Music

Another post!!! Totally didn't forget we hadda write a bunch of these looooong and interesting blog things and not just silly little posts...

ANYWHO-

I was rhell unsure as to what I was gonna write for this post, but as I was listening to music while doing some other school work, I was like:

"Yeah, dah go work!"

So this is my little rant on Music :3

First and foremost, I doh understand how people does judge people based on the type of music they does listen too...Like I get not liking a certain genre of music or a certain artiste, but COME ON&#*$(@

Like nobody is forcing you, well for the most part, to listen what they listen to, so WHY GIVE A FLYING FOOT!?!?!

Sighhhhhh

This just has me thinking about myself and the music I like and how I really got into liking it. Now, growing up where I grew up things were a bit on the weird side. My parents were never eccentric quite like my extended family, so while yes, I did hear things like Reggae or Bhajans or even foreign Pop music growing up in the background, I never found music I would consider me. It felt quite ostracizing if ah being honest, you know, not being able to vibe with the kids my age, or the cousins and aunts or uncles in the family.

It was in primary school, around when I was in Standard 5, when I really sought out what kinda music I would be into and be proud to say I was into. Now before anything, I'd say that I grew up on the internet, meaning, it was probably what influenced my taste overall. Now this could be considered a bad thing, but I'd like to say it opened by horizons on varying things. I got into watching fan-made music videos, comic dubs and animation memes, which got me to hear music that was foreign (it was mostly american music loooool).

One day, while having lunch with a one of those kinda teacher teachers (i think is OJT???), we talked about out music tastes. At that point I had never really figured out any particular genre I was really into, so I said a song by one of the bands my brother was listening too ---> (WHICH WAS CENTURIES BY FALL OUT BOY; MY EMO ARC HAD BEEN LONG PROPHESIED) I thought it was cool to say something I had never seen locally, but all I got from her was a "ehHh" kinda reaction, which made me feel kinda awkward about it. So, after the topic was never really brought up again, I took it upon myself to find radio songs and download the ones I liked or what I had heard in those youtube videos. (mostly those pop songs that were heard on the radio anyways)

(EXAMPLES;)

Havana - Camilla Cabello

Closer - The Chainsmokers ft. Halsey

Attention - Charlie Puth

Roar - Katy Perry

Shape of You - Ed Sheeran

I still would give a lil head bop to songs now and again, but there weren't any songs that were hummable or have the ability to be stuck in my head at inconvenient times of my life. (oddly specific, I know, but you know what I mean...)

So, flashforward to 2018, where lil ole me is transitioning from primary to secondary school. Here, I was lead down the rabbit-hole of foreign music, which I think more or less altered my personality and also possibly made a very odd first impression to my fellow classmates. Thus began my journey into the infamous K-POP.

RIght IRGHT i know wha yuh gonan say, but zip it, we not judging anyone right now. please and thank yew.

Anywho, who would have thought this pipeline would have started and ended where it is today... So, with the glorious Jungkook in my ear, I started my journey. Obviously, I went back and tried out Western music and by actually listening to it, I found songs I liked and even bands. With this new found knowledge, and my mind expanded to listen to everything, I started my journey which lead me into listening to things I would have never associated myself with in the past. (Best believe when Spotify was made available, I enjoyed the H-E-Double Hockey Sticks outta it!!!)

(GENRE EXAMPLES;)

Rock

Musicals

Metal

Indie

Hyperpop

So yeah, I'm not into any one genre of music now, I just listen to what sounds good, and yeah by that, I mean I don't even really bother with lyrics if it sounds good.

Not sure if what im typing up right now is making and sense and is of any interest to anybody, but whatever... Google says the shortest amount of words need in a blog is about 300 and this surpasses that, so I think I'll leave this as is. - A

Right...

This is going to be a really bad start to a blog that I am going to:

Totally forget about.

Just check in here every few months.

Obsess over and continuously take time out of my day to update.

NOW

Since this blog reminds me of the times I had to write journal entries for Performing Arts, I will be OH SO CHARMING and write how I does talk.

I've gotten praise (from like two people but that really doh matter) for how I did phrase and structure my journals, so I am so gonan embrace the dialect and vernacular, and all the other fancy shmancy communication studies topics thingies, and just do me.

Very unsure if this would count as a great intro to my blog, but hey you're reading what I'm writing and if you're this far, something must be working :3
