None taken. My point is that those versions are much more interesting than the old 8-bit versions that I grew up with. Nostalgia plays a big factor
That said, I don't think you chose your words correctly. The ones up there are not dull because they're upbeat, catchy, etc... While I detest things like Nelly, for example, I can't go as far as calling his stuff dull for the same reason. You may not like them and that's fine. I even agree that they're pretty simplistic and easy to play.
The only time I'd consider those dull would be if they were viewed purely from a musical analysis point of view...
