Notion Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I know what Underground is... I used to love Jet about 3 years ago. Even then they had mainstream appeal. I have heard of the others. No more arguments Dude, not to be mean here, but mainstream is like Britney Spears and Lady GaGa, you know that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimpleBlur Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Mainstream music denotes music that is familiar and unthreatening to the masses, as for example popular music, pop music, middle of the road music, pop rap or soft rock; Mainstream jazz is generally seen as an evolution of be-bop, which was originally regarded as radical.
