is my musical taste different from people

How does your musical style taste differ from your family (parents/siblings) or friends? Discuss your reaction to this type of music and explain why you dislike it, but your family member (or friend) likes it.

My musical taste is different from my mother because she doesn't like R&B and she doesn't like my sister's music because my sister likes rap. My mom reacts strangely to our music tastes because it seems improper to her. She's also new to that style and doesn't like the profanity and themes that the songs contain.

I don't like my mom's music because it sounds weird. Vietanamese is a tonal language, in which pronunciation is super important in order to convey meaning. That means that songs can't be that expressive or the words may be something else. This explains why all her songs sound the same to me.

music growing up

What style of music did you grow up listening to? Do you still listen to this type of music? Why or why not?

Growing up, I listened to whatever my mom liked because I had no free will in that decision. Besides, I did not know any other type of music to recommend. If it wasn't my mother playing music, it'd be my sister. My mother listened to Vietnamese music, that had hints of folk and EDM in the instrumentals. They are pretty weird. They replay all the time because my mom prefers remixes. My sister loves R&B and rap, and I listen to more of her music.

I like my sister's choice of music more because it's English. Also, they're pretty enjoyable to hear on car rides.

I LOVE QUEENS

What is your preferred style of music? Who is your favorite musical artist? Why? What appeals to you about the style or art?

I don't listen to music as a hobby but I love listening to music when there is no sound in the background. I cannot focus without having any sort of white noise, excluding the noise from my peers. I feel like time is slowed down when I'm doing work without music. However, when a song is playing and ends, that's about three minutes that passed and I didn't realize. It's a time checker for me and it's also great since it's music I like... speaking of music tastes:

I like all types of music, depending on the artist and how well they sing over the instrumentals. The only genres that don't go by this rule is country. I hate country, it sounds cheesy to me. I guess the genre I listen to the most is R&B. Now... to go onto my favorite artists.

I consider a favorite artist as someone I repeatedly go back to and keep up with. I only have one person like that; Ariana Grande. I mean... I listen to people like August Alsina, Kehlani, and Bryson Tiller but they're not "favorites."

I love Ariana because her music is very easy to listen to at any time. None of her songs get extremely annoying over time except maybe Popular Song, Put Your Hearts Up, and Bang Bang... which are all singles and were made to be overplayed. I dislike Heatstroke too but only because Ariana is wasted on that song. She could've done so much more.

Her albums are so fun to listen to, especially Dangerous Woman. My favorite album, however, is My Everything because it's more nostalgic and I feel more connected to that album.

Ariana is so appealing because she's so unproblematic aside from that doughnut incident. She supports many charities, minorities, women, and inspires children. She doesn't really inspire me but I really like what she tries to do. Her mix of R&B and pop music is so niiiiiiiice.
