part of it is just music moving forward, part of it is music becoming less about musicianship due to decreasing music education. Part of what makes certain genres like jazz have a stronger appreciation is when you’ve spent at least some time studying music composition and theory so you can appreciate the technical mastery being displayed.
This doesn’t discount music that doesn’t play to those more technical aspects or imply that genres and artists within those spaces are bad or not as good, but it’s more a commentary on the declining quality of educational access in the west.
