For whatever reason I've dated a lot of guys who make music. Rappers. Well the reason being I am attracted to creative people. But when it comes to listening to their music I get a little weird. Music is a very personal thing for an artist. It's like a lover or mistress. So I start to wonder, what would happen if I don't like his music? Clearly I will offend him. And what if it's really bad and I lose some respect for him? There was a guy I knew who thought he was a pretty good singer. Once I heard him sing, I kind of lost all interest in him..
It's weird that I never really expect to love the music. That may tie in to the fact that most of us just naturally expect to be disappointed. But I fear it could be that I just don't want to look like a groupie if I happen to really dig his music. Stupid I know. And I definitely have dug the music before, I've met some really talented guys. So yes, I know I sound a little cuckoo but this is my time to address this little problem I have. I think it's about time I get over this, it's a tad bit immature. And as I look to further my music career I definitely want someone to be honest with me and be excited about listening to my music if I ask them to give me an opinion. Not that my reasons for wanting to get over this are purely selfish but it's a start.
