I was thinking about it, after my dad was shaking his head about rap music when I was showing him who Griselda were before I went to their concert a few weeks ago😂, and he had said “I don’t know how you listen to this. Music is supposed to be uplifting!” First off, pops…FALSE. Music is art, and art doesn’t “have to be” anything. Some songs are happy, some are sad, some are intense, some are mellow…there’s room for all of it, it’s just about what matches our various vibes. And as I thought on it, I think my favorite quality in a song is that it’s “menacing” lmao. In some senses, or maybe in some moods, I want my music to say to others “miiiiiight not want to fuck with this guy”, lmao. That’s not to say I live like gangsta rappers do, or claim to, but I do like to carry an air of “this is what I’m doing, it shouldn’t be a problem for anyone else, and anyone else who DOES have a problem with it, it might be best to keep that to yourself lest I slap the shit outta you.”😂 Nothing super in-your-face, just a gentle suggestion that I might be an aggressive person who you might just want to quietly let go about his business. Try that shit on the guy listening to throwback John Denver lmfao.
So, it’s mostly hip-hop that gives this desired effect, but can venture into some hard rock like Rage Against The Machine, Pantera, Deftones, some of the less mainstream Korn songs (excluding Blind, that’s a fuckin’ BANGER), etc. For the record, though, I also like pop punk from the 00s, so it’s also entirely possible you might see me driving around and think “what a pussy”😂😂😂
Anyway, the hip hop that I think really gets me going in that way is either a low, threatening tone or something with heavy pomp. Obviously the lyrics will play a role too, but there are certain songs that just have a sound, or maybe just a great hook, and it just gets you HYPE. I think of some of the old pre-game music I would play when I was still playing football, I was the “music guy” in the locker room. Back then, I was heavy into Dipset, little Wayne (can’t wait to see if GAG still makes me look like a dork and automatically changes l-i-l to “little”🙄🤦♂️) was huge, Rick Ross, Young Jeezy. Those guys all had stuff like that.

This may sound weird coming from a girl but the music that makes me feel godlike is hard rock / heavy metal music. My favourite bands are:
Disturbed, Nickelback, Skillet, Linkin Park, Five Finger Death Punch, Saliva, Drowning Pool, Shindown, Three Doors Down, 3 Days Grace, Green Day, Avenged Sevenfold, Breaking Benjamin, Thousand Foot Krutch
But I also have a guilty pleasure from Ariana Grande and Britney Spears.
There are too many but here is one

The song you posted was pretty solid. 😎
For me I’d say stuff by AK, Michael FK, Koda, M4SONIC, Blackmill, Veorra etc
Thankfully, NOTHING fuels a God complex in me!! That would be dangerous. There's too much music that moves me in too many different ways, but this one always jacks me up:

Right now. I'm into club music. It reminds me of my teenhood/late childhood days from the 90's to early 2000's.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/1KrBAVN7FpwI wouldn't say it makes me feel God-like, that's too arrogant to say lol. It just makes me feel good because it reminded me of more innocent, fun days of the time.
When I'm feeling down this little ditty right here brings back the alpha in me:

This song helped me through a really rough time. It is about tenacity and resilience.

This lady Gaga song G. U. Y. it's literally about her pegging someone while being a bad bitch slayqueen
I only use binaural beats, don't have a specific track.
One thing i know is that we adapt to music we listen to often enough. Sometimes the adaptation makes it more potent than the first time you heard it, sometimes it stops working on you.
I specifically listen to music that makes me feel powerless
Also Sprach Zarathustra, Richard Strauss.

This is a good example of it. Because I am fiercely independent, have a take no BS attitude and have never ran from a fight.

Electroswing is probably not a popular choice but i absolutely love it. Especially if it has a sinister vibe. I've never seen myself as a hero and as a person mostly seen as weird by the whole of society the villainous music is always amazing for me.
The brown noise.🤣
