I have to disagree that RAP rots your brain. I personally can't stand that stuff, but in the '80's they said Heavy Metal rotted our brains and Religious groups called it "The Devils Music" and went apeshit trying to prove it, even playing Led Zepplin's "Stairway to Heaven" backwards claiming you could hear "Satan" and "My Sweet Satan" on there! I LOVED metal, until the split when you got the "Bubble Gum Rockers" (Winger, Warrant, Dokken) singing ballads to lovesick highschool girls and the other Bunch (MegaDeath, Slayer) who played one chord over and over screaming indiscernibly and called it "Speed Metal"! I Loved the Music, but I never fell for the "You have to Worship Satan to listen" thing! That's stupid. It was just music. It spoke to me and let me know I wasn't the only "loner" who ever felt what I was feeling. I was just a typical teenager going through what all adolescence go through!
Yeah, I hate rap and the idea it glamourizes "Thug" lifestyle. But ya know what? If they wanna be the next Biggie or Tu Pac, let 'em. You see where Biggie and Tu Pac are? It's called Darwinian Evolution. The dumb thugs kill each other off and the ones smart enough to know better than to spend $10,000 on clothes and gold jewelry, live on and the human race as a species gets smarter and thus stronger!
As for what I listen to, a little of everything, but nothing too fringe. If you look at my MP3's you'll See Beethoven and Ice-T. Johnny Cash and She Wants Revenge. I don't go by the group anymore, I go by the song.
