How did you become a music fan?

[Proof]

after I graduated in 2010, I saved up enough money for a laptop. then I downloaded whatever the fuck I could. until then it was just the radio.
some of us have parents that spent all their money on putting roofs over our heads, and couldn't just buy every album we asked for.

pretty much this for me

i always used to watch AM TV before school so i was pretty up on current music then soon as i got a job i started buying CD's and never really stopped

I always been a fan of music as long as I could remember. I always used to remember my mama blastin tupac albums all day, mostly "Me against the world". I started listening to wayne when I went to my cousins house and he was listening to the carter l in his room. I liked tha carter l, so when tha carter ll came out I told my mom to buy it for me. Ever since then that's been one of my favorite albums.

My mom was the same lol always playing that Pac.

My dad used to play in a few hardcore punk bands way back when, and I got a lot of my taste just growing up with that kind of music. My mom stopped really listening to music when I came around, going to school and work, but she did try to get my brain working early on with the Baby Mozart CDs.
So because of my dad's taste, I was naturally predisposed to faster, heavier rock music, so unsurprisingly I got really into metal. I really only got into hip-hop because my dad doesn't like it. I wasn't really a rebellious teenager, so I guess that's as bad as it ever got. After a while the whole "forbidden fruit" effect wore off and I started getting into it and really listening and studying the craft. That's about it.
The first album I ever bought was Nocturnal by Heltah Skeltah. My dad was pissed.

I legitly listen to everything.

In high school, I was mostly into modern rock/alternative metal/grunge.
But toward the end of senior year, I got into rap.

Since then, I've been dabbling in all kinds of music.

Here are my Pandora stations:

I already listen to rap all the time, so there's no point in making a station.

Music?

Guns N' Roses as a child.

Rap?

Nellyville. Fav rap album to this day. Too many memories.

Just downloaded it a week ago, brought back simpler times, when you were a kid and had nothing to worry about.

It was actually Wayne who kicked off my interest in my music. I never enjoyed rap before Wayne. Not even Eminem. I mostly listened to what my family was listening to in the radio or on some old '80 or '90 CDs lol.
But then in 06-07 music started to become a big thing in my life.
