I'm a newbie here, so my opinion may not be as valid as the veterans here.

When I first came to these forums, I really wanted to talk about all of the types of music I liked. Thankfully, there was a board specific to everything I enjoyed. However, after reading some of the comments, I feel like I am a bit out of place at times. Yes, I do listen to Cunninlynguists, Inverse, and at times Immortal Technique, but I do like stuff from T.I at times and I do like some stuff from kind of mainstream rappers. That and I do like listening to Green Day and such along with stuff like the old Metallica.

However, I feel like if I were to say something like "Did you like this new Drake song," or " How good was that album by The Fray," I'd get laughed at, scoffed at, and basically be run out of the forums. Of course, I'd get recommended other music, but it would be given along the lines of "That's such a ****** band, you should listen to *insert band name*" or something.

But that's just how I see it at this point. Also, as a newbie, I don't really have much say in all of this.
