I want to ask

> What songs do you like?

Is

> なにをうたがすきですか？

the correct way of asking that?

I am trying to get better at building sentences but I have no way of knowing
whether or not the sentence is correct, is it a problem if I continue to post
questions like this here?

Thanks

I will answer your to the best of my ability but it was just a stone's throw
from when I was at your level. Let's look at your sentence.

> なにをうたがすきですか?

"何{なに}を" is marked as the direct obect, but there is no verb to take it. 好{す}き
is an adjective and です is the copula, so you need to rephrase your sentence.

どんな is OK since it means "what kind (of)..." so an acceptable sentence such as

> どんな歌{うた}が好きですか?

or

> なんの歌が好きですか ?

would suit your needs.
