Drugs = Thugs?

(Gigwise) A new study has revealed that people who listen to DJ-based dance music are more likely to take drugs than anyone else. 2,500 people were interviewed for the study carried out by the University of Leicester, which assessed various aspects of their lifestyle in relation to their musical tastes.

Hip-hop and dance music fans are more likely to have had more sexual partners over the last five years, and they also topped the drug-tasters list. Dr Aiden North told the BBC: "It comes out in the study that, in these types of music (hip-hop and dance), fans score worse in various behaviours, such as criminality, sexual promiscuity and drug use. It was shown that this had nothing to do with their ethnic backgrounds. The behaviour was linked purely to musical taste in its own right." [see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
