Also, I don't get why so many people see Macklmore as a guilty pleasure. Sure, he can be "corny", but I don't get why that's always considered a bad thing in Hip Hop music.
Macklemore isn't really bad on his own, it's more what he represents. He's like a physical embodiment of the gentrification in rap music and people (including myself to some extent), don't like what it's been leading to. Another thing is that he has the most goddamn annoying fans you will ever meet. They refuse to accept that there are other rappers that make good music besides Based Mac. I had a friend who went to see his tour and would only talk about how ignorant and bad B.I.G. Krit's set was, and couldn't even remember Talib Kweli's name.

I'm usually a fan of metal and rock (what with one of my all-time favorite bands being Metallica and all), but when I'm in the mood, I'll listen to rap like good 'ol Snoop Dogg, maybe a little Nas or Eminem.

If I'm craving rock but on the softer side, I'll listen to Counting Crows, Coldplay, Creed or maybe even Nickelback.

One thing I'm totally not ashamed of listening to when not listening to metal? Royksopp. Melody A.M. is one of the best albums I've ever listened to. I love how relaxed they sound.

I listen to metal and have been to Download Festival a shedload of times. For some reason I got drunk Sunday evening and ended up watching this song on repeat.


Thing is, I quite like this song.

I love listening to electronic music, and occasionally that includes dance remixes on Youtube or the odd bit of Skrillex. Some of this stuff makes me feel marginally dumber, girlier, or douchier just for listening to it, but I don't even care. Sometimes all I want is something dancey and braindead to bob my head to for a few minutes.

Going along the "band no one would expect me to like" train of thought: Paramore.

I'm a raver so yeah, not really my usual.
