Burning in my headphones. What would be best, heavy metal, death metal, bass heavy hip hop? References wanted

I gotta make this post long enough so it won't get deleted...

I'm using a smartphone with the headphones connected to the headphone jack. I'd use my portable amp, but it doesn't have an hp jack input and the phone needs to use the USB-C port for charging.

So…. Burn in is 99.9% irrelevant, and certainly if you don’t like the sound of the headphones now, you won’t like it after 50-100 hours of burn-in.

If you still wanna try, white noise - equal amounts of content at any frequency is the most movement you could give the driver.
