He could always play classical... though that might cause his followers to grow some brain cells and leave.
I've never understood why classic is "smart people music".
I like a lot of classic music, but I don't think it should be considered any more cultured or intellectual than any other music.
I know of one dude that listens to classical music while working - manual, not particularly brain intensive, but somehow he manages to be too daft for that anyway and does a shoddy job. He's a contractor in a niche field tho, and there's not a whole lot of them around, so his job security doesn't strictly hinge on quality.
It's definitely not "smart people music".
