Uh, James Brown isn't jazz but he is awesome. And I'm guessing by screamo, you mean any kind of music with screamed / grunted / strangulated / whispered / unclean in general vocals instead of actual screamo?
i grew up in eastern europe
my dad was obsessed with american sulture and music
i knew worRAB to all the queen pet shop boys and modern talking and sandra when i was like 8 :]
...when i left 3 years ago the ultimate hip-hop was black eyed peace lol...
I would neverlisten to 50 cent, i cant do it i dont know why. but other than that i can i will listen to anything else i even have some classical, and jazz on my ipod to listen to from time to time.
I generally tend to not listen to music made by white people. Not that I planned it that way, or that i'm racist. I just took an inventory the styles of music that I like and the respective artists and discovered that they were dominated by People of African descent.
Exactly! When I think about it, there's no genre I would never listen to... except maybe happy hardcore.
There are some I know little about and some I would tend to avoid/ignore, but if someone says "Listen to xxx band", I'm not going to refuse because I don't tend to like the genre.
