Musical Preferences

All my life my musical interests have varied as they do today. My musical interests range widely from classic rock to Hip-Hop. I have also studied classical music, however I do not necessarily enjoy listening to the music. I like different kinds of music for different reasons. All music puts me in a certain mood or makes me feel a certain way. I like classic rock and rock because they are usually loud songs that make me feel energized or give me new life. Hip Hop does the opposite for me. Rap and Hip-Hop is the kind of music that usually relaxes me and puts my mind at ease. Songs like whoever you like by Lil Wayne and ride by Ace Hood have lyrics like "You can have the weather you like", these kind of lyrics let me dream a little bit. I do not only have interests in these two music genres these are just the major ones. I will occasionally catch the techno or metal song I like but it is rare. Listening to all different genres of music has helped me explore new cultures and new ways of living. Listening to these different kinds of music has caused me to look into other ways of life and learn about new people . Below is a link to a music video of one of the songs i like called I'm So Paid by Akon
