If Dragon Ball characters became music artists, what genres would they do?

Post by DBZAOTA482 » Sun Feb 18, 2018 4:55 pm

What would be most fitting towards their character? I'll start with some examples:

Goku: Nursery Rhymes

Gohan: Happy rap

Vegeta: Heavy metal

Piccolo: Harmonic

Yamcha: Rock

Master Roshi: Scat

Bulma: Pop

Chi-Chi: R&B/soul

Ox-King: Country

Caulifla: Gangsta/Hardcore rap

Ribrianne & gang: Pop

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

        Fixed it for you.

        I reckon Gohan would be a classic rock guy, very vanilla tastes.

        EDIT: Ooh, and while we're on the subject, Kale would totally be a Gerard Way fan.

        Gohan would totally do classical music.

        Vegeta would do metal.

        Goku cares so little about anything other than fighting that I can't imagine him doing any music at all. So yeah, nursery rhymes is probably the most advanced thing he could possibly muster.

        I could totally see Trunks and Mai playing some indie music like Tame Impala.

        You can't tell me that ChiChi wouldn't go for classic.

        Broly would definitely play that 90s hard metal.

        Goku's probably got some standard tastes, all about pushing forward, and motivating oneself. Inspirational rock stuff. Pushing his limits, rising up, and rocking that challenge. Videl would likely be along the same line.

        Vegeta's definitely more about that Megadeth, with his bitter, hateful grudge and seething anger, often eerily close to a deadly infatuation with Kakarot.

        Gohan was thrown into battle when he was too young. I'm sure he's got a chip on his shoulder about that. Then again, he's also a scholar, so his inevitable interest in history, myth, and literature would no doubt bleed into his music.

        Future Trunks, that poor hopeful bastard, would probably wail on about making it through the night.

        Goten and Trunks are kids, so they're probably into stuff that toes the line between corny, cringe-inducing, and edgy, super upset that their parents just don't understand.

        Yamcha is hopeless romantic, so he'd probably glam it up and sing about nothing but love, and his complete and utter inability to find it.

        Hit and Tao Pai Pai strike me as the kinds of dudes to gloat about their job.

        The Saiyans in general, space barbarians that they are, seem like they'd be all over Melodic Viking Folk Power Death Metal.

        Piccolo Daimao really strikes me as an Avant-garde Black Metal kinda guy.

        #17's super into nature, so he strikes me as someone who would be more about Folk Metal, or maybe some nice and peaceful orchestral stuff, like Jeremy Soule.

        Zamasu's got one hell of a superiority complex, and that would certainly be the focal point of every song he makes. Freeza probably as well.
