My playlist is mostly rock, some metal, punk, pop, and of course Alizee is in a genre of her own. No rap tho. i cant stand rap, or country for that matter. But i do have some johnny cash on my playlist. It just really depends on whether or not the music sounds at least half way decent, and rap today sounds like shit

while i don't really listen to rap, i must say that i enjoy what they call "old-school rap"

as far as i'm concerned, i agree with you; rap like that does not exist anymore

would old school rap be 90's rap? I like most rap right up until ~2003 - or whenever 50 cent made it big.. the new stuff today is just annoying..

I have about 80% alizee songs in my collection, because when I dont want to listen to her I usually turn on the radio or use Yahoo's radio (music.yahoo.ca/com).. there is a music.yahoo.fr but it wont let me listen to any of the music there unless I live in france..

I'll listen to anything but chinese/french/new american rap, country and emo (so called "punk rock") music.

You should listen to some french or chinese rap, it sounds so funny, and not the good funny.

my entire collection - http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/7953/musicyj5.jpg

Haha, I admit I like some rap. But definitely the older stuff more so. I'm talking about groups like The Sugar Hill Gang. They are awesome. But there are a few modern rap songs out there that I'll listen to, not so much for the lyrics, but I like the music itself.

Alizée is definitely my black sheep.

I listen to a lot of indie rock, mostly. Some mainstream modern rock, too, but almost nothing from Top 40. It's just too cheesy and over-the-top for me.

I have a passing interest in other styles - folk, blues, bluegrass, classical, metal, non-mainstream hip-hop, etc. I really like just about anything, if it's well done.

Its sorta like I listen to, as long as it inspires me, and I like the music

I have played guitar most of my life, including doing session work for quite some time, as well as playing in multiple bands.
I am called upon to play what I am hired to play. Most of that is commercial music.
As a result, I listen to many different types of music, but don't buy very much as I am too busy making music.
I have everything I could find and buy on Alizee, which is the first artist I can remember buying music of in 30 years.
I listen to it all the time. Everything else, I'm paid to perform.
I would love to be able to do a French or European tour as one of her guitarists.

The session work I did was done before the artist got into the studio to sing.
I've played with Jeff Baxter of Steeley Dan/Doobie Bros., people from Marshall Tucker, L.A. session players, people from the group Boston, people from the "E" Street Band, country players like Steve Wariner, session players from Garth Brooks' band, Stu Kimble from Bob Dylan's band, former players from Gloria Estefan's band, etc. Usually, I don't find out much about these guys until after the session is over. It's just part of the business, no biggy, really.

With the "E" Street Band, I played with those people many times and use to play every week at Big Man's West, Clarance Clemmons' night club. Bruce and his band were there every week that we played there. They are local people from my area in N.J. and are regular guys. My wife used to work out with Bruce at a fitness club in Red Bank every day.
