'Your music taste is bad'

how would you describe your music taste? Trick question, you're OUTTA HERE!

this video doesn't really have any direction. a ramble if you will.

SUBSCRIBE & follow meh

not an ALBUM REVIEW / SINGLE REVIEW / ALBUM REACTION / FIRST REACTION / NEW MUSIC VIDEO / PLAYLIST / SONGS THAT MAKE YOU or anything from theneedledrop, fantano, shawn cee, blackyspeakz, degenerocity or SethEverman but a music animation video talking about all music and all artists.

so like, if you read this all the way, which I mean it's not very long half of it is just keywords and whatever. Ummm hmm let's see what can I tell you? Oh i've gotten into the newest fortnite season. I'm having a ton of fun actually last time I playd it was when it came out on PS4 so it's been a while. People don't know this about em but i'm actually a decently sized gamer. Maybe I can play some stuff on stream one day. Oh yeah I have a twitch account, go follow me there! This video was very rambly. Hence the playlist.

Great video! It's a shame that since I'm better at watching your videos than everyone else, nobody else will be able to enjoy it as much as me.

"I respect every music tas- IS THAT (insert artist/genre here) OMG HOW COULD YOU LISTEN TO THAT? 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀😭😭😭😭😭😭"

[xanatharstudios]

instead of pretending you like artists you don't know, just call that artist trash and proceed to call them a loser virgin

There's a quote by Hank Green that I think about whenever I see/hear someone insulting someone else's music taste.
"Don't ever rag on someone for their music taste. Music is such a glorious part of the human experience and literally no good can come from making it worse for someone."
I agree with him a lot. I think we'd all enjoy music more if people would cut out this taste flexing contest and just try to appreciate what other people enjoy. And if you don't like it that's fine but you don't have to be mean about it, just agree to disagree.

I hate when people tell me the music I like is bad. I just don't tell people what music I listen to nowadays

[ShoelessJP]

Thank you for speaking up against the gatekeeping in music listening culture. It really turns a lot of people off from getting into music, and it sucks!

[foluadeniyi]

"people suck" too fucking real

[KateIsNotAnAlien]

Literally any time in my life that I’ve said any specific music sucks, I’ve then listened to it and really enjoyed it. A big issue is too many people 1) define themselves by genre, thinking they have to be dedicated to [anything] genre and that genre only. And 2) too many people get caught up in the mainstream and don’t take a step back to see all the other music they’re missing out on.

[Crystal-xtsn]

The rap community is such a good example of this. Old-heads gatekeeping the entire genre because the "new rappers" don't write quadruple duple entendres, weirdo underground fans acting pretentious because they listen to people with less than 1000 streams on spotify, and self-titled "hip-hop heads" clowning on other people's takes because "their top 10 is not objectively correct."

[mam-wszy]

Leaving Album Of The Year definitevely was one of the best decisions I've ever done in my life. Now I can happily listen to stuff I actually enjoy instead of forcing myself to like OK Computer or feeling insecure about liking an artist with less than 70 user score.

[sachitechless]

It's so funny I hear people in music circles get worried they seem normie when the stuff they have on their most listened to are artists that are popular in music nerd circles but if you ask a random person on the stream they have no fucking clue what a Danny Brown is.

[wayneyea]

can’t go a bites ramble video without him mentioning that tame impala is just one dude

[thecluckster]

To me a good music taste is just not limiting yourself to one or a few genres and trying a bunch of different sounds.

[bigupbatesy]

PREACH KING, PREACH!! On a real though I’m glad you’ve made this video, being a weezer fan is hard man..

[DeluluSeungberrystay]

As someone who regularly listens to Kpop, you would not BELIEVE the amount of gatekeeping that lies around in fandoms, like the amount of times older listeners (cough cough ARMYS cough cough) have told me "You can't listen to (abc) beacuse haven't known them long enough!!" Is insane, like, bro, how am I gonna 'know them for long enough' IF I CANT EVEN LISTEN TO THEM (BY YOUR LOGIC) BEACUSE "You're not old enough!!"

And that's I don't really regularly interact with kpop group fandoms, besides Skz and Xdinary heros. Not saying that all kpop group dwellers are like this, but definitely watch out.

[paulbarnes]

This video is hillariously accurate and I can laugh at myself because some of the things apply to me but I think the video itself proves its own point because I recgonized the song from the Donkey Kong Country Map screen in it lmao

[DanielP-jqdj]

0:34 Hey! That album is a Masterpiece!

[darienb]

This gatekeeping happens all over the damn place as well, espeically video games. There are too many times where people will build their entire personality off of not liking a specific thing, and it gets toxic FAST. And then they wonder why no one plays their game. It's like "you chased everyone away, the fuck did you think would happen?"

If you wanna get more people into your thing, the best thing to do is encourage and guide them into it. Let them explore it for themselves. You CANNOT force people to do it, it never works. And if they don't wanna broaden their horizions? Well, then that's their desision! Maybe they'll pick it up when they feel ready, maybe they never will. But just... guide them.

[qhairullahrusyaidy]

Honestly, yeah. I do lived that "enjoy whatever you want" kinda mentality because if I open to listen something that was intrigued, I might leave the expectation for what am I about to listen. I'm more of a Rock kinda of guy but I do step in to Hop-Hop, IDMs, and Electronic a bit and it was fun.

[tribaltreegoat]

I dont listen too much outside death metal and jazz
