A lot of contemporary music sounds much like wordly music. I listened to it a lot when I was younger. I didn't get a "message" of Christ. I heard a lot of rock tunes that sounded like regular secular music. It's the appeal of the new age Christianity, it has the pop, rock, stamp of approval and many are lead to believe it's Godly music.
I hear little glorification in modern day Christian music. It is too much like the secular music and it offers false security and hope. For instance, good 'ole Jessica Simpson, a down home Christian girl from the country. During her breakout, she sang Christian pop/gospel songs, she mentioned she wanted to spread God's Word and gift. Did she spread it? I hear nothing of Christ, what I do see and hear is the tainting of what a Christian should be. She and Mrs. Federline/Spears who were raised Christian and sought to continue on with their roots mislead people.
Maybe, just maybe there are those who have a honest heart and want to reach the secular world with familiar music. But, not realizing what the music does and doesn't preach. Who makes the money? Does it support missions, a church, Christian organization? Or is it just their gain. It really depends what genre it is, is more about the beat or lyrics? Valid questions, indeed.
Not everything that is seemingly good is of the Lord. While some of it may be decent, wolves in sheeps clothing often comes to my mind.
