She likes Public Enemy. I may need to sprinkle that in with the Run DMC. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 13, 10:38 11
- Yeah, you need NWA or PE if we're talking sub-genres -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 13, 10:43 3
  - "Straight Outta Compton" is such an amusing record now. Like, still awesome, but... - TFox Aug 13, 10:45 2
    - When the white-est kids in America, like me, started listening to it...you knew it was all over. - Mel Profit Aug 13, 10:47 1
      - In junior high, I thought "The Chronic" was one of the more fascinatingly scary things I'd ever heard. - TFox Aug 13, 10:49
- When I was a teen, the way I got into older bands was reading interviews with my favorite bands, where they talked about their faves. - TFox Aug 13, 10:42 6
  - Yeah, I would like to be able to "tie" them together in a timeline. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 13, 10:46 5
    - Who does she like now? Like, top 5? That's the easiest way to find a few that will hook her ears. -- nm - TFox Aug 13, 10:47 4
      - Hmm. Good question. I'll have to find out. - JaxSean Aug 13, 10:50 3
        
        TMBG is a hard one to pull influences for. :) -- nm - TFox Aug 13, 10:54 2
        
        She's pretty scattershot. She likes a lot of Japanese bands now, too. (She watches a lot of anime since she's drawing a lot.) -- nm - JaxSean Aug 13, 11:01
        
        Frank Zappa -- nm - con_carne Aug 13, 10:55
I've been thinking about you-oooo. -- nm - Subversive Aug 13, 10:37
