    For those people who want to hear my interests, I made this meme regarding my music taste: I appreciate AJR, listen to Jon Bellion and think Golden Hour is a good song, all while saying that Taylor Swift is overrated (which she is; come on, listen to other artists). As a consequence, when I see that people decide that artists such as AJR, Imagine Dragons, Nickelback, and other artists are s**t and should not be listened to, I thought to myself: why?

      Maybe don’t shit on other peoples music taste if you are so bothered by people doing it to you. Young women got shit on constantly for liking Taylor Swift back in 2015, because all music girls liked was lame anyways. Let them have their music and we’ll let you have yours.

      Radioactive was so overplayed and the singer has such a distinct voice that I can't hear that voice anymore without reflexively gagging. I was a fan back in the day but once I hit that point, I never came back from it.

      I’ve never heard AJR but if you like them then they are fucking ace. I like incredibly repetitive bleepy music which makes a lot of people very angry indeed.
      I also think “Shake It Off” is a banger (apart from the talking bit).
      Thanks for posting this. It’s important that folks realise that taste is subjective

      You started criticizing other people's tastes in the back half of your comment so it's fair game. AJR is derivative trash written by people who are obsessed with infantilizing themselves to a concerning degree. Like what you like. But what you like is d-tier, emotionally maladapted millennial pandering poopoo

      I feel like Creed is this for me. I started really getting into it ironically, now I fucking love it unironically. My music snob friends will not even acknowledge it's funny. Joke's on them.

      Interesting! I'm a huge music fan and actually run a reasonably big promotional channel where we commonly promote future bass and trap. When I'm around others or driving with others, they don't always appreciate the "awesome" music I enjoy, aha. Oh and I hate 99% of the pop music on the radio. I despise it. Delete it. I really feel ya
