The point of someone asking “what kind of music do you like?” is to get to know you better. Saying “everything” not only defeats the purpose of the question, it also halts the flow of the conversation. If you aren’t sure what you like, you can say something like
“I’ve been looking for new music, have you heard anything good lately?”

At least in this sense lolz
Option 1. put a few songs of a band/ genre you enjoy —> scroll down to the suggested list —> add away! you can always remove any songs that arent ur vibe
Option 2. Type in “key words” into the search —> have a look at other ppls playlists —> listen to what theyve got —> cherry pick songs/ bands u enjoy
Option 3. Ask your friends/ family/ WHOEVER for recommendations (it’s a great convo starter) —> you can listen to them right away or keep a recommendation playlist and add songs you actually like to ur own playlist

I’ve heard some of the coolest music from recommendations from friends. It shows you care and it gives you more common interests. plus, it also kind of gives you more of an idea of how they are as a person.

Log off Amazon prime and step into the real world. Go to a local physical store in your community. Look your neighbor in the eye and put money in their hand.
Go to a local venue and hear what musicians in your community are creating. Talk to them about it afterwards. Buy a T-shirt or cd or whatever they’re selling, they’ll make more money from that than from thousands of streams. Seriously, Spotify pays a fraction of a penny per stream.
Forget about Starbucks. Check out a local coffee shop instead. Learn your barista’s name and tip them.
Go to your local book store and library. Look around and see what book covers catch your eye. Ask employees for recommendations instead of just reading whatever’s trending on #booktok.
Go to your local museums, farmers market, theaters, restaurants, whatever your community has going on.
When you go local, you see your community in a new way. You make friends and feel more connected to the people around you.
You will discover new things organically instead of relying on an algorithm. You keep your money circulating in your community instead of making billionaires richer. You will have a greater appreciation for where you live.
P.S. Pay In Cash
