Compare the first Punk Goes Pop CD to this one, and it's really amazing how times have changed. I wasn't aware that someone who blew up ginger kids in her most recent video was considered a pop artist, or a rapper featuring an alternative rock female singer. That said, I'll probably grab it and listen to a few tracks I'm curious about. It's just weird what pop music has came to encompass. Country (Lady Antebellum), hip-hop (B.o.B., Kanye, Jay-Z, etc). I MISS MANDY MOORE.
I for one welcome our Antebellum and B.o.B. overlords. And I think Pop now encompasses accessible music. The line between genres is blurring.
Not to mention the last few iterations of the Punk Goes series have become increasingly vague about the genres they use. (I think maybe two, three tops of "Goes Crunk" were actually "Crunk"? I mean, Rihanna, really?) And the "Punk" thing is something that could be gone on about for hours. It's just easier to look at it as "Currently Relevant Punk Influenced Bands Cover Unorthodox Songs and They're Pretty Much Hit and Miss" but that doesn't fit very well on an album cover unless you're Coheed and Cambria.
I think with Punk Goes Crunk the rhyming title was too good an opportunity to miss, even though Punk Goes Rap or something would probably be a more fitting title.
