Journal Entry: Tell me about a type of music you detest and why (2 specific reasons). Is this music just rubbish, or is it merely that you don't like it? The beats are horrid? The lyrics are pointless? (provide a specific example and lyrics to support your position).

I personally like all kinds of music, however Jazz would have to be my least favorite. Jazz music contains a lot of instrumental and doesn't have lyrics, and I think "what's the point of music without lyrics?!". I also find this music quite similar and all have the same tempo, which I dislike because I'm more of a hip hop/pop person with various ups and downs in the rhythm and beat. This is the kind of music played in those classy 80s restaurants, during yoga or a morning breakfast in a rural country area. Another reason I merely dislike this music can also be my age. Many teenagers usually prefer fast beat hip hop like music, and I think Jazz is more of an option for older people. I just think that these soothing, calm rhythms really, really bore me and would drive me crazy if I sat down to finish an hour long video of Jazz music. However, there are other types I fairly dislike, but Jazz would definitely have to be my least liked.

Here's a link below of a common 3-hour long video of Jazz music:
P.S I barely got through the first five minutes!
