Is it normal for Americans or African Americans to like J-Rock/J-pop (Japanese music). I listen to JRock and mostly V-kei. Bands like Versailles, Dir En Grey, L'Arc~En~Ciel, AnCafe, etc.
A lot of people assume that if i like JRock that i must be a fan of Anime, which is not true. I don't dislike it or anything, im just not a fan. Is that normal?
i'm indian & i luv jrock. of course it's normal. i'm even weirder than u. & i've only watched a few animes in the past.
Lmao yes..I am puerto rican and I love Korean pop Big bang, the wonder girls..etc I am obsessed with taeyangs sexy ass..hey diversity is a beautiful thing
Of course, a variety of people love varieties of music. Just because you are African American does not mean that you can't love a certain type of music without adoring anime also.
It does not matter if your listening to music you do not understand as long as it sounds cool its all good. I like j-pop and Manga I'm black and people assume i wish i was Japanese or that I'm "not black" or that i like everything Japanese. the simple fact is people love to stereotype and just because you like one thing doesn't mean you like another, you're normal!
Why would it not be normal? We don't consider speaking other languages weird, so why do the same with music?
I love J-Rock, Asaki, Maximum the Hormone, Nightmare, they kick butt.
And you know what? I'm Irish, and I don't have a clue what they're saying, but I don't care.
Keep Rockin!
I like how you said is it normal for Americans and African Americans. LoL. That's funny. I thought African Americans were classified as Americans. Oh well, silly me what do I know. I actually like Malice Mizer, Dir En Grey, Psycho Le Cemu and others. I am African American that happens to be American. Hmmm...music isn't race specific. I know white people that listen to hip hop. I know asians that listen to country. I know black people that listen to death metal. This blackie included.
why wouldn't it be normal? People listen to music that are in other languages all of the time. Whatever floats ur boat!
It's normal to like any kind of music. I listen to some music in Spanish, and some Indonesian music that my friend from Indonesia showed me. I've looked up the lyrics and used Google translate, so I know what they're saying..haha.
O course it's normal I actually listen only to J-Rock and K-pop because I don't like American and European music. But personaly I love anime but that's not reason why I lvoe J-Rock.
L'Arc~en~Ciel is not a VK band. But ahem ehm yes it is NORMAL but it is probably not AVERAGE, if you understand what i mean. Everyone has their preferences in music.
yea its normal =/ i mean i'm a guy from belgium where no1 that i know ever heard of the word J-rock or J-Pop but yes i like it lol, u should listen to UVERworld...they are just epic ^^
My brother, who is half black, LOVES Japanese music, but doesn't like anime, so yeah I think it's pretty normal.
well it's a lot better than rap and hip hop, but for real good music you should listen to emo music
damn racist, and i have tried listening to J-rock but i prefer music that English, its hard hearing it not knowing what there saying
It's normal, but J-music in general is rampantly gay so maybe don't listen to JUST that.
