How do you categorize music?

I don't understand what you're asking. Are you asking how I organize it? Are you asking how I judge one song compared to others?

How do you put 2000 songs into different genres and sub genres?

I have on spotify playlist with all my favorite songs, genres range from gangsta rap to country music, just don't give a fuck fag
Fluidly, and arbitrarily.
ie, do whatever the fuck you want, when you want, how you want, why you want. Also, don't visit /mu/. Your mind is being polluted.
I don't do genre tags. honestly I just keep the metadata I downloaded it with unless it's wrong or makes it hard to find it. the quality of your relationship with music has to do with the music not its organization

I normally categorize a song based on the main genres it incorporates; many songs can easily fit into a single genre, but many more are complex pieces which could belong to multiple genres. So instead of saying "x song is from y genre" I say that "x song incorporates musical features from a,b,c,d genres".
I don't organize my songs in my music libraries by genre, though I usually make playlists focused around running (consistent, high bpm), lifting (high bpm with some high and low texture), relaxing, nostalgia, etc.
But yea, don't be a fag with having to put every song into a single genre and debating with others about where it belongs.

it should be easier to tag genres than that. usually all of an artist's music would fall into the same "genre" as the word's currently used. It basically just means "scene"

Well yea, most if not all of an artist's work will belong to the same musical genre(s), but what I'm talking about is how do you decide which genre(s) that artists belongs to? I just choose the top 3 or so genres the music sounds like and say it was influenced by all of them, instead of sticking to a single genre which some/many people might disagree with (especially /mu/sic snobs)
