Do you think your music taste reflects who you are or want to be?

How come music taste changes so often, Do you think it reflects the person you are or who you want to be?

I listen to folk. I love Simon and Garfunkel, Bob Dylan and all that but lately I've been listening to a lot of rap. Getting really into Tyler the creator, Kanye, Kendrick Lamar, A$AP rocky, Ice cube, WU-TANG.

    Honestly, a lot of people are surprised when they find out I listen to rap lol. I don't try to act black at all or even try to have a black accent. So I don't think what I listen to reflects what I want to be. I listen to hip hop because I appreciate the culture, and because many of the artists express themselves in some of the most creative ways I've ever seen. Not taking that away from any other genre considering I love R&B, Rock, and Disco as well. But something about Rap makes me appreciate it more.

    No. I don't see how rock music, EDM, and some pop reflects me at all. Does that selection of music create an image of someone who likes to box, wants to get into politics and fantasizes about converting the USA in a fascist nation, and who hopes to one day own a Pontiac Tojan?
