Today's Music
In an age of error the most influential thing in a child and or a teenagers life is music. Whether it be Reggae, Hip Hop, Gangster Rap, R&B, Oldies Rock, Latin, or Heavy Metal it still has a way to overpower a persons mind no matter how old they are. Right now pretty much everybody that I talk to when I am on the Internet like Rap. I don't understand how people could listen to non-stop cursing and fast-paced lyrics. Even though my opinion of the music isn't so great the singers have to get some credit for being able to recite poetry in such a manner. I prefer the heavier stuff like Slipknot, KoRn, or Kittie because I enjoy talented people who play their own instruments, and personally I like very loud music. Reggae is well known because of one group and that group is Bob Marley and The Wailers. I happen to like them because they pretty much set the standards for a band that are known to people as Sublime. They are sort of a rock "n" roll/reggae band with hit songs like "What I Got" and "Santeria". My friends and I sometimes refer to Bob Marley as the "God" of music. Another popular style of music is the Pop music category. I think it features a bunch of no talent boy groups like N'Sync* and the Backstreet Boys. It is artists like
They are known for having songs that deal with death and other dark things. The tabloids say that rock/heavy metal is too violent for kids to listen to. It is the worst form of music because the different terms they use for killing someone is outrageous. I think that when they did what they did, they had no clue what they were doing. The tabloids are always doing things to put down heavy metal music down. The only reason they do the shootings is not because they listen to a certain kind of music; it is because they have weak minds that can't handle the lyrics of the band. All I know is that their most recent album features a guy on the cover receiving a lobotomy by machines. The tabloids not only blame the music but they also blame the movies. The people of the United States do not approve of their music or concerts so the band is now banned from all 50 states. They are a band that I listen to because I like the way the singer alters his voice to sound all weird like a witch. this who are ruining our countries youth. I don't think that it is right for the tabloids to go out every time something happens with shootings at schools and blame it on the rock music. The newspapers add to the affect by talking about how heavy metal music and Goth music are bad for the child's mind. I think that they should blame some of it on rap. The tabloids make everything seem worse than it really is, or they never really uncover the real facts.
