Yeah but why does it matter if they like or agree with you that your music is good? Who gives a sh*t, you're the one listening to it, you're the only one who has to like it.
Unless you HAVE to listen to their crap music for hours on end, then it can get very annoying and also for them if its the other way round..
I recently went on a trip where me and 11 other people my age were doing some 'independant living' stuff, living in a flat, making our own meals etc.
They played their ****ey autotuned gunk...
ALL. THE. TIME.
That being said, I never actually told them I thought (knew) that their singers were talentless goons, and they respected that I had different musical tastes to them. I am Ok with this. When people are all "DUDE WHY DON'T YOU LIKE THE SOUND OF A GIRL CHOSEN BY A RECORD COMPANY BECAUSE SHE HAS BIG TITS AND NOT BECAUSE SHE CAN ACTUALLY SING WHINING INTO A MICROPHONE AND HAVING A DULL ELECTRONIC BEAT PUT INTO THE BACKGROUND?!",
that is what
really grinds my gears.
Not appreciating other music is not being close minded. I'm allowed to have my own opinion on that; I don't have to like or appreciate it.
If you allow yourself to be blinded by ignorance to the extent that you refuse to admit that just because you don't like something it
can be good, I think that's pretty closed minded.
I don't like rap or soul, but I know that it's still good.
