First songs I ever heard were from my sister -Selena 90's Hip hop and Pop music

First artist I started to get into has a kid- Prodigy ..was the first ... then well I grew up in the 1996-2003 years a lot of Rock and Nu metal

around the same time my dad introduced me to these bands called...The beatles Led zeppelin and Black Sabbath deep purple and pretty much the entire gammit of 60's 70's Rock...That in turned got me into darker and heavier stuff like Death and black metal stoner and sludge

around 2003 when IMO music was at its lowest that hip hop seed from the beginning spured up again and I started to get back into Hiphop and rap

not to toot my own horn but I didn't seem around the time I was in high school a lot of kids would like listen to Malovent Creation (Death metal) then bump some like Busta Rhymes and E-40 ...that was me

after that its all a blurr... IMO there are 2 different types of people Advent Music lovers and Passive music lovers

my music taste grew like a tree with many branches and I was just on a musical journey trying to find and look for anything that I liked didn't matter what style tempo or genera

Eminem - This guy was my introduction to hip hop, and his music ruled my life from when I was like 8 till the early days of high school.

Nickelback - Wouldn't have got into metal without them.

Metallica - Got into thrash metal through Kill 'Em All, I think. Once again, that was all thanks to Batty since I remember him repping the album back when I joined. And any thrash metal I ever listened to, I got from Batlord's threads/journals, and then looked around myself.

SOPHIE - Thanks Goofle. This artist introduced me to this type of pop. The more weirder side. I started taking an interest in weird pop from that moment on, and this led to Kesha.

Kesha - Batty brought this pop artist to my attention, and now mainstream pop rules my life. I always looked down on it, so this was pretty big for me. I also am aware I was a hypocrite, since I liked Nickelback. But you know how it is.

Dolly Parton - TBD

These bands/artists are in chronological order for the music that shaped me.

The first band I ever really listened to was Metallica. It was my parents favorite artist growing up. And when I first started listening to them I couldn't stop. The music blew me away.

My brother started this small "business" of buying and selling Zunes. He loaded one up with music and gave it to me. I for the most part just listened to the really big named artists. Artists like Queen, Metallica, and ZZ Top. But I found on my device a band called Sick Puppies. And while the band was typical teenage angst, it was so incredible to find a band singing all the emotions I was feeling.




Then my sophomore year of high school came and a lot of really bad stuff happened. I began a slippery slope into a lot of ****ed up ****. Instead of telling you why these artists were important, the reason is too personal, I'm just going to list them. Nirvana, QOTSA, Slipknot, Seether and Stone Sour.

The final band I discovered that changed everything was Tool. I was blown away by them. The way the music sounded was enveloping. The way Maynard sang was incredible. The lyrics were pretentious, but unique and different from any other artist I've ever heard. I needed more.

That's the music that shaped my life.

Her voice and songs made me to explore new genres, to listen carefully lyrics, to use music as medicine.
