This might just be a good researchable topic amongst psychologists! |

Contents/depth of the song/artist might be a stronger consideration against other things. I mean, compare ppl who like Mode-9 to ppl who like Olamide. Although there no data from any research whatsoever but I'm tempted to believe Mode-9 fans might record higher IQs. Maybe, obviously, depth attracts depth. 3 Likes |

BabaAlabi: A good friend of mine loves listening to songs by Terry G while another is into rock. Guess which one is writing JAMB for the 4th time? It might correlate, but definitely is not causal or proof of level of intelligence. |

It says nothing and if anything the study is flawed as its based on cultural background and not actual IQ. Those that listen to Rap/hip hop are more affiliated with those that they see as being similar to (ie the rap stars) and who talk about their live experiences. Chances are that they are from less privileged environments, but having said that their scope of other music may be limited. Those in affluent environments who ALSO listen to rap/hip hop are opened to other forms as well. Thats the only difference. If the type of music defined yr IQ why would Tupac Shakurs and JZ's music be studied in Ivy leagues schools in the US and have professors quoting that is of a level that many intelligent individuals may not comprehend. Even the US president listens to JZ. |

Sure;I think your taste of music "might" have something to do with your I.Q. Sometimes when I hear people who are fans of certain artistes talk,I just end up shaking my head at the things that comes out from their mouths. As a person,I focus more on the lyrics of a song,than the beats. Terry G is an example of an artiste I can't listen to. |

Even the US president listens to JZ. Exactly! The cultural background and social affiliations would be parameters that should have influenced the study. But you also have to face the facts that Hip Hop tracks have "levels". A typical Tupac track should never be compared to say; Nicky or Eminem (who just sings with so much anger and dumb stuff simply to rhyme)! 1 Like |

Ironically, wack lyrical rappers like Lil Wayne and 2 Chains were straight A's students in High school. But i think, naturally brilliant people are choosy beings when it comes to music, not every popular junk of music pass through their ear drums. Go figure! 6 Likes |

I think it should be the more commercial your taste in music is, the more dumb you are. I'm not a rap-head, I'm not even interested in it, but I know the difference between Lil Wayne and Canibus. Don't let the commercial artistes steal and defame the art that rap is. It's not a walk in a park talking about world problems and rhyming as well. That said, I listen to all kinds of music and it depends on my mood during those months. There are times I have long spells for rock, african music from the likes of Salif Keita or take a particular interest in the artiste. I also have Reggae spells, Soul and Jazz, Gospel, down right to our own dear Psquare kind of music. 3 Likes |

classical music can make you intelligent and productive. Learning to play classical musical instruments (notes and tones) helps to boost brain power. FACT. Someone mustn't state it in another website for you to agree with me. 2 Likes |

Very Very good point. It would suprise you to know that many of these so called dumb rapper where actually str8 A students ( ie Biggie, JZ, PAC was elected by his fellow students as being one they expected to excel later in life, Big Sean, I could go on and on......) Oildichotomy^: |

maybe it isnt the music but one's intellectual 'status' that decides the kind of music they listen to. The music just makes one duller or sharper... |
