Can you write about literally anything in a personal statement?
For example, can I write about how a music band/website/song/movie changed my life and why it's important to me?
Basing off from the prompts:
1. Describe the world you come from — for example, your family, community or school — and tell us how your world has shaped your dreams and aspirations.
2. Tell us about a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution or experience that is important to you. What about this quality or accomplishment makes you proud and how does it relate to the person you are?
Thanks.

Yes, absolutely. If a band/music/movie/website changed your life, that fits #1 because you're telling about the world you came from and that band/whatever shaped your world and altered you and your dreams.

Yes. So long as it answers the prompt and it's about you, then go ahead and write what you want. Piece of advice though, if for a college application or scholarship, be as truthful as you can. They want to know you and don't expect or want perfection.
