Artists/Bands/Groups you just can't get into?

[MvP]

Common

Common was one of mine until I listened to Be and Finding Forever. I don't like his other albums as much though.

[Irish]

Everyone in high school listened to Hollywood undead.

It still makes no sense to me

[relaxedanderson]

Everyone around me listens to alternative. I just can't get into it. Coldplay. I must be the only person in my crew of friends that doesn't like Coldplay. I'm still stuck in 60s with all that psychedelic music.

That's a good thing.

Why try hard to like Coldplay? If you fail then you've wasted your time listening to god-awful music and if you succeed then you end up as a Coldplay fan.

That's a textbook definition of a lose-lose situation there.

I've tried so hard to get into The Roots but I can't. Only song I really like is In The Music.

Have you listened to "Phrenology" or "Things Fall Apart" or "Illadelph Halflife" CDs?

[Len B]

At first I couldn't get into a lot of Underground music until I started actually looking into the lyrics and stuff.

And honestly I have never liked... Biggie. I just never really liked his music. I only like a couple of songs.

Wut...

I can't think of how someone couldn't like Biggie if they listened to rap. There's nothing odd/annoying about his music whatsoever.

[Dan The Man]

Other than the Black Star album I could never get into Talib Kweli. He's got skills obviously but something about his flow just annoys me.

[Epidemik]

For some reason i could care less about Jay-Z's music.

I find him to be an intelligent guy, i saw his latest interview on the Bill Maher show he's also pretty funny, but I could care less for his music. Maybe it's because he always talks about New York or something.

[Fox1994]

Wut...

I can't think of how someone couldn't like Biggie if they listened to rap. There's nothing odd/annoying about his music whatsoever.

Except that it's all the same "I'm gonna shoot you up" "I used to sell crack" "I'm great at twisting-out bitches" stuff.

Good thing I'm tryna get out of rap and into reggae. I don't like Rebelution. All-white reggae group from SoCal? See Sublime.

[1ke]

I dont know why I cant get into the white reggae thing in general. I remember when it was the thing to know and listen to sublime. I never could.

I grew up listening to the real Reggae music. Black Uruhu, Barrington Levy, Desmond Dekker. Maybe that had something to do with it.

[Fox1994]

^Right. That's my shit. I'm not big on Sublime, or Matisyahu even... But they're better than Rebelution. Granted, I never listen to Sublime, but I'm not gonna cry if "Doing Time" (Summertime cover) comes on, either.

[BUCK3YE5]

I cant really get into the Wu Tang Clan. Idk I like a couple songs but they all sound the same.

There are a couple others just can think of them right now lol.

[Fox1994]

I just respect the Wu Tang, because they have songs I like. Like "Ain't Nuttin' ta Fuck Wit" has got to be one of my favorite songs ever. It just has a certain gangsta quality to it...

Yeah I feel odd for being that way but I speak the truth. I am the only person I know that feels this way.

[Epidemik]

Mos Def is another one. I love his song Ms. Fat Booty Pt 1 & 2 and a couple other songs i have on deck but ive heard most of his albums and i want to like them but i just can't get into any of it

[Esjay]

How could you NOT like Biggie? Not bashing you just amazed. I could listen to him every second of my life and be totally okay with it.

I'll listen to pretty much anything provided it sounds to me like it required some intelligence to make. That's my only beef with a lot of todays music - I feel like my retard cousin could write the same shit with little to no effort.
