A lot of it really sucks. Completely separate from any message they may be trying to impart, the lyrics often don't match the tempo of the music, rhyme and meter are often off, or completely disregarded , and it all too frequently lacks any passion.
Pope Francis warned about "lukewarm" Christians in a homily at the Vatican
"Pope Francis warned that Christians run the risk of becoming "lukewarm" where we become "Christians in appearance" but we fail to conduct ourselves as Christians. Such people are "pagans painted over with two brush strokes of Christianity, so they look like Christians, but are really pagans."
well, im not one of them. since the 1980s i believed in good music that was only contemporary christian or church hymns. i stopped listening to all music and eventually dont really listen to contemporary christian music; either.
Personally, I prefer Christian music. A lot of Christians are carnally minded and do not practice Christianity except on Sundays. Music is very powerful. It influences us to either do wrong or do bad.

I can't believe you even asked that question. Is there offensive secular music? Sure. So don't listen to it. The rest is fine.

Atheism is cancer.
Music is of no importance to salvation.
