Back in the eighties, that hair metal crap was so popular, and it just became utterly asinine. Like Poison or WASP and their flaming cod-pieces. After years of the stuff, something else came along (grunge), and it wasn't in fashion anymore, because it was just too much, and people realized it. This allowed good metal to survive (like Pantera and Sepultura), and now we've got some decent metal today, although it's not in radio play.
I think (or hope rather) that this is what'll happen to the shit today. Something better(? at least different) will come along, and people will realize just how stupid some of this shit they've been listening to really is, and it won't be popular anymore.

I love hair metal. Pantera is pretty awesome as well.

Kid Cudi if you're into the drug scene is good.
They're both "poppy" and not hard like rappers are "supposed to be," but they deliver their lines well, and in terms of production, Kanye is tough to beat. It's not often you see a rapper collaborate with an indie artist of the likes of Bon Iver.
Also, Benny Troung.
