23 Signs You Might Have Terrible Taste In Music
I have a confession. I’m ashamed to admit it, but I’m an addict. I’m addicted to terrible music. We all want to think we are music snobs who only listen to great music. We were into Childish Gambino before it was cool. We think Lil’ Wayne is the worst person in the world. What happens though when you start to suspect that you might not be the music connoisseur that you thought. Look for these warning signs:
1. Purchased every one of Lil’ Bow Wow’s CDs.
2. The most played song in your iTunes library is Tie Me Down by New Boyz and Ray J.
3. You believe that Pretty Ricky is your generation’s Beatles.
4. You have never heard a Beatles song.
5. JaRule’s comeback is something that you google at least once a month.
6. You find any of Soulja Boy songs enjoyable in any context even a sarcastic one.
7. You own Shaquille O’Neal’s greatest hits.
8. You think that Shaq had any hits.
9. Shaq isn’t the only former LA Laker in your iTunes.
10. At parties or social gatherings you put your iPod on shuffle and you’re in constant fear of what song could come on next.

15. Your favorite song is in all Spanish and you don’t speak or understand Spanish.
16. You haven’t heard it in years but you could perfectly recite Gigolo by the great Nick Cannon.

18. You’re convinced that JC Chasez was the most talented member of NSYNC.
19. As much as you try you just don’t get the hype about Kendrick Lamar or Kid Cudi.
20. You miss Loon. And Murphy Lee. And Chingy. And Mike Jones. And Juvenile.
21. When you need to get pumped up all you have to do is throw on some 2 Chainz.
