I tried even that made me more low IQ.

If anyone wants to read it and tell us about the instrument/test used to measure intelligence and how musical expertise moderated the effect please do so. My guess is some smart people who listen to a lot of music are experts.

I suspect some rap and hip-hop to be brain-draining style, especially dirty lyrics with repetitive beats.

They played 'music' in the gym the other day--a guy almost screaming in the mic--supposedly rapping g to a boring beat. It was off of someone's phone.

I listen to a lot of music. I've got a lot of past trauma from being bullied that still affects me today and listening to music helps calm me down.

May I suggest some pleasing Karaoke music by the great Mr. Wu? Relax I will go fetch it for you.
