real s*** if u feel like music is controlling ur inner demons or possessing u or keeping u from hearing the "humming of the sun" u should probably seek help

.

My position now is like. Bro the music has to lift me up. It's like, if I listen to this one track like every day, is it going to have a negative impact on me? What I'm finding is mostly instrumental music is either neutral or positive.

Pray for these little white kids listening to carti because the messaging is not held back at all

Amen bruh, next thread

Alright let's stay your doctor gave you some pills and said to you before it : you know they healed some people but they also killed others. Would you take them still ?

People who can focus with music probably don't need it to still be focused

And I'm not saying that it's a dangerous thing per se I'm just saying that we reached the stage where it's overflooding our lives. Like s*** you can't even enter a supermarket or whatever without some music flooding your brain. There's gotta be a reason for it don't you think ? If music was this 100% harmless thing it wouldn't be used as a mean to boost consumption ?

Once again I'm DEFINITELY not saying that music is evil I'm just saying that people going at OP for saying he took a 2 WEEKS break shows you how insane of a grip it has on us

ok fine if carti doesnt work for u consider that OP believes the world would be better off without 808s and Heartbreak

Maybe it would be. That's a LOT of depressing music

are u stupid

nobody is going at OP for taking a 2 week break

we r going at OP for him saying that music is a bad thing

Music is everywhere bc it makes ppl happy and feel good

big shocker when ppl feel good they are more likely to buy s***. Thats why u hear it everywhere. Not bc there's some secret downside "they" are hiding from you.

Grow up.

ok OP believes the world would be better if Prince's music didn't exist.

OP believes the world would be better off if Pac never touched a microphone.

OP believes that Billie Jean is terrible

Someone said : "u don't love music if you're able to do this" f*** is you even talking about

And you're basically saying that music is a way to make you do more things that you wanted to HOW IS THAT A GOOD THING ?

this is your brain on trash music

OP wants to live in a world without September by Earth Wind and Fire

Come on man you're clearly going through something. You're resisting this idea wayyyyy too much

We can't take nothing to our graves period

I mean they were right no?

OP hates music

OP is staunchly anti-Nujabes

of f***ing course im resisting the idea that music is evil the f***?

I love music. Don't u love music?

man come on seriously just think for two seconds. Do you genuinely believe life would be better without J Dilla's music?

if you do more things that you want to do isn't that a good thing?

I'm assuming u meant to say more things than you wanted to which,..

no music doesnt make u do more things than u want to tf? As far as consumption goes, being happier makes u buy more stuff. Sure music is one way to make people happy. So are free samples. Are u gonna tell me that free samples are a bad thing now?

Like it doesn't even matter what OP is or isn't, what he wants to push through his post or not. The thing is taking a break from music or cutting the time you listen to it on a daily basis is sometimes a good thing.

One thing that baffled me most is the fact that we basically invented a lane of music that recreates the outside. You see how deep that s*** is ? Like can't y'all go OUTSIDE how come y'all need that s*** wired to your ears when you could enjoy the whole thing by yourself

Life is depressing, a lot of art is meant to capture and express the experience of life. The world is not a worse/sadder place because of art that expresses negative emotions

Life would continue on man it's neutral

The question is how aware are you of the influence your music taste is having on you.

what are you even talking abt

also sure maybe you personally felt good taking a break from music. I'm happy for you. But no there is nothing inherently good about listening to less music. Same way there's nothing inherently bad about listening to more music.

It is a mean to make you more relaxed and more prone to consumption.

Like hell if you wanted to buy one pizza you'll end up buying two of them just for the sake of it that's what music does to you

"I just heard some real bad neeews"

Hearing that

Day in day out

Hmm

Sorry, but you're just a p**** if this really has any noticeable effect on you Same vibes as "Playing GTA makes kids more violent", you sound like a middle aged to senior citizen Republican woman right now

Sorry man can't continue this conversation. You aren't aware of certain things

music produces emotional responses. Everyone knows this. Pointing it out isn't as deep as you think. I promise.

music is not neutral. music is a good thing. In fact its an absolutely beautiful and amazing thing.

why are you so willing to entertain bullshit anti-music talking points? You realize this is the exact same s*** pushed by f***ing ISIS right?
