Please, dont put the greatest band ever in the same category as a talentless pop star.

Aw dude, you must be "trolling"... Go back and listen to a few of the "greatest band ever" earlier albums and try and tell me that "I wanna hold your hand" has any more social relevance than "Tik Tok" by Keisha. The Beatles were packaged and sold just like JB, Elvis, the Backstreet Boys, New Edition, etc. That's the music industry now and that was the music industry then. Nothing has really changed except your perspective.
Now if you'd like to argue that some of their later work was relevant, I'd probably agree with you. Of course, then you'd have to concede that the possibility exists that JB could still write extraordinary music in the future, once he has established himself. Heck, maybe he'll spend some time with the Dali Lama....
