I actually think part of the problem is that so many songs are both country and rap (pick any pop like genre really and add rap). Everything is so formulaic with seemingly mandatory sections designed to partially appeal to all audiences.

This is not a knock on rap rather a nod that it appears so influential that it has a mandatory bridge in the middle of almost every "new release". In the end everything that I listen to seems to blend together.

I don't know if this is true or not, but is there a word or phrase to describe this phenomenon? Porn does the same thing, right? a little bit of everything to try and find something everyone can enjoy.

You might not listen to enough of this album

to realize how excellent it is if you heard the beginning of the first track and thought "this sounds exactly the same as every other 'House' track".
