I can admit with no hesitation that I have only been able to tolerate partners who share similar musical tastes compared to mine. That is not to say that their tastes have to be identical to mine. In fact, I have enjoyed learning about new bands through poking around in my past boyfriends' pause tapes, CD collections, and iTunes libraries. That being said, I knew that a past relationship would be coming to an end once a past love of mine was not as enthusiatic as I was after having seen Dave Chappelle's Block Party. The folks over a Jezebel posed the question of whether a potential mate's musical tastes are a dealbreaker in your ability to date him or her. Since most of you Bouncers are as much audiophiles as we are here, I figured this would be the perfect audience to pose this same question to. If your music library is more Sade with an occasional 2 Live Crew track in the mix but your potential partner is more representative of what plays on terrestrial urban radio, is this a dealbreaker? If so, have you ever tried to show someone the light by impressing your music onto them? Let us know in the comments.
