My Music CD

1.     Lil Wayne – A Milli Rap/RnB

2.     The Script ft B.o.B – Walk Away RnB

3.     Devlin – Marching Through The Fog Grime

4.     Eminem – 25 to life Rap

5.     Lil Wayne ft. Cory Gunz – 6”7’ Rap/RnB

6.     Lil Wayne – Bill Gates Rap/RnB

7.     Devlin – Brainwashed Grime

8.     Akala – Shakespeare Rap

9.     The Script – the man that cant be moved Indie/Rock

10. Sean Kingston ft B.o.B – hope is a river RnB

11. Tinie Tempah – Miami 2 Ibiza RnB

12. Tinie Tempah – let go RnB

13. Kanye West ft Jay-Z – H.A.M RnB/Rap

14. Kanye West – Monster RnB/Rap

15. Kanye West – Hell of a life RnB/Rap

16. Jay-Z – 99 Problems RnB/Rap

17. Bon Jovi – Living on a Prayer Rock/Pop

The main genre that I listen to as we can see form the list above is RnB/Rap. I like this music because the beat and lyrics appeal to me, and music always puts me in a better mood. The stereotypical person that would listen to this genre of music would be the ‘mainstream’ sort of person. This music genre is very popular, which makes it hard to stereotype a typical person who would listen to this genre.
