LISTENING TO MUSIC OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE

so many artist recs on here i normally would never even consider listening to. but taking that chance has helped me find a few new songs/artists i really like but would normally never explore on my own

liking basically all music, including country and rap

i’m not saying i want to or will put on every subgenre (bc i will not!) but i love being able to listen to most genres or at least appreciate most genres when playing their best. i’ve got playlists for so many moments and genres and moods and it makes me so happy having such a variety of music in my life! i’ve found that people who say “i listen to everything but country and rap” usually don’t even have a wide variety of music preferences within the “everything but” they refer to. music is such a diverse form of art and restricting yourself to a few artists or only what’s popular (hello tiktok…) is doing a disservice to the medium and to yourself as someone able to listen to music. now, i’m not at all saying that liking “popular” music is bad in and of itself. i also love charli xcx and tyler the creator and so on, but i don’t think you should restrict yourself to the top 40 and your daily life will likely be improved if you listen to all kinds of music, on the reg or least occasionally in an exploratory way. it also makes me sad when artists i’ve liked a while become popular online for a few songs but it seems like people new to the artist don’t bother listening to their earlier music or subgenre. i’m happy more people enjoy them but omg! like for example, charli XCX being seen as “new” by some people - but there’d be no brat without how i’m feeling now and pop 2, nor without pc music and SOPHIE. i actually suspect the percentage of people streaming apple who could tell you who SOPHIE is is probably depressingly low :( anyways, i’m no purist and of course have my own regular rotation but, i really really recommend exploring within different genres to find more of what you like. you might even be surprised! maybe you don’t like all kinds of country, but you learn you fuck with folk (or at least johnny cash, i mean, c’mon); maybe you think hyperpop is “too weird” for you but you discover some electropop you’re obsessed with. exploring music—“listening to everything”—is very worth it!
