When people ask me what kind of music I prefer, it's usually a very simple answer:
Anything but dubstep and really heavy metal.
Dubstep sounds like angry Transformer sex and heavy metal has some stuff in it that just scares me and makes me frightened for the future of humanity.
Like anyone else, however, I have my go-to artists that I can stop and listen to whenever and wherever I happen to be at that point in time. These are the artist that I stop shuffling through my library for (in no particular order) :
John Mayer
Jack Johnson
Frank Ocean
Kanye West
Bon Iver
Mumford & Sons
The Black Keys
Childish Gambino
Drake
My obsession with Kanye is very surprising to some people. In fact, it's something that surprises myself sometimes. He doesn't have anything in common with me in terms of political philosophy, of world view, etc.
However, he does make really good music. In fact it's so good, that he went and made a music group called G.O.O.D. Music that released an album not too long ago. It's called Cruel Summer. Maybe you've heard of it. If not, please crawl out from under the rock that you obviously live under and go listen to it. Now.
So now that you know the music that I love, here's the music that I HATE.
Lil Wayne
Nicki Minaj
One Direction
Carly Rae Jepsen
Justin Beiber
Taylor Swift
Skrillex
These musical acts in particular make me vomit whenever I hear them come on the radio or on the speakers at a party, a friends house, etc. If there is a suggestion for me to talk about any one of these musical "acts" I might choose to either ignore the request, or just publicly chastise the individual who requested it and ridicule their obvious lack of ear drums.
Well that's my musical taste in a nutshell. Tweet me with suggestions for what to talk about, because I will eventually run out of things to say, believe it or not.
