I am appalled that some people would honestly only listen to one genre of music. I doubt anyone only listens to hip-hop but if they do they are ignorant people. I myself listen to a variety of music, and hip-hop happens to be one of them. I like a lot of rock specially old school rock. Nirvana, Metalica, and others just to name a few. Now a days I sometimes listen to Linkin Park because of the melodies in them. I also always have liked Blink-182, they are funny but still have great emotion in their music. If anyone in this thread claims to only listen to hip-hop they are basically shooting themselves in the temples. Hip-hop is like the language English in the notion that it is a blend of many types of music into one theory of substance.
