TreeMap treeMap = new TreeMap();

Hi what if I have

  1. treeMap.put("1","John","player");
  2. treeMap.put("2","John","singer");
  3. treeMap.put("3","Vicky","singer");

and want to check if one of the values contains string "singer".
Is it possible to do that?

Map map = new TreeMap();

  1. Map<Integer, String> map = new TreeMap<Integer, String>();
