So, with all this talk about different genres of music and crossing over into different sounds, I was wondering; How far is going too far when it comes to what's acceptable in dance and urban music?
I see "Like a G6" is acceptable to dance music, but which side of the aisle would this be on?

And with that thought in mind, then how about

AND!!! with THAT thought in mind, how about

At which point does the rejection & unacceptance begin on either side of the aisle?
Believe it or not, ONE of these songs are receiving attention on an urban station... but I'm sure it's not the same one that would receive more dance attention.
Where do the borderlines begin? Should things like "I know you want me" by Pitbull and "Boom boom pow" by Black Eyed Peas be pushed to URBAN airplay? And what about songs like "dj got us falling in love" by Usher or Taio Cruz "dynamite"? Would you also apply the same exact thoughts that came to mind when you saw "Taio Cruz" and "Usher" apply to Robin S - "Show me love"? Why or why not? Would whatever you thought in regard to "I know you want me" by Pitbull also apply to "boom boom boom" by Outhere Brothers?
