so...what do y'all listen to except hiphop??

[Kill]

*Inspired by Luke's topic which ain't the first thread like that on here*

i guess most of u like me listen to hiphop/rap more than to anything else, but also i think most people will put on sumthin else from time to time too...so when u ain't bumpin hiphop what are u listenin to?

Me personally I often listen to funk records, especially P-Funk and and the type of shit that's been sampled by w/c rappers over and over again...then there's sum soul and old r'n'b I'll occasionally listen to, but not alot. Then there's sum triphop I bump onceinawhile, US cats like DJ Shadow and the UK innovators like Portishead. Also I got sum jazz records

Now this might not be the first topic like this either, but i've never seen one, so i was wonderin...

sometimes i listen to pop music or trance music. that's it basically.

[West C. Connected]

R&B.

[We Fly High]

listen to dj shadow, got most of his catalog, dark days, privat press, endtroudcing, brainfreeze, product placement, preemptive strike...

i guess im starting to get into the roots of the west coast rap, and trying to dig up some funk. i just went to a George Clinton concert in NYC, and i loved the music, so hopefully i can start getting into more of it.

i dunno, i listen to some old rock from like 8-10years ago.. like Nirvana is pretty good, i love Alice in Chains.. unbelievably dope music

some R+B i guess, not much, i dont even know if you would consider this R+B, more neo soul i guess, like erykah badu, d angelo, jaguar wright, john legend, goapele type shit...  i dont dig the mainstream R+B pop shit.

but yeah i guess not that much else..  took a music class this past year, and pretty mcuh expanded my knowledge on a lot of music, so i hope to expand that, and explore new types soon..

I love funk music, Parliament/Funkadelic is great. Sly and The Family Stone is great too. I'm a huge fan of Rick James, likewise for Prince. Rush is a great band IMO. I love the Beatles. Bob Dylan is great. Bowie is incredible. Elvis is a great artist. James Brown is great. Hendrix is the most incredible of all.

Forgot about lots of other artists. I dig Johnny Cash, Marvin Gaye, The Steve Miller Band, John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters. More to come as I think about them.
