this may sound weird but ever since ive been working and doing other stuff, i havent really caught up on music.
if any one have any good recommendation on any artist let me know!!!

i prefer rock r&b and a little rap. i need to feel pimp in my car again.

Sheesus pleasus, man! You should listen to some metal, dawg.
Anyways, try out the following rock bands (I'll throw some well-known one's in just in case); Clutch, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Velvet Revolver, Breaking Benjamin, Queens of the Stone Age, Eagles of Death Metal (the name throws ya off, it's really just rock). That should get ya started.
I recommend you try out some metal, it's good for the soul. Ya know, just in case you find yourself loving it. Check out Children of Bodom and Devildriver. Also, Nightwish and Leaves' Eyes are good for female vocals.

Hmm, listen to some hard/classic rock I guess?
Or maybe some Post-hardcore.

Saosin
Senses Fail
Chiodos
Paramore
Queen
Led Zep
etc etc etc.

Led Zeppelin
Guns N' Roses
Zebra
Triumph

Def Leppard
Aerosmith
ACDC
Velvet Revolver
Van Halen
Dire Straits

Try classic rock:

(In no particular order)

Yes
Electric Light Orchestra
Black Sabbath

only rap song i listen to is Hip Hop is dead. if thats even rap. whatever. the Disturbed, AFI, Saosin, Thrice

Wow... you went from sucktastic to amazingly awesome down to crap again. But yes, Queen is amazing. Don't just listen to the mainstream singles, though, or you'll miss out on most of their best songs.

Oasis

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Asian Kung-Fu Generation
The Seatbelts
Phantom Planet (Old)
Lenny Kravitz
Kagrra
Pierrot
Luna Sea

Kamelot-great power/speed metal band : The Black Halo is an incredible album.

Gentle Giant-I don't know how to describe them, they just are, them! Plain awesome.

Linkin Park (their new albulm is good)
Metallica
Three Days Grace

LinkNo1: You need to get your music correct and straight before you should say anything silly like that Secondly, no matter how much you think Oasis is overrated (though I have yet to even meet a real fan, being that people only know Champagne Super Nova and Wonderwall) they're still far better than that Paramore, Panic, Fallout Boy crap you're suggesting.

Btw: Bullet, Trivium and NuTallica aren't metal. Silly rabbit.

Let me see, here are some of my favs:

Tenacious D,
System of a Down,
Three Days Grace,
Arctic Monkeys, I just discovered them but I like 'em,
The White Stripes, I love 'Icky Thump'

i have no clue what some of these Band Genres are but there Good and I like them so here there

Alexisonfire
Dance Gavin Dance
Sky Eats Airplane
Emarosa

Devil Wears Prada (yeah i know it was a Movie)

I dunno, my roommate and I can still get over exaggeratingly down to Bohemian Rhapsody. Plus the chick from Paramore is a total bitch. At least she was last time I met her(I go to lots of music festivals). Aaaand, Nirvana was great not because of a suicide--which was set up, by the way(but that's a whole other song and dance)--but because of what the songs actually meant. The songs themselves weren't really meant to be technical at all. Controversy, however, does push popularity. I admit that.

Anywho...

I always recommend old-skool hip hop if you like rap. Try west cost stuff if you want that chill feeling. Stuff like:
NWA(and the solo careers of Eazy-E, Dr. Dre and Ice Cube)
Compton's Most Wanted
Cypress Hill
and stuff like that.

With Rock I can get down to pretty much anything. So, if you're well-rounded like me you should try:
AFI(their older stuff)
The Misfits
Senses Fail
Streetlight Manifesto
Coheed and Cambria
I could go on.

I can't say that much modern music(and I mean this year) is worth looking at. But folk seems to be doing pretty well.

New hip hop

Mack 10 Feat. Glasses Malone & Red Cafe - Big Baller
Big Kuntry King - Player's Lifestyle (Feat. T.I. And Slim Thug) (Prod. By Khao)
T.I - No matter what
Young Buck ft. Hussein Fatal - Get down


And old, but an true pimp song

Pimp C - Knocking doors down

Need more?
ask

Lamb of God - Just friggen brutal...
Trivium - New stuff is awesome
The Misfits - Can't go wrong with a band thats been around for 30 years and still going strong!
Dimmu Borgir - Amazing symphonic/extreme metal
Buckethead - If you're into any guitar at all...You know who he is...
Children of Bodom - Again, a great metal band

That's a good list right there for any music lover who wants to broaden their music selection.

Try the Disturbed,link below to the title track of the new album.
