What kind of music does everyone here like?? Who here likes Eminem? Who likes his mew CD?? Ilike ALL kinds of music so i'm open for all coments....Don't be hateful...

My favorites are:

* DC Talk
* Jars of Clay
* Todd Agnew
* Linkin Park
... Lots more

Hate eminem, rap, and any rap musicians. (sorry for the hate)

Love Avril, Hillary, Jessica, Billy Joel, Josh Groban, Lyle Lovett, Sarah Evans, Many more.

Don't laugh....Love some opera (only some)

Any music from video/computer games that I play (the D2 redbook holds a revered place ), the Lord of the Rings movie soundtracks, Linkin Park, and 3 Doors Down. That's about it. Possibly the strangest combination of music ever.

Apologetix,
Any Sci-fi game music,
Sonic game music, (no, I'm not 8 )
Accapella,
And almost all Christian artists.

I like all kinds of music. I listen to alot of soundtracks from games and movies. I dont listen to typical radio music, though I do like classic rock. Then there is classical music, though not the light whispy ones that make you fall asleep. I dont like rap and hip hop ether. So I cant name one favorite as I have lots of them.

Rock
Hardrock
Metal
Heavy Metal
Death Metal
Thrash Metal
'Some' Rap/Hip-Hop
Industrial
Glam Rock (Big hair bands, I don't consider them metal )
'Some' 80s Pop (so sue me )
Symphony Orchestra
Classical
Alternative

Basically if it isn't total crap I might consider it worth listening to

yeah i can listen to eminem. it's all about the message with rap no? and his isn't too bad (compared to other popular rap artists). don't love it enough to buy/download it though.

atm i'm listening to Prodigy's latest album, and it's going off like a frog in a sock.

my music taste is increasingly becomming too wide to explain, didn't used to be this way though. opera/classical, to arty electronic ambience pseudo-music, to your normal alternative, to dance and trance. it's bothersome to try to explain all angles.

i like food, i like music. i'm human, welcome to earth.

You don't listen to much rap then. His message is the worst in comparison to other Rap artists. Not saying any of the other rappers are saints by any means.

Most rappers rap about being rich, being a gangstah, having sex, selling drugs, shooting cops (not so much anymore, that I know of), etc....

Eminem sings about stuff like raping and killing his mom, killing his wife, all kinds of nasty things. How hes a white rapper and he feels oppressed by corporate America

Nah, none of their messages are really all that great. Half the time its nothing but bitches and hos and the bling and thats it every single song.

Wheee, well, theres my beef with rap. lol

If you have heard "Mosh" by Eminem....his latest song. It's about Voting....try watching the music video on yahoo.

I'm sure I'll win the award for the most unknown- I really like a couple spanish rock bands:

Mana
Cafe Tacuva
Los Lagartos

which makes him slightly more accessable to me than other rap artists. i don't give a ★■◆● about most of the stuff that popular rap artists crap on about, eminem has a little more stuff that i care about than most.

Eminem is almost the only artist in the entire urban-esque genre I don't hate, and principally because many of his songs are actually amusing.

Not to mention that the backing track often sounds decent, rather than simply tacky like 99% of hip-hop artists settle for.

Doesn't come close to my preferred music list though. That would be more like...

U2
Coldplay
Evanescence
Pink Floyd (most of)
Queensryche (seriously underappreciated... hard to believe almost no-one has heard of them where I live)
Linkin Park
Pearl Jam
Live (their older stuff mostly)
Smashing Pumpkins (their better work anyway)
Goo Goo Dolls
Metallica (some of)
Ozzy Osbourne
Emma Shapplin
Enya
The Corrs
The Ataris
Madonna (some of her work)
Savage Garden (maybe generic pop, but they did it quite well)

So there you have it... as perhaps figures, mostly rock, some grunge, progressive metal, alternative stuff and a bit of new-age thrown in...

EVANESCENCE!!!!! WOOOHOOO!!! Don't get me started on Evanescence....I don't wonna be late for school. Pink Floyd, linkin park, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne All awesome!! And one good song by Savage Garden....that i know of. Like i said i like ALL types of music...Country, some rap, Rock, some pop, some oldies....i can't think of anything else right now. Then again i'm half asleep right now too.

Detest hip hop/rap in any form.
Like any kind of well made music with a leaning to instrumentals.
Sound tracks such as from The Lion King or Robin Hood
Classics from MoTown or the Stones. Santana is another example. I'd guess you'd say my tastes are eclectic at best.

Eminem is the only Rapper I dont hate, but most of his stuff still sucks.

Otherwise I'll listen to most anything.

Rick James
Morris Day and the time
T-Connection
Skyy
Parliament
Funkadelic
George Clinton
Prince (When he's funky)
Bar Kays
One Way
General Cain
Fatback Band
Dazz Band
And many more....

Funk! all the way!

Jamiroquai,
Coldplay,
Michael Jackson.

Long live Acid Jazz...

I'll second that also

Everything from Sacred classics to Elton John, funk to punk.

It would be far easier to list the bands I do not like. On the top of that list would be The Beatles.

hmm, Fusion Pimp would you discourage younger ones from getting into the beatles? coz i've been getting into the beatles a bit the last few months, i'm 23, havn't exactly had much direct Beatles exposure.

I wouldn't dicourage anyone from getting into music they enjoyed. I just don't care for them.

Some of Eminem's stuff is funny but the rest is still crap.

Ever heard of the Gypsy Kings? Thats some good stuff.

I listen to trance, mostly GOA trance.

Infected mushroom, daedra, etc...

Heh, so?

I have been classically trained vocally, I sang in Jazz Ensemble in college, worked with electronic musicians, and my parents subjected me to Tenessee Ernie Ford plays the organ.....

I like it all for the most part. I listen to mostly trance when I'm at work, (cuz it keeps me going), classical at home and smatterings of everything else in between.

The more opportunity you have to experience the widest genres of music....take it! even if you don't like it, it may give you a greater understanding of what makes people tick, their motivations, and their lifestyles.

I've been on a big blues kick lately....Real, deep-down, soul-grabbing music. John Lee Hooker ROCKS!!!

Zeppelin, Beatles, Floyd, Hendrix, Doors, Clapton, Guns n Roses, Van Halen, and Prince.

Chevelle and Breaking Benjamin for the alternative/rock stuff. Voodoo & Serano and various DJs for my trance/techno fixes.

Personally, I absolutely cannot stand hip-hop or country music. Lately I've been really into movie scores, but anything other than the previously mentioned pet peeves and I'll give it a shot.

Apart from all the usual stuff mentioned, i'm into Kate Rusby at the mo'. She's a great folk singer from Barnsley (heh! bet ya'll know where that is) and she's making me get pissed of with my guitar again.

i listen to all types of music, too much to list down, but the newest Eminem CD is so bad, i am almost embarrased to play it in the car.

Jimmy Buffett, BNL, random jazz. Some classical.

if it sounds desent i'll give it a shot. only kind of music i don't like is country. I've just grown to hate it. As for the hole eminem thing, you should listen to the song mocking bird on his newest album if you think his songs don't have desent messages.

But i like a little of everything from rap to rock to trance. DJ-GT is my favorite vocal trance artist. www.generationtrance.com if you wanna download his mixes. they are free and kick ass.

i haven't bought his new cd yet but i'm going to....is it a good CD?

Wow, this is like what, his fourth CD? One song with a good message does not a good message make. Where have some of you guys been for the last 6 or so years? Oh yeah, probably too young to listen to his music

I've listened to his music ever sence his first CD came out!! i'v aslways liked him music. In my first post i said DON'T HATE!!

Congratulations SolidAir, you've just typed out the largest continuous list of artists I have never heard of (any of them!). What are they?
