Jazz? Is it the 1940s, again? Who the fuck cares about Jazz anymore?
Anyone with a taste in music.
Riiight, of all the music there is, only ppl who like jazz have taste...sounds like a jazz fan for sure.
Not at all, if you have taste in music, you find great music in all genres. Great music is great, no matter what broad categories it is defined by. "Jazz" covers an astoundingly vast spread of sounds and feelings. If you enjoy music for the sensation of music, Jazz is just one of the many, many places that you will find that joy.
Taste in music doesn't require finding value in every genre..the ego on these jazz fans, my god.
If you don't like or don't want to explore music, that's your prerogative. It's a hobby and a skill you can build like anything else.
You could have the one pop, country, or metal song/artist you enjoy and not branch out, it's perfectly valid, but if you like the sound of a particular song or genre there are many songs in other genres that will have the same vibe. It's just up to you to explore.
I think part of the problem here is that a "genre" is a vague, idiosyncratic definition that overlaps with every other so-called genre.
I can't possibly have a diverse musical taste or explore genres or like jazz, to you? Because I disagreed with a few comments? Yikes.
Jazz gave birth to hiphop, rap, r&b, techno, classic rock and roll and a hundred other genres. It is a clash of black, latine, and working class white history and passion.
It also evolved parallel to samba, bossa nova, blues, and other dissonance and rhythm based genres.
Taste is subjective but jazz is for sure a HUGE qualifier towards taste and from it have arisen thousands of subgenres which hundreds of millions of people enjoy.
What nonsense is this? Jazz influenced those but so did other genres, none of them "gave birth" to them.
i dont listen to jazz like constantly but anyone who actively dislikes jazz scares me
That's a very weird trigger.
Persona 5 Soundtrack.
Last Surprise is the best jrpg battle song of all time.
