Everyone’s got a genre they love to hate — but what if you’ve been wrong this whole time?

This week, we’re defending the underdogs. Disco, Outlaw Country, ‘80s Rap, and yes, even Metallica all walk into the courtroom, and we’re playing defense attorney. We’ll dig up the deep cuts you forgot existed, the classics you never gave a real chance, and the songs that just might make you a convert.

Plus — we uncover the real-life singer whose haunting voice and wild persona became the blueprint for Heath Ledger’s unforgettable Joker. Come in a hater. Leave a fan. Maybe.
