Title: What music do you listen besides hihop?
Post by: Noname on December 05, 2005, 12:43:10 AM
For a while now i feel kinda bored with hiphop, and i aint really feeling the new players in the game. And i heard all the old albums to many times now. So im listening more now to other types of music. Like:

- Bubbling
- Reggae
- Dancehall
- Merengue
- Salsa
- Reggaeton

its all about rock...

punk - rise against, bad religion, green day, coheed & cambria, offspring, rancid, etc...

older rock - nirvana, aerosmith, metallica, alice in chains, etc...

emo - copeland, mae, dashboard confessional, etc...

alternative - papa roach, coldplay, damien rice, linkin park, nickelback, etc...

I am actually more of a rock listener than hip hop now...other than rock and hip hop its R&B and techno every now and then...i don't really like country at all...except johnny cash but to me his music isn't really the annoying crappy country we hear today

Anything that sounds good. From opera to country. Fuck limiting yourself to 1 or 2 genres.

i like and listen to so much stuff that has varied over the years but i really can't be arsed listing a lot


i listen to singers like ...  james blunt, daniel rice, john legend (also, usher's 8701 is an awesome album especially "u got it bad")


personally i don't listen to a lot of bands anymore but i used to love  linking park, staind, papa roach, stereophonics, oasis, etc

now i don't listen to bands too often but some songs i love from recently (meaning 0-3 years old) are tunes like...

the coral - dreaming of you, the killers - all these things i've done, the killers - mr. brightside,


not forgetting elvis and to a lesser extent the beatles.  i love listening to elvis' hits and some of the beatles stuff too - like 8 days a week


although to be honest if you pushed me - i could make a double cd of rock tunes to last me the rest of my life

no way i could do it for hip-hop  :nawty:

In general, I listen to a lot of what my students listen to these days (yes, even this indie-hipster stuff like Death Cab for Cutie...I had to admit I like it).  Otherwise, I listen to some R&B and soul from the 70s', New Age from the 80s', and lots of 90s' rock like Matchbox 20.
Title: Re: What music do you listen besides hihop?
Post by: makaveli11 on December 05, 2005, 06:06:07 PM

Thanks to XM radio, I'm listening to stuff I otherwise wouldn't listen to. I even catch myself listening to rock or even classic rock. I can't say I know much about the genre though. I do listen to r&b/soul/old school funk stuff quite frequently and electronica/dance/techno every now and then. I enjoy that type of music more when I'm in the club. Every now and then I'll check out jazz. To be totally honest, I probably bump hip hop probably 80% of the time.

Soul
Latin house
Funk
Alternative rock

However it's all occasional. I listen to hiphop and rap like 95% of the time; not like I'm limiting myself, it's just what I love most.
