Since all those files are somewhere on your hard disk, this task can be split into 2 easier tasks:
1. How to find the music files on my hard disk?
2. How to move music files from my hard disk to my Droid Razr?
Which of the 2 do you need help with.

Of course, if you bought the music from Apple, it might be in a format not supported by your Razr or copy protected or encoded. In that case there comes a step in between:
1a. How to change the music files to a format that will play on my Razr?
But since you didn't tell details about the music, it's impossible to say if this complication will happen.

iTunes to droid music transfer

Very little purchased from Apple. Nearly all the music was saved from old CD's I copied to mu desktop, or converted from vinyl with a turntable I bought. I can find all the music on my desktop. No problem there. it's the transfer to the phone that has me stumped.

I can see why.

There is no unified, this is the only way to put music on adroid phones and tablets. I tried the old drop them into some music folder and was able to play the files. But as there are dozens of MP3 players for Android I wonder if you are awash with choices. Apple made it a bit simpler with reduction of choice. Here you have (too) many choices.

Did you try the simplest way?

Put them on a folder in the phone's memory?

I see this area is very well discussed but I can't narrow down the method you may use or choose. Right now we have an embarrassment of choices.
