Every now and then i do that, but sometimes it kind of disturbs if i am writing.
Then don't listen when writing.
I did that many times. Whenever I was writing, I'd turn off the music if it's bothering my work. But sometimes, writing while listening to musics can pump some motivation in me and give me inspirations, scenes to write, based on the song's mood.
I tend to listen to Dead Man Walking whenever I write an action chapter. And when it's about a character having anxiety, then I'd play a Cry of Fear OST named Anxiety. Good melodies for angst people.
When I'm writing comedy, I'd go around and watch videos about people getting humiliated and/or absurd moments where funny things happen.
And I took a different approach when I'm describing a horror scene, either psychological or terror, by watching horror games playthroughs like Minecraft horror mods or ARGs.
Lately, I've been following this guy named Rod in his Minecraft horror mods endeavour. His videos are one rabbit hole of psychological horror inspirations because he covers mods like The Broken Script and (a semi-arg scripted horro named) Abandoned.
If it's a fanfic that I'm writing, then for character sheets, I'd just look at the source material. Better yet, if it's a game, then I'd just play the game.
For example: The Grave/Digger fanfic that I've just wrote is filled with various POVs of the victims of the underground war that takes place in the game Grave/Digger.
