Gloria hit it on the spot. Some of us don't realize that some of our "responses" to certain types of music are "culturally" learned. Once again, read Romans 14.
This is not neccessarily true. For myself, it was culturally acceptable to love hip hop. I grew up with its influences all around me and I did very much enjoy it, however as I matured as a Believer, God changed my preference for music. Now I don't care for hip hop, even though most people want to assume I do. My brothers and I grew up in the exact same culture and they love hip-hop music and lifestyle and are totally enmeshed in it. I choose not to be. Culturally speaking, hundred year old hymns set to a single piano make no sense for me, but God has turned my heart to where now they are my preference.
I didn't say anything was necessarily true.
