Some people judge music depending on the race behind it, the genre, the artist, and the background of why it was created. An old man cam up to me at Big Lots and said that I should stop listening to the rap music that I was listening to. Little did he know that it was R & B, which is rap and blues. I was also listening to the Bone Thugs n Harmony. I listen to them not because of their race, but because it sounds great, inspiring, and musical! 

      People say certain music can kill a person. I don't believe that. I am a musician, and music is universal. It is the universal language to everyone. I listen to lots of japanese music, because it is peaceful! It sounds amazing and pleasing to the ear. I don't really care for the lyrics, but I love a good beat with great sound. 

      I guess it depends on where you grow up, and how you were raised. If you had a good mind and could think for yourself at a young age, then you wouldn't have that problem, because you used common sense instead of listening to mom and dad, because sometimes they can be wrong too. 

      I just wanna say that if your gonna hate a certain genre of music, atleast give a good explanation instead of acting like an ignorant person trying to get some love over something you don't even know. In order to critisize a song, you have to delve into the beat, rhythm, and making of the song. You need to understand why it doesn't feel right. For example; I don't like certain styles of music where people scream into the mic and say certain things. Im not trying to be funny or judgemental, but to me, it doesn't have any type of rhythm, harmony, melodic content, or anything in that composure that "to me" creates a great piece of music. Now, I understand that some people enjoy that type of music. I am not going to critisize you for enjoying music that is pleasing to YOU! 

     Basically, if your gonna hate a song, give a good reason to why, and then don't try to critisize the person for listening to something that makes HIM feel good. Thats like saying," Since I don't like a certain religion, we should stop our children and people from following that religion." If it makes sense to you, then do it. I get tired of people saying that their are music that can make a person do things. Which they can, but only if you don't have a good grip on reality, and don't have a great mental mind.

     Well, thats my 2 cents. If you hear your friend listening to music you hate, don't hate them for listening to it, think about why they listen to it. *wink* *wink*

That $5 would be better spent on lunch or socks.
