyone down who wants to listen to today's 'pop' music (my kids listen to it) ... BUT I reserve the right to listen to, play, and comment on music, regardless of who is performing it ...
Also, I feel very strongly that, in a world that needs a LOT more gentleness and compassion, bringing what I would call 'locker room' language into 'mainstream pop' adds nothing to our society ... the more we permit a lower standard, the lower our standards become as a society ... I personally don't want to contribute to that legacy ...
