So I wanted to apologize for neglecting the many other genres that music has. I know that pop/ soft rock is my main interest in terms of music, but I wanted to diverge off that path for a moment to take a look at the wonderful genre of hip hop and R & B. I'm hoping that you enjoy the songs that I'm going to be mentioning.
First off, I really like the integration of the lead singer from Weezer, Rivers Cuomo, and B.O.B. I feel like it is a really good combination. I can't believe that I didn't think of it first. It somehow really sounds good. I really enjoy the chorus on this song (of course). The verses are good, too, though.
Another good song from B.O.B. is "Airplanes." After I first heard this song, I fell in love. The melodies are really good. The lyrics are also really good. I find myself rapping along to the verses at times which some might find weird for me. It really isn't. I like rap a lot. I'm just very particular about the kind of rap that I listen to. You can listen to this song if you go here.
I never used to like Eminem. I hated his music and I hated him as a person. I've never seen the movie that he was in either. I can't even think of the name, if that tells you something. I really feel like his music has improved a lot, though. One of the songs that I can't stop listening to is by him. Enjoy.
I love Alicia Keyes. Both her new stuff and her old stuff is good. She's an amazing artist and she needs to keep up the good work. Keep writing music and singing songs, Alicia. You're good at it. On that note, one of the song, "Empire State of Mind" that she did with Jay-Z is a little different than her usual stuff. It's a really good song, though. I like the lyrics and the music video is really good, too.
I can't talk about Alicia Keyes without showing this video. I'm not going to say too much. It's amazing. Watch it.
