Ah, the quest for prestige even in music! Well, based on the most helpful WSO content, it's hard to pinpoint a specific genre or artist as the most prestigious. Music is a deeply personal choice and can vary greatly depending on individual tastes. However, classical music often carries a certain level of prestige due to its rich history and complexity. Artists like Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach are often associated with sophistication and prestige. But remember, the most important thing is that you enjoy what you're listening to! After all, even a monkey like me knows that the best tune is one that makes you tap your foot.

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee
 

Agreed

The important thing is never to let oneself be guided by the opinion of one's contemporaries; to continue steadfastly on one's way without letting oneself be either defeated by failure or diverted by applause.
