Too much of a good thing isn’t healthy. This is true even when it comes to your favorite music artists. Yes, you can binge their albums from time to time. But when you start hearing too much about them in the news or social media, it can be annoying. People are now starting to lose interest in these 12 high-profile musicians.

DJ Khaled

First on the list is DJ Khaled. According to one commentator, ‘He is the least talented person to ever be mistaken as a musician.’ Another user adds, ‘If he didn’t announce his names in his songs, you wouldn’t know it’s him.”

Adam Levine

Some Reddit users cannot stand Maroon 5’s lead vocalist, Adam Levine. “His music is mostly boring, and he seems like a mean person,” says a middle-aged mom. Some users, however, are keen to point out that Adam’s first two albums were great, but ‘he stopped caring about songwriting’ after the band’s third album.

From looking at his name, 6ix9ine feels like a joke to some people. “It’s the kind of handle a 13-year-old boy would think is clever and cool,” reads one post. And his lyrics are no better; as a user puts it, “I look at his lyrics for his songs, and I die laughing because of how stupid they are.” But one commentator does point out that ‘his old songs went crazy’ and were drop bangers.

Meghan Trainor

Reddit users feel Meghan is a hypocrite for writing a song that features body sensitivity yet body shames other women. For starters, why use the term ‘skinny bitches’ in her lyrics? Plus, “She made a song glorifying fat people and then lost a ton of weight on purpose? Hypocritical,” reads a post. 

Drake

Machine Gun Kelly

It’s not all bad with Machine Gun Kelly; as one user points out, “(I) love his music, rock and rap. But the dude has major behavioral issues and impulse control.” 

Kid Rock

One angry fan says, “He was a rich kid that tried being a Beastie Boys knockoff only to realize his ‘All American Redneck’ act sold…Guys (would) have called him out for being a poser.”

Sam Smith

Many people think Sam Smith is an attention seeker. “Sam is fine doing sad, heartbroken ballads. But in-your-face jams are really not Sam’s thing,” points out a commentator. Besides, “Why does Sam dress in an overly sexual way?” wonders another. 

Cardi B

Also on the list is Cardi B, who is described as “responsible for some degradation of society” by a Reddit user. And some users haven’t forgotten her past. “She has admitted she used to drug and rob guys before she was famous, but because most of them were married or in a relationship, they wouldn’t come forward,” explains one commentator. 

Chris Brown

Some Reddit users are sick of Chris Brown too. Though he did drop several bangers back in the day, ‘his career should be non-existent’ reads a post. Another user wonders, “In this day and age, with social media being what it is, I genuinely do not understand how he still has a career.”

Taylor Swift
