You don't have to be intelligent to be into music, but you need to be open-minded and willing to listen to other views in order to be able to enjoy music as a whole.
I'm totally agree with this. I think that way, too, but if we take a look at the facts, I'm sure that ~90% of the people that listen to classical music have an IQ more than ~120 and only ~20% of the people who listen to Niki Minaj have got IQ more than ~120. So, you can't say if a person is dumb or smart just by the type of music that he listens to, but it can leave you a first impression of this person.
