I wouldn't say balanced. I'd say you're currently at the other end of the extreme.

I remember when I was 15 I thought that music wasn't "real music" unless it was played on guitar/bass/drums, and that other music, specifically rap/hip-hop was garbage. Then around 18 I got into "urban" music, but that "pop" music was absolute trash. In my 20s I got to a point where I was like "Heh. Like whatever you like. It all (mostly) has some merit".

Just mellow a bit, man.
