[QUOTE="goodjohnjr, post: 1026348, member: 73546"] *Jibber Jabber Alert* Yeah, I grew up in a house without rap / country / metal, fortunately there was a variety of other music genres that my parents had on old records. So I grew up always listening to a variety of other music genres & later on music in other languages. In the minority community I grew up (a mostly segregated part of a dirty South (Southern) small city (really a town in my opinion), even though official segregation is not in place, its impacts are still clear & present), people in my community usually only listened to rap & R&B & gospel music, pretty much anything else was looked down on (especially country music, which they considered to be music for only white people 😁), and they would make fun of you for listening to music outside the norm (especially country music). So I was the odd one out who listened to other music genres too & mostly music genres outside the norm, with a bit of rap & R&B et cetera mixed in. I never got into country music though, I guess the lack of exposure & the stigma left an impact; I do have a few country-ish songs, maybe country hybrid songs, and maybe a few songs considered to be country (Take Me Home, Country Roads (anime version), et cetera). I did not watch much BET growing up because it was too stereotypical, among other issues my parents and I had with it, so I grew up getting most of my music from VH1 & MTV & the radio. As I got old enough to find music myself on TV, cassettes, radio, et cetera, I continued listening to more rock / pop / alternative / easy listening / a little jazz & blues / et cetera. Then in the internet era when genres seemed a thing of the past, I would find various types of music in various languages (French, Spanish, German, Japanese, Italian, Esperanto, Portuguese, Korean, et ceterea) here & there, through anime & international online radio & movies & TV shows & later YouTube et cetera. Anyway, thanks for sharing, we do need more rap & R&B & blues & jazz et cetera around here too; I try to share some sometimes. I am not sure if this counts as cerebral rap or not, but here is something I found during an Adult Swim / Toonami TV commercial break when watching anime: Society Of Numbers - Split (Official Music Video): [MEDIA=youtube]J9cnFnjyJQw[/MEDIA] Society Of Numbers - Split: [SPOILER="Society Of Numbers - Split"][MEDIA=youtube]aOFbwqNCQwE[/MEDIA][/SPOILER] [/QUOTE]
