Well, I think it is simply just a matter of different "old generation" and "new generation" of music attitude, value, art, or tolerance.
Old generation really have talent (self-learn or try their best) and experience to start their music career and achievement, while new generation have changed to a variety of approach to play or “hea®” music (singing, acting tv commercial, tv series, and movie same time, get publicity to make other great$£€￥).
For example, those old generation (I would define before 80's) are more focused on music and singing, relatively less concerning on image, outlook (exceptional case: roman tam or anita mui Cantonese pop king or queen are not only simply singer but also a complete performer on stage to impress the audience with quality music and visual impression long before MTV era)
those old generation rarely have people using own expense to produce and release record, before only talented singer or musician can be sign-contracted by leading record labels, but nowadays many people claimed they like music wor, so they can finance on their own expense to release music to achieve their dream wor or for their sweet memories
If you are belonged to the old generation (80's, now shall be over 40), I think you might be similar to me that I never buy new generation music product (funny song like "strawberry, apple and orange" really made me laugh to pee) or even avoid to listening nowadays local made Cantonese music (especially those kept re-singing cover version such as danny chan songs, perhaps their target are their similar age group generation but definitely not to general public audience)
another annoying new generation music are those claiming "hi-fi sound recording of cover songs, sound is really a good recording, but why bother to hear some new women claiming with angel or good voice to keep re-sing good old song with different music style (same as classical music in the early 80's goes to digital recording, but some performance is not as good as the previous analogue version, for example some 60's KARAJAN performance is better than his later digital recording)
if the new generation really can start a new age of Cantonese pop, I think it is justified to listen , such as LMF, or recent new local serious rapper are at least with new creative approach, really can impress our thinking
Briefly, it is better to allow both old and new generation music people to keep trying to color our local Cantonese music world, as long as there are difference, we can have our own choice to choose what to hear and buy, or ignore. (another example, old generation in their old day rarely eat hamburger, fried chicken, or instant noodle, but nowadays these are the popular favour because we like MSG or just for convenient sake?), my viewpoint is no absolute good or bad music, just a matter of taste, art, or preference (bob marley sings: you can fool people sometime, but you cannot fool people all the time,...get up , stand up, stand up for your right [the right to say YES to good music and NO to bad one]
in those analogue 80's era, professional Disc-Jockeys (really knowing the music by instinct but not simply like nowadays just modern talking on the radio) remix song by using multi-tracks tape recorders and cutting tape skilfully are really a creative task and masterpiece, but nowadays digital device even mobile phone apps or computer software can do a lot routine remix task without good thinking and creativity???
video kills the radio stars (nowadays I don't really feel any movie or music stars at all), digital kills the creativity?
why old generation of music people are still dare to speak out or comment to the public, look at those "reissue" CD sales comparing to the new generation of music people's cd or internet sales
and the sales of old generation concert ticket, that's why people really care what they say or comment...otherwise who bother to argue
sorry for keeping you to read my old-cake feeling of local Cantonese music history [let me declare myself first, when I was teenage, my priority to buy and listen music (vinyl) are western pop music, dance 12-inch music, Japanese songs, Cantonese and mandarin music are the last choice]
sadly, it seems this phenomena not just happing locally, but also globally
