I think that any music worth anything has emotional content put into by it's creation and performance that will cause other people to associate and empathize with the narrative embodied in the piece for their own reasons and associations.
No one particular genre of music has this effect because it is up to the individual how they will be affected by the emotional content of the piece.
If classical music doesn't do anything for you, that's fine. I just mentioned it because I find Beethoven's Ode to Joy to be one of the purest and most intense expressions of emotion ever expressed through music. I'm not saying that you have to see it that way, it just has that affect on me so I recommend it from that standpoint. de vagorum ordine dico vobis iura
fatue fatue
quid prodest tibi laborare
