I'm pretty much a fan of variety, but I'll go more towards rock. Alternative, I guess, is my favorite with hard rock and punk close behind. I'm also really into hip-hop and R&B, though teen pop tends to annoy me. But I listen to mostly all genres from time to time, including even oldies. (I'm not joking here guys.)
I have a lot of favorite bands, such acts as green day, blink-182, pearl jam, creed, red hot chili peppers, foo-fighters. My currents faves are system of a down, linkin park, and white stripes.
As far as R&B goes, I think eminem is amazing (great lyrics, excellent recordings). I like a lot of the old-school stuff like 2pac, Dr, dre, Master P. It took me a while, but I'm really starting to feel Nelly also...catchy tunes and the guy isn't afraid to be different. I'm also starting to get into club music especially stuff from the UK. I thought Artful Dodger had some pretty cool tracks...

My favorite genre is R&B. I mainly like Urban AC and gospel as far as the current music goes, but I especially love 80's R&B.
I'll listen to other genres too. I like some dance. Rap is okay, mainly groups like The Roots and other alternative rap.
My favorite artists are Mariah Carey [#1 by far], Janet Jackson, and Mary J. Blige. Those are like my big three. I like a lot of other artists too, but I always support those artists in every way I can.

Favorite Genres: Dance (Trance, Eurotrance, Breakbeat, Freestyle, and some House), Rock (what's played on "Alternative" radio), 90's Hip Hop (back when the scene wasn't completely commercialized)
Favorite Artists: I don't really have one (I try to avoid getting caught up in liking a song just because it's by a certain artist). Some of the artists that I believe put out the best, most consistently good music are: Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, & Incubus

Favorite genres: R&B (real R&B, not rap or hip-hop); rock (except punk rock); latin rhythm; classical; folk; dance; pop; euro; arabian... most important musical elements: melody, rhythm, feeling (soul), strong instrumental support, harmonies, creativity, hooks, choral background
Languages: any, just as long the music sounds good, but I mostly hear English, of course.
Favorite artists: no artist recently has put out a string of more than 2 outstanding albums in a row, but Blue and Dido have a good start. Live's Throwing Copper is my favorite album of the '90's, and Alice & Chains had several of my favorite songs. Go back to the '80's and it's Journey, Foreigner, Michael Jackson and Sade. For the '70's, it was the Alan Parsons Project, Commodores, Stevie Wonder, and Stylistics. And the '60's had lots of great artists led by the Moody Blues, Turtles, Gary Puckett & the Union Gap, Grassroots, and I love Motown. I must mention the Beatles and Beach Boys as well.

Favourite Genre
Euro-Pop, AC, parts of Country, Dance, and some hip hop and R&B
Favourite Artist
Its always between Kylie Minogue and Mariah Carey. Sometimes one of 'em annoy me, sometimes one of 'em don't. It changes. Right now; Kylie Minogue is my favourite artist. I'm generally entertained by Britney Spears, Christina, Madonna, Celine, and all the fluffy pop acts.
