The Virgin Mary is Our Lady of Good Counsel. She can advise a person with any problem in life. It is good to honor her daily by reciting her rosary with care!
people can choose what they do with their own money and with their own likes and dislikes and opinions, in a free society.
however, i wouldnt listen to manson or minaj; not by choice as well as many others. i stopped listening to top 40 in the middle 1980's because i thought i was getting depressed for listening to so much music. and there were two other factors, first i heard an elder give a talk about the Music industry, and 2nd if i had not turned off my music one day after school i might not have had a chance to receive the baptism of the holy spirit with an angelic like personage attending and appearing in my bedroom. the talk from the elder said there are 4 kinds of music. good people singing good music evil people singing good music, good people singing evil music and evil people singing evil music. so, at one time, the generation of senior christian believers once thought Elvis was singing rock n roll and that it was of the devil. they censored his hip gyrations on stage. but we learned that many kinds of wickedness followed the rock n roll genre and by "their" standards none of it is good. so, unless all people are wicked/evil only one category would be evil , but not all people are evil. and the only real measurement of a song and artist /entertainment is whether something worships the devil, and satan, which is idolatry. idolatry would be the wicked and evil category.
I'm so thankful that I don't like to listen to that trash. Today's "music" isn't even music! I don't know what the heck it is! And even when it sounds "interesting", it's the same music that is based on just four chords! What's changing? The beat and the rhythm. THAT DOES NOT MAKE IT NEW MUSIC!
What I like to listen to are classical and baroque music. Modern music is also very interesting (note, modern as in around 100 years ago give or take, NOT contemporary). Those were times where true geniuses of music created respectable art that actually communicates with the soul! They were so good that they were able to truly transmute emotions into music.

Since when is listening to music a sin? Anyway, if you are truly born of the holy spirit that kind of music does not appeal to you anymore.

And who decides what a person "should" listen to...
Where are these rules written down...
If you don't like that music then don't listen to it.
Not sure why you think you get to decide who listens to what.

Today though?... GARBAGE!
Christians should only listen to Byzantine hymns.
Perhaps their Christian understanding is not deep enough to reject the sinful things.
Good thing Rabbi Yeshua deemed all sins forgiven, right?
I SURE NEVER DO...I AM PICKY..I AM LISTENING TO TERRY STAFFORD and Roy Orbison!
