I mostly listen to varieties of British music (shoutout !britishmusic@lemmy.world)
I love R&B. I've been exploring British country music lately (surprisingly is a lot of it).
Massive fan of grime music (!grime@lemmy.world) (similarish to hip hop but with electronic beats) and its predecessor, UK garage (summery dance music vibes). UK rap in general is a big thing for me. I listen to drill music on occasion but not super often (modern gangster rap basically, although there's a lot of commercial drill nowadays). Been really into jersey club music lately - I think the beats are really cool.
I have some fondness for dancehall (!dancehall@lemmy.world) and afrobeats music as well.
Other than that, I enjoy (but don't listen to actively) baile funk, some varieties of house music, deep/original dubstep music (not the screechy dubstep most people think of), reggae, lofi-hiphop, the underground NY hip hop scene
British country music? Is this what cultural appropriation feels like?
Yeah it's weird I know but I've wrapped around to liking it lol
