More Likes & Dislikes

Another type of music I like, believe it or not, is alternative. The Fray, The Script, One Republic, is all groups I’ve listened to since I was pretty young. This is very surprising to some people since I listen to a lot of rap usually. I usually listen to alternative when I’m feeling a lot of things, or going to sleep. I like a lot of the old songs they’ve made and I still listen to them today. Another type of music that I like is R&B Hip Hop. It is a very different style than alternative, but it makes me feel the same way as I do listening to Alternative. Some artists I like are Miguel, Chris Brown, Trey Songz, and BeyoncĂ©. One type of music I do not enjoy is country. I don’t like how it sounds, the lyrics, or just the idea of it honestly. I think it all sounds the exact same, with acoustic guitars and country accents. I also don’t like Pop music. I think that it is very over- played and all the same. I think that most people enjoy pop & country, & that makes me not like it. I like listening to my own music, not music that everyone else is listening to. I have no problem with showing some people new music, but I like being different from everyone else in what I listen to.

Favorites

My taste in music is very broad. I will listen to almost anything if it has a good beat or good lyrics. I listen to Rap music most of the time. Most people don’t like rap because of the language and the things they sing about. Not all rap music promotes violence, drugs and sex. You can find a rap about anything. Some rappers I listen to are J. Cole, Meek Mill, Kid Ink, Waka Flocka, Gucci Mane, Ace Hood and pretty much a little bit of everyone really. Ace Hood is one of my favorites. He sings about real things and real situations that have happened in the world. In one of his songs, he talks about the government, and how his Mother has died of cancer. He tells about how he grew up in a bad neighborhood and the things he had went through. He also brings up things that happened in history, like Sandy Hook and the Aurora Shooting. Even though he uses profanity, he gets his point across very strongly. In another song, he talks about his life before he became rich, and how he earned the money and fame he has today. Not all rappers sing about bad things, but they sing about the truth. He sings about how much he loves his daughter and that he would do anything for her. Not all rappers are selfish and violent like they come off to be. This is why he is one of my favorite artists.

introduction

My name is Kaylee & I go to Diamond Oaks. In my blog I will be talking about different kinds of music that I listen to, and artists that I like. I’m 16 years old and a junior in high school. I am in Chef Training. I have blonde hair and green eyes. I hate dressing up & I always wear sweatshirts and sweatpants. I have 4 best friends named Hannah, Nikki, Jenna and Colleen. I live with my Mom, Dad, and older brother Nathan. I like to sleep, drive around, and obviously listen to music. I love to travel almost anywhere to get away from Cincinnati. During the summer I like to go camping, Kings Island and the beach. After high school, I want to go to college and get a good job. I still have no idea what career I want to choose. I love watching Pretty Little Liars and my favorite movie is The Dark Knight. I like anything that is the color purple. I listen to almost any kind of music except country.
