Yeah, I don’t even listen music much anymore. Conservative talk show hosts, Alan Colmes and Big Bill take up most of my radio time.

I’m a varsity basketball coach, and my players insist that I play rap crap for pregame warmups. Not a chance. I tell them they’re not gonna be listening to that garbage in 10 years anyway. And, if they are, they’ll either be unemployed, depressed about their chosen station in life, or in prison. Each home game..they warm up to AC/DC, The Who, and Van Halen. Sweeeeeet

Someone on YouTube has been posting a series of more than 100 vintage recordings by Frank Sinatra. Now, that’s real singing of real songs, yet broadcasting moguls have pretty much consigned these treasures to the memory hole.

I listen to Latin Pop. It is mostly romance gone wrong, with a little sex thrown in occasionally, but nothing gross or vulgar, and not misogynistic. No drugs. I like the beat and it’s easy to dance to.

Personally, I like watching and listening to Blue Man Group. They are
entertaining and while their music is unconventional, it is still a sort of music. You can disagree but you can also disagree that Chinese Classical
Music is not music when I think it is beautiful. It’s in the Ear of the listener.

Kids think the guy scratching the records behind the rapper is a musician. What a joke!

They are musicians. They are making music in an untraditional way, but it’s music nevertheless. Tom Fogerty of CCR used to play a washboard and members of Phish actually rigged a vacuum cleaner to make music. They’re all musicians too.

Rap is a safe haven for those that can’t actually sing

Maybe. But there’s a lot of amazing creativity in a lot of rap music. Great meter, great storytelling, amazing rhyme schemes.

I hate most popular rap, but there’s some stuff out there which is fantastic.

MM, how about an open thread that asks, “What do you listen to?” or “What’s worth listening to?”

Funny how MM picks up the Pop music = crap as the headline and skips over the Country music stats which show a far percentage rate for “substance use” lyrics.

Don’t want to alienate the reader base eh?

I used to be a country music fan – grew up on it actually. But the stuff today is neither country or music, just crap with a twang. Notice you dont hear any instrumentals on country radio or see them on cd’s? Most likely the reason is there is nobody in Nashville with the talent to do them. It takes talent to pick a tune. The country junk today is generic. And country pretty much hit rock bottom with that no-talent Tim McGraw.

30 pcs of silver said: So… if you remove all references to drugs, alcohols or tobacco, what you end up with is an instrumental?

Except they can't play a REAL instrument these days and/or sing in key either half the time. Take it from me, I'm a professional musician, I know what I'm hearing. Rap is a safe haven for those that can't actually sing, and kids watch music these days not listen to music. Blame the liberal mindset that dumbs down our society as they run and teach the arts, including music. It's pretty much ruined music. Kids think the guy scratching the records behind the rapper is a musician. What a joke! And I can't believe some of the most hateful spew that I've heard out of alot of musicians and artist's mouthes towards the war, Bush, conservatives, etc..

Navywife91..#90…I watch the American Idol tryouts and sometimes the Amazing
Race. I have never made it through the entire thing on either but do enjoy catching
up now and then. Also, have never voted on AI. I listen to all kinds of ethnic music,
but right now enjoy Emma Shapplin, Lisa Gerard, Jose Cura and A Bocelli, but when
it’s time to clean house, it’s Chuck Berry because of the energy.

Pop music does = crap!

I’m stuck in a time warp… I still listen to the old rock group YES. Also, classical and ethnic music as well.

My late Mother made sure we all had years of piano lessons too.
