Blues from Mississippi, dixieland jazz from Louisiana. Both of which evolved and formed the basis for music today. From chords based on fours, AABA and 12 bar song forms, the all important backbeat, and the creation of the drumset with the new use of the double bass made up the pulse in popular music. The list goes on. This is all true even to this day.

I like Woody Guthrie, Townes Van Zandt, Hank Williams, Sr, Merle Haggard, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Robert Earl Keen, Guy Clark Billie Holiday and Bad Brains.
I love this state, fuck what anyone says. Is my Dad a crazy, backwoods racist with barely a high school education? Absolutely. Am I an alcoholic, redneck fuck with a dumbass accent? Absolutely.

You've never been to the south and assume they are automatically dumb and close minded being the open minded liberal you are.

When I was still in high school, Indie was big. Diiv, wavves and occasionally anco.

A lot of the same stuff that's popular in other parts of the country, but if you want to get specific, white males who fly the dixie flag are probably either listening to some Jason Aldean or Florida Georgia Line, or listening to proper older country music - the type of stuff where you're pretty sure -no, you're certain- that the dude singing was drunk in Nashville and just stumbled into the studio. Think George Strait.

Older, settled-down, bible-belt "Metal is satanic and tattoos mean you're a sinner" types like my parents listen to Contemporary Gospel (Think Big Daddy Weave, Third Day, etc, I've avoided the genre for so long that I don't know any of the new "artists" creating monotonous and boring Christian "pop")

Rap fans in the south tend to lean towards Southern artists that are trendy. Lately it's been Fetty Wap. God, the amount of white college-aged rednecks who meet up in their pickup trucks, half drunk on light beer, in my local grocery store's parking lot, blasting Fetty Wap songs from their speakers and singing along loudly, is depressingly pleb.

Of course, anywhere you go, you'll find a huge variety of music tastes, and you'll find a lot of people who are into Coldplay, U2, etc, and think their taste is unique and different simply because it's not rap or country.

So yeah, that's Mississippi. I'm sure other states might be different. I know Southern meme-tier pop-rap is really popular in AL too.

Depends on what circles you're in. A lot of modern country and radio pop/hip hop, but I know some people who listen to rap and I have friends who like more obscure stuff. I usually introduce people to "weirder" music, but I have one friend who's shown me some pretty cool stuff too. It's just about who you know, man.

But generally modern pop country. Which sucks.
>>
>>65109621
You're doing those lyrics wrong.
>>65109498
Even the Deep South has an incredibly diverse musical landscape. Jazz, R&B, Hip Hop, Blues, Folk, Metal, Indie Rock, Emo, Punk, Bluegrass, and Country are all huge down here. Even if it's just with a niche market, for as decentralized and poor and underpopulated the South is there's always something new coming from any of those genres, especially from Texas, Tennessee, Georgia, and Louisiana.

I think it was the Scaruffi rating that gave this album meme status. I understand the criticism: no 9's all millennium, 1 9.5 for the history of music, then suddenly out of nowhere a 10 for such a politically divisive record? OBND is, to be fair, spectacularly flawed: it hews too close to its obvious inspirations, Trout Mask Replica, Kaoru Abe's Winter 1972, and Stravinsky's Rite of Spring to name a few; some parts, most notably the 9 minute modal jazz fugue 'If My Truck Could Talk', are ambitious to the point of onanism; the dynamics, from -25 dBA RMS for tracks on end to the sound-barrier-breaking cathartic noise tempest on 'Two Night Town: Part II (the Second Night)', make it no less easy for ears accustomed to modern production. I would argue that it is precisely these flaws that give OBND it's effervescent je-ne-sais-pais that keeps me coming back to it. From Aldean's liner notes to Burnin' It Down, the centerpiece of his divisive modal post-country album, Old Boots, New Dirt:

"Suppose that a man leaps out of a burning building and lands on a bystander in the street below. Now, make the burning building be Europe, and the luckless man underneath be the Palestinian Arabs. Is this a historical injustice? Has the man below been made a victim, with infinite cause of complaint and indefinite justification for violent retaliation? My own reply would be a provisional 'no,' but only on these conditions. The leaper must make such restitution as he can to the man who broke his fall, and must not pretend that he never even landed on him. And he must base his case on the singularity and uniqueness of the original leap. It can't, in other words, be 'leap, leap, leap' for four generations and more. The people underneath cannot be expected to tolerate leaping on this scale and of this duration, if you catch my drift. In Palestine, tread softly, for you tread on their dreams. And do not tell the Palestinians that they were never fallen upon and bruised in the first place.

I live in North Carolina. I mostly listen to punk/hardcore, indie folk, hip-hop, and electronic (ambient and techno). The south is generally a total shithole. The only good things NC has to offer are barbecue and Cheerwine.

Was at Walmart the other day and some white kids were in the parking lot blasting "Down With the Sickness" in their pickup. When I came out they were blasting Korn. Nu-metal still seems to be a thing around here. And Metalcore.
