For me it's Hip Hop AINEC. Favorite artist is Kanye, but I do listen to a pretty broad range of music. I also enjoy pop and R&B quite a bit, I like punk but more pop-punk kinda stuff like Good Charlotte, Blink 182, and the newer wave of trap rappers who are inspired by that early 2000's emo pop-punk sound. I even like country. The only genres I don't listen to are Metal and EDM without vocals. Cashmere Cat is my favorite EDM artist but most his songs have vocalists on it, I just can't really listen to music without vocals unless it's classical background music. I hate the really aggressive dubstep type of music without vocals. I love the 1940's style of music that they play at Disneyland. I'm also a weird person who listens to Christmas music all year round.

I'm metal, rock and pop (80s-2000s), and jazz in that order.

Jazz will always win with me.

Metal is great when you're in the gym or need to get pumped up/get ready to rip off a mother f***er's head.

Yogi Berra explains Jazz.
Interviewer: Can you explain jazz?
Yogi: I can't, but I will. 90% of all jazz is half improvisation. The other half is the part people play while others are playing something they never played with anyone who played that part. So if you play the wrong part, its right. If you play the right part, it might be right if you play it wrong enough. But if you play it too right, it's wrong.
Interviewer: I don't understand.
Yogi: Anyone who understands jazz knows that you can't understand it. It's too complicated. That's what's so simple about it.
Interviewer: Do you understand it?
Yogi: No. That's why I can explain it. If I understood it, I wouldn't know anything about it.
Interviewer: Are there any great jazz players alive today?
Yogi: No. All the great jazz players alive today are dead. Except for the ones that are still alive. But so many of them are dead, that the ones that are still alive are dying to be like the ones that are dead. Some would kill for it.
Interviewer: What is syncopation?
Yogi: That's when the note that you should hear now happens either before or after you hear it. In jazz, you don't hear notes when they happen because that would be some other type of music. Other types of music can be jazz, but only if they're the same as something different from those other kinds.
Interviewer: Now I really don't understand.
Yogi: I haven't taught you enough for you to not understand jazz that well.

In general, I’d say rock but it runs the gamut of sounds and decades within the genre.

I like a fair amount of metal, specific types of country, particularly outlaw and ‘southern rock’ and some hip-hop, along with other odds and ends. I feel I’ve listened to less and less hip-hop the last few years. Very few artists still putting out enjoyable hip hop.

Hard rock to metal, but it really depends on my mood. I can go from QOTSA to Slayer to Primus to Ghost to Royal Blood to Tool in an hour. Lately been a lot of Tool & Rammstein though.

(If wanna watch a rather mesmerizing drum performance, check this one out: )

Blues, Blues-rock, Fillmore-era psychedelic bands, Soul, Funk, Reggae, Southern Soul, certain Punk and New Wave.
Really more by artist album or song then by Genre.
More recently groups like Tedeschi-Trucks and North Mississippi All-Stars.
90GB of tracks on mSD card in my phone
