Some played out stereotypes in the fascinating world of music:-

1) The first minute or so of all house songs must be merely a build up to the actual song i.e. a few beats here and there while you twiddle your thumbs and wait for the actual song to start.
2) All rap videos must have women with "phat" asses and humongous boobs;to this my friend said,"I like this stereotype. Although the ugly rappers with gold teeth totally gettin it on with them disturbs me...."
3) All boy bands must have a maximum of only two guys who actually can sing regardless of how many members are in the band. The others just move around in the background and try to look as gay as possible. Ahh... well girl bands aren't too far behind either!I'm currently negotiating with record labels to have my own girl band with 850 girls.
4) All current heavy rock songs must have a phase around the middle of the song where the music slows down only to slowly build back up again to a louder, angrier version. Again I don't mind this stereotype. (interesting sidenote - In an Incubus song called "Just a Phase" they actually fake the slow down to anger phase the first time. Just as you expect Brandon Boyd to scream his lungs out as the drums get louder and faster, he goes back to slow mode. But the next time the slow down phase is done, he ends up screaming the next verse. My ears were not prepared. I had never been faked by music before.)
5) All contemporary female artistes must have atleast one song about how they "don't need a man to be happy", followed by 15 songs about how they just want a steady relationship.
6) All rap artistes must talk about their bling, their hos and their rides for atleast 80% of their albums(Eminem reduces that percentage significantly. He rather personally insult his entire family. I like him.)
7) In rock videos, the camera concentrates on the lead singer and guiatrist for 96% of the video closely followed by the bassist at around 3.5%. The drummer gets a cool 0.5%. I want to be a drummer.
8) All R & B artistes must go over the top at a certain point in the song, basically singing something along the lines of "oooooo yehhhh ohhhhh babyyy ooooo oooo ahhhhhhhh yeh babyyyyy ooooo wooahhh woah...woahhhhhh".
9) All young female pop singers (Britney, Lohan, Duff, Aggy) must have one song/ballad where they make a heartrending attempt at explaining how they are "just like any other normal, average girl next door" even though they have about 10000000000$, two private planes and three jail sentences more than "normal girls". This is followed by an upbeat song where they sing something along the lines of "I'm not your average girl. I'm different". Please make up your mind.
That's all I have for now. Feel free to add some more stereotypes.
PS: Sorry for the ridiculous title......
