There's No Wrong Way To Listen To Music

It is interesting to see how many people are walking around with their headphones in or bumpin music in their cars as they drive by.  Just in the last couple days I made an effort to pay attention to how many people listen to music in my house.  I caught plenty of people going throughout their day not only listening to music but creating their own music as well.  It is heart warming to see the joy they have for it and the happiness it brings them Music can unite people from all places in the world, it is diverse, it is love.

Beats...

Music has evolved over the years and so have the devices used to listen to it.  We have gone through records, tape players, CD players, mp3s, and now ipods. Headphones have evolved over the years as well.  We’ve gone through the old school plastic airplane lookin’ headphones to the little nubs that fall out of your ears, and now…beats. That’s right; they aren’t referred to as headphones, but just beats.  Dr. Dre is more than a record producer, rapper, and record executive; he has changed the way people listen to music.

"People aren't hearing all the music.

Artists and producers work hard in the studio perfecting their sound. But people can't really hear it with normal headphones. Most headphones can't handle the bass, the detail, the dynamics. Bottom line, the music doesn't move you.

With Beats, people are going to hear what the artists hear, and listen to the music the way they should: the way I do."

Nobody can put it better than Dr. Dre himself.  But what he says is true, if you see someone walking around wearing beats you know they’re serious about music.  By wearing beats you’re making a statement.  Music is something to you.

I personally own a pair of beats and they are the color purple for the obvious reason; our school is purple.  It’s funny because whenever we travel for basketball I wear them and people are always asking me if they were given to me by our school.  But I got purple because they represent me and my school.  I think that by Dre making beats all different colors it gives people the opportunity to express themselves even more.  Like me, everybody has their own story.
