SRV is the Steven Segal of guitar.
I generally don't have any interest in music... I mean, is fine some of the time, but I certainly wouldn't go out of my way for it. I also don't think it should be allowed as "background noise" in public places. It can have profound effects on your mood without you even realizing it's happening.

Modern music slaps. Just gotta find the right albums.
Care to share some of your favorites?
One of my favorites recently has been Djesse Vol. 4 by Jacob Collier

Has it come to this? by The Streets is awful, the worst song I’ve ever heard. It plays a lot on a particular station and it drives me nuts
The average quality of music in the world doubled the day Kurt Cobain solved his headache problem. Grunge was a disease caused by not changing your clothes, and using too much heroin instead of learning to play instruments and sing.
And, I'm peak GenX and a Seattleite.
Alright, Courtney, no need to shit on his grave.
Also, Courtney Love is 10x the musician Kurt ever was, listen to any track on America's Sweetheart and you'll break your heart. It's better that she's free.
That's kind of a dark way to word that, damn.
Rap and Hiphop are just shit music.
I have a pretty broad music taste, I have rock, classical, pop, eurodance, opera, bitpop, industrial, metal, ballads and more on my phone, except rap or hiphop.
There is just something in me that as soon as I hear either it just sounds like shit.
You shouldn’t generalize, a lot of the stuff that gets played a lot is not indicative of the whole genre. There is some rap that makes me cover my ears, and there is some rap that makes me feel enlightened. Hip hop it just depends on the song, since there is so much variety.

I like it because I can equate it to poetry. You have to be one talented motherfucker to come up with some of those rhymes, and to be still able to put it along to a rhythm and beat, sometimes incredibly fast (Busta Rhymes, George Watsky).
ETA: I also have a soft spot for three particular white Jewish boys from NYC

IDK if it’s unpopular, but I’m worried that TikTok, Instagram, and Youtube Shorts have completely screwed with what kind of music gets popular nowadays. It seems like every popular song has some kind of intense drop because content creators love the “quick build up to some kind of visual punchline” video format and it has ruined what I think could otherwise influence and encourage originality

That rap is absolute garbage. For reasons I can't explain it makes me unbelievably angry to have to listen to. It probably has something to do with a combination of my anxiety and sensitivity to loud noises, but I don't know. I do like metal, although I don't like it particularly loud.
