hopefully. Got to be honest, I hate rap. I don think its the music, just the whole business. Seems like every asshole in my life is a fan of rap music. Its just become the norm in not only american society now too. Rappers aren't musicians :/

Not insulting your own interests, I guess I just hate what ever is “hip" Tongue

I haven't listened to a lot of it. Who are some artists that you enjoy?

If you don't get my jokes, it's because of Postmodernism.

How would you define 'musician'? I'm not saying I enjoy rap, but this seems a bit ignorant.. Also, I think there is a difference between 'musician' and 'artist', but I believe rappers would fall into at least one of those categories.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

I understand sometimes the scope of a thread expands to include more than what it was initially intended for, and that's fine, but please, you guys, if we start discussing the merits of certain genres, let's all try to be kind and civil to one another. Not calling anyone out. Just trying to preempt and avoid anyone getting their feelings hurt. Smile

RE: What Music Do You Listen To?
I mentioned above that I'm open to most genres, but there are a few which I cannot find anything I like. These would be any kind of screamo, death metal, heavy metal, or country music. I usually don't like rap either, but there are some good songs, especially if they are not in English. But... do I think that these genres are not music? Absolutely not! Music is whatever you want it to be. Just go listen to John Cage's 4′33″ for example and then tell me rap is not music. Tongue

RE: What Music Do You Listen To?
@ImperialSun: Generally, I agree with you, except that I don't quite agree with "Music is whatever you want it to be." At least, not the exact literal meaning of that statement.

To be honest, I always preferred Cage's "Imaginary Landscape No. 4" for 12 radios over 4'33". There's another piece I heard once that was nothing but four rainsticks for half an hour. You can imagine how that one goes (it doesn't go, it just sits there in one place), but for some reason I loved it.

I heard a story once from one of my professors who said that way back before John Cage died, he visited my alma mater and performed a piece he called "Scales." It consisted almost entirely of slapping the strings of a grand piano with a small fish. Tongue Tongue Tongue

Also, I once composed a piece of music called "117" and in which you play nothing more than a C# 113 times in a row. I was just being silly, but a lot of people assumed that I meant it to be taken seriously.

RE: What Music Do You Listen To?
Jazz
Reggae (more than just marley)
Indie rock (foster the people, vampire weekend, Florence and the machine)
Indie electro (discovery, mr scruff,
Rock/alternative (kings of Leon, incubus, system of a down, beastie boys)
Dub/ska (sublime, slightly stooped, no doubt)
Chill/ambient ( clams casino, zero 7, massive attack)

My top 3 favorites are
1. rage against the machine (f*** u I won't do what they tell me! So political and angry, I love it)
2. The black keys ( if you know them for only in their current pop state, check out the albums magic potion and attack and release for some rad 2piece blues rock awesomeness)
3. Tool (At first it sounds like the whole band is on drugs, then after to listening to their stuff, music and lyrics, in depth, you see that they are geniuses and most songs can blow your mind. If you haven't heard of them, check out these songs: lateralus, vicarious, stinkfist, aenima)

Also check out my friends band http://shtarusa.bandcamp.com/album/function
it's fun listening music (especially Expectations)
