Why Do We Hate Music?

A written piece on why we shouldn't hate on others love for music.


Why do we hate music? I’ll be more direct.  We all love a certain type of music and usually if an artist doesn’t fit in our category, we hate on them. Why? When I was younger I never herd what music people didn’t like, I knew what type of music they loved and that was a part of them and it helped explain who they were. Now, I Know more about what music people hate over what they love. For example I had a person complain about something I had written that I used Nicki Minaj as an example in. It wasn’t even specifically about Nicki Minaj I was just using her as an example. This person told me every reason why she hated Nicki Minaj and why she didn’t deserve to be in my writing. Why does my love for someone’s music bring out so much hate from some else? To me, this doesn’t make sense. I love rap and hip hop music! It is the highlight of my life getting to talk about it and write about it. I love all different kinds. That includes old school, Hard core, Drilla, even the softer stuff. I love it all! If there is an artist I’m not really a fan of, I just don’t talk about them, but, If I can convince one person to like one of the artists or songs that I rep I am so happy. We need to stop complaining about all the music we hate and start showing extra love for the music we do love. We should not judge a person for their taste in music or explain to them why they shouldn’t like an artist. We should rep the music and artists we love to those people and hope that they will fall in love with it too. Music is a beautiful thing, no matter what type it is. It helps us with our lives and our struggles. Rep the music that gets you through your day, don’t hate on the music that gets others through theirs.  Thanks for reading!
