Why is it that so many nerdy white guys are into rap music like Death Grips and the Wu-Tang Clan, while all the chill alpha bros are listening to stuff like Pavement and Superchunk?

where the fuck do you live that this is true

In his head.

>tfw I like all of these

Because people listen to music because they enjoy it not because it fits there personality.

>>61230714
you can not possibly say that Pavement and superchunk are better than DG and Wu Tang.

its funny in art school. all the intelligent, serious minded, cool guys listen to art music. the art school "bros" slightly different than regular bros but bros none the less--- white guys who skateboard around, constantly smoke cigeretts, say "dude" constantly, and dont actually make art... listen to indie rock.

>>61230829
what do u mean by art music
>>
>>61230750
dg 5/10
wu tang 5/10
pavement 3/10
superchunk 3/10

its all garbage music listen to art msuci
>>
>>61230714
A lot of people listen to Death Grips to be "le edgy".
They're really not all that good. Neither is Wu-Tang Clan, Pavement, and Superchunk.

I would say it's due to wanting an image, and being "that guy".

>>61230869
art music is for 17-19 year olds who are still trying to prioritize ambition over just being a solid, chill bro. while ur "making art" we're getting drunk with the cute chicks from your classes and singing along to archers of loaf tracks

>Normie/Chad core
Whatever is on their local rap radio station

>Smart, sexually active, cool guys who aren't normies but still get pussy core
Ween, Pavement, Dinosaur Jr, etc

>Low test, effeminate, pseudo "hipster" who expresses self like a woman and probably has a Tumblr
Death Grips, Run the Jewels + mainstream meme rap (Kanye, Drake, Future, Young Thug + select entry-level "dude see my taste is diverse LOL" bands like Swans, Andrew Jackson Jihad, etc.

Actively follow the VMAs & Grammys and live tweet about

Video game soundtracks, black/death metal, etc.

Pavement literally have the theme song to one of ESPN's most popular daily weekday shows (Pardon the Interruption)

What's Death Grips claim to fame? Being a fucking meme on anime message board?

>>61230714
white people realized black and bbc culture is more dominant and co-opted it so they seem cool and like not pasty skinny white nerds

liberal white guilt

>>61231862
I don't think that's the case, but I was expecting someone to say it. i think it's the contrary: whites like to listen to black music because they see in blacks strenght they lack, and listening to tough gangsters rapping about killing people and doing cute gangster stuff makes them feel almost like they are gangster themselves.

It's not that weird to listen to Guided by Voices, Pavement, and Wu-Tang. That's all some pretty well-regarded popular shit. It's not like they're opposite ends of some spectrum.
>>
>>61232008

i only listen to hip-hop.

Guided by Voices really has nothing in common with Wu-Tang Clan at all

it's not that indie rock fans are alphas, it's just that literally everyone's more alpha than white hip hop fans

normie/chad core is missing some essentials: sublime, red hot chili peppers, and slightly stoopid. there is no bro who does not like all three of those bands.
