Me as a consumer of music
Music in today’s generation is a major impact for the
majority of people’s lives. With many different genres of music and different
artists becoming musicians, it’s difficult to find a favourite artist. Listening
to music at stressful times can help boost your mental state with loud beats
that sound great on a loud speaker. It can also help motivate your physical
state. When at the gym, playing blaring music through your earphones, you
forget about everything around you and go into your own little world and
exercise better than without music. Even writing this essay I am listening to
music, which shows how much of an impact it has to us all.
Depending on the song or album will depend on whether it is
purchased either as a physical copy or not. Classical bangers that are used on vinyl
players are the only albums I will personally purchase as a hard copy. Because
there are so many new songs being released daily, it would cost a fortune to
buy all these songs, which is the main reason why I download songs using a YouTube
converter. As well as that, it is easier to play the song through my phone onto
a wireless speaker than having a hard copy that isn’t compatible.
My favourite artists are Young Thug, Fetty Wap, and Migos which are all known to compose and perform ‘Hip-hop’
music. The beats in which Fetty Wap performs too flow extremely well which
makes the song sound good is why I listen to him a lot. Young Thug has some extraordinary
lyrics that suggest one meaning but actually mean something else, and Migos
just work well together in performing great songs. I also like Garage music as I
enjoy the different beats you can use as well as the freedom is which the music
you can make. Making Drum n Bass is a genre I like listening to occasionally
but at a festival because the loudness and the atmosphere can be amazing and
whilst you are not in a sober state and music sounds differently too when you
are sober.
As I have grown up, the main factor of the reason I listen to
the music I do now is because of the people I associate with. The music I listen
to now compared to five years ago is different because I have been shown
different genres by other people and recognised that other music genres are
good as well as the ones I would listen to at that point. Other musicians that
become popular throughout time influence the whole music industry because once
they are more known and get favouritism by other consumers like myself, they
can adapt the music they perform to make you see it in a way that they want you
too rather than how you would like too. It is harder for this too happen though
as there is so many popular artists in todays generation.
There isn’t a specific genre of music that I don’t particularly
like. If I song hasn’t got a catchy beat or the musician doesn’t include some
lyrics that are smartly composed then then is a high chance I wont like the
song. Although, when songs try to include more than one genre in a song, it can
become too much and ruin the whole song completely. This doesn’t happen often
but when it does happen, it can rarely create a positive impact.
