What is your favorite genre of music?

I’m seated right now in this room, just me here in it, with an airpod in my ears listening to some podcast by a very known man of God – his messages are very relatable and, resonate with me.

I’ve been listening for almost 2 hours right now, and it’s unusual as it’s just my first try  listening to a podcast – you’d wonder why but, I’m trying to cultivate new hobbies and it’s one.

In front of me lies some house entities and, so solemn the room is, one would hear a pin dropped – I love silence,I don’t dwell in chaos. Chaos only keeps trouble and, in confusion.

Just like the genre of music I listen to, I don’t do well with noisy sounds with no shitty lyrics – It’s of no use listening to a music that doesn’t impact your life positively.

I was listening to a song on Spotify some months back and suddenly, a song just shuffled through, fast beat, with words being mumbled by the artiste. I

I struggled to hear what the artiste was conveying – I immediately shook my head in disbelief, why ? No message relayed to its audience – just vibes and rhythm with no lyrics hearof whatsoever – What’s the point of a letter with no intent?

I’m always startled when people listen to some specific music – of course, music is to lighten the mind and soul, for entertainment. But, aside from the vibe, it should be something worth resonating with. 

People these days don’t care about the lyrics, they just play and consume – forgetting the lyrics of music is so powerful that it can affect your lives negatively.

You would ask why? Cause’ ‘Words are powerful’. And, lyrics are constructed  using words.

So, for me, my genre of music includes slow though fast paced music which has in it a message conveyed through and which can ofc not only delight me but, impact me.

A genre like RnB(Giveon) , Dave songs, Tems – these artistes speak to your soul, engaging you with their voices like they sit close to youu.

They make their music on specific issues that resonates with you and with every lyrics, you’d recognise they are only impacting your positively and how to deal with chaos, not drown it.
