is vapourwave worth listening too?
And I mean really worth it,as in are there artists whose works compare to the best Classical,Jazz or Rock Musicians?
the only reason to listen to vaporwave is if you like the sound of 70s/80s pop and R&B but you're too ignorant or lazy to just go back and listen to 70s/80s pop and R&B
or if you're a meme-loving bandwagon hopper i guess
basically what i'm saying is no, it isn't
It's best looked at as chill music. If you think of it as anything else it's going to come short.
It's an interesting genre of electronic music either way and worth exploring for that alone, the genre has a shitload of different styles depending on artist. This means even if the genre is officially shit it can still produce some good stuff.
The problem is most of it low-effort trash. The meme status doesn't help. I say listen to some essential albums or RYM top list and see for yourself.

I discovered City Pop through Vaporwave, which is now one of my favorite genres. In other word I think it is good for finding new music by the samples used.

Hell no, its mostly white noise and low-fi music. It's alright for chilling and going in background while you code or do something.
Only ones who think it's more than that are hispsters who think pigeons gooking on their blacony is inspiring.
so it's shit?
