--Now of course these aren't the only artists I have on there (434 artists total); I purposely only put artists who've exceeded the 'one-hit-wonder' barrier in my eyes. Some you may have never heard of and that's because your local radio stations won't play it. I, personally, don't listen to the radio, because i dont feel like it plays real music; maybe 3 months after a song was released will it play on the radio (which by then it'll be played out) so i don't even waste my time with that junk.
--Notice the variety in the artists though; and this isn't even including the collaborations. But i basically bump what i'm in the mood for. i may feel like rockin out to Miley Cyrus one day or coolin' off to Al Green.
--If you learn anything from this entry, explore your options and give all types of music a chance. Don't listen to just rap cuz you think it's 'cool'. if you like country music, u better knock that shit to the max! lol .. embrace your qualities and increase ur quantity of genres of music.
P.S. Holla at me if you want suggestions for a bomb song from any of the artists i've listed or a tight song in general. my ipod is updated on a weekly basis (i download from 50-100 songs a week)
