Gotta agree with alot of what has already been said. First, it depends on the genre. Second, I'm a blend of all three.
If I listen to rap, then I'm primarily about the lyrics.
However, I'm more of a rock guy, and the music definitely plays a much bigger role than with rap. BUT, I do listen to lyrics whenever possible, and they always help me when I'm on the fence about a song.
Lastly, yes: I do tend to enjoy some music that I might consider subpar save for the fact that one of my favorite artists/bands released it.
