"tell us a story about the the very first time you heard an artist"
could be an artist who has meant a lot to you, whose music changed your life, whose music you fell in love to or grew up to or made a baby to or provided the soundtrack to an important part of your life.
Could be an artist that remains unpopular.
Or, you could tell us a story about the first time you heard an artist you hate. Humor is good.
