>mfw my best friend doesn't listen to music that's more than a year old
How can I stop him from doing this retarded shit? He's literally the definition of normie. Doesn't even listen to anything that is outside of the top 40, and isn't hip-hop or R&B.
kill him
Normie? That sounds like the definition of "avant-garde" to me. Always looking at what's in front, never at what's already past.
Depends what genre you're talking about. If he is a country or classical bitch he is going to like that shit.
Have fun with your life and let him do the same
Nigga I don't want to be a murderer and sent to prison.
What do you mean? He only listens to hip-hop and R&B, as I stated above.
No.
hiphop and r&b are literally the best sources for contemporary music. You're falling for the trap that popular=bad.
No one cares what you listen to, and you shouldn't care either, faggot. There's no way of telling someone to stop enjoying what they like without coming off as pretentious and narcissistic
drop him. broski's obviously not on yr level
I'm not saying that popular or new music is bad, I'm saying that the fact that he exclusively listens to that is stupid, as he's missing out on so much more.
people have different priorities
if they want to delve deeper into music they will
It's the same as telling someone reading hunger games to read greeks.
You're literally "you say justin bieber I say the beatles" youtube comment-tier right now you underage faggot
Hello darkness my old friend
There's nothing here so let it end
Tell him he isn't progressive with his listening habits. Just slowly brainwash him with Lil Uzi or Playboi Carti.
What. No. That's not what I'm saying. There's a difference between listening to music from a different time period, and listening to music that is delves deeper into a genre and is less accessible.
Alright look, anyone who likes hip-hop is expected to have listened to Wu-Tang Clan, right? And who the fuck doesn't know who Wu-Tang Clan is? And it's not like they're some pretentious 2deep4u type band, they're accessible as fuck.
Yet my friend refuses to spend an hour of his time to listen to Enter the Wu-Tang solely based on the fact that it's from 1993.
He's also the same with movies, won't watch anything released before 2000.
Your friend is a fag then.
Go out and do shit with him in a car. Play your music there, the best of the best of your music. If he isn't a thiccskulled normie he will stop acting like that.
This. He has no desire to dwell in the past, I commend this motherfucker.
>What. No. That's not what I'm saying
>efuses to spend an hour of his time to listen to Enter the Wu-Tang solely based on the fact that it's from 1993.
>based on the fact that it's from 1993.
You've contradicted yourself, and reinforced my post. You're mad he won't listen to old shit. I did not mischaracterize your faggotry
>And it's not like they're some pretentious 2deep4u type band, they're accessible as fuck.
>Once Upon A Time In Shaolin
They literally dedicated the last song to being inaccessible and edgy.
Some people aren't into music user. Let him be.
you can not give a shit. don't worry. you'll be fine.
I know.
I've tried that before, he always tells me to change it so something else like Drake or J Cole.
Okay now hold the fuck up. You used the example of Hunger Games and the Greeks. Now, you can't just start with the Greeks, you need to work your way up to that shit or you'll be left confused.
And this works with music too. But what I'm saying is that you can go back in time as much as you want, and you'll still be able to find music that is accessible to someone who is very new to the genre. And that's where Enter the Wu-Tang comes in.
It's like the difference between a well and a puddle nigga. A puddle covers a larger surface area, which represents the broad type of music in a genre. But a well is much deeper, and it represents the time that a genre has existed for.
I'm trying to get my friend to jump into the puddle, jump back in time, but still listen to mainstream music.
Wait no. Fuck. Trying to get my friend to jump into the well, not the puddle.
If he tells you to change it to drake.
>DONT FUCKING CHANGE IT
Your car
Your music
Yeah but that's a publicity stunt.
No.
That's true, I guess.
I give up, this guy is to fucking beta to show his friend good music. Or he just needs to get better fucking friends.
Sometimes I can't think of what music to show him, I try to pick out something that's similar to what he already listens to, to sort of ease him into it.
Just slowly do it.. you need to rape his ears. Gradually increase the volume to the music and play it on repeat. Make it so it's not obvious.
My best friend does exactly the same. I am really passionate about music and everytime I try to show him anything that isn't trap or mainstream rap he just loses his interest.
There is nothing you can do about it, some people just don't really care about music. I understand how you feel tho, sucks to spend so much time with a person without sharing something thats so important to you.
It's such a shame.
