[@Buddha] Listened to most of it. ;P

I do tend to listen to different instrumental backgrounds overall. But I do find's Joey Badass's flow and wordplay fairly engaging. As for underachievers, that's somebody I'm already familiar with.

Since we're still on rap/hip-hop. Here's just a few artists of my own. :P

As for a question and discussion everyone can join in, I've had this discussion with other people online, and with family and friends. 

[b]Do you listen to more happy/positive lyrical music or do you listen to more negative/sad sounding music? And why?[/b]

I've always personally felt like music in nearly every genre just sounds better when it comes from a desperate/dark place. Most sad music, whether musically or only lyrically (when they use happier beats to hide a darker message) just seems like the artists are trying harder. Though maybe the point of happy music isn't to be thought provoking. I suppose since I do pay attention to lyrics probably more than most, though I've even gotten a little more lenient past my teen years. I still can have good music utterly ruined by the lyrics. I know everyone has different genre tastes, but most genres has plenty of both positive and negative. I just have always leaned toward the latter. 

Also I just looked up something that actually kind of surprises me, that kind of drifts to another topic altogether. Apparently rock sells twice as much as pop music, which really makes me amused since pop music is apparently not all that [b]popular[/b] anymore. When I know I've been into more than a few. "Pop is loved by the most people, that's why it's called pop!" discussions back in my day.
