The influence of music on one's personality

[swt]

can music change the majority of someone's personality?

lets say they listen to rap, but then they go and start listening to pop, is it likely that their personality will change drastically after a certain period of time?

i know music has a hard impact on mood, but what about someone's solid personality?

Yeah definitely

I listen to everything, from Tupac to Taylor Swift to Chinese / Korean / Japanese stuff

But I don't listen to it often
Like I rarely plug myself in when I commute, I just doomscroll

But some people make their playlist their entire personality

Quite wild honestly

can it change the way a person talks and expresses themselves or even make someone whos an extrovert an introvert or an introvert to become an extrovert? can music change that much about someone?

Is it the music that influences one's persona or is it their experiences/genetics that give them that inclination to a specific genre?

This is a chicken and egg situation.

Im sure it can but idk if it can be proven

People heavily invested in music also build the artist's (perceived) personality into the way they think and act

Like if you listen to songs about crimes and drugs, you might think that's cool
If you listen to feminist propaganda, you might embody it

and can this only affect people before a certain age? because at a younger age people are easier influenced.

or any age? what are your thoughts?
