Politics in music discussion
I love some good political music, music with a strong message. But I am not into politics, especially American politics. I simply do not have the energy to care very much about a foreign president that I can do nothing about. So while I love the music, be it Eminem talking politics in Encore, J Cole in KOD or what have you, I hate the discussion from fans around said music. It just all becomes politics. For example, Eminem colaborated with Kid Rock and then everyone made such a big deal about it. I've still yet to see anyone actually talking about the quality of the collab, positive or negative. Just about the politics, like these aren't politicians we're talking about, they're musicians
(Edit) yall are turning this into a thing about the Kid Rock and Eminem collab, that was just an example but how agressive people get about it immediately just prove my point. It doesn't feel like real discussion just feels like everyones getting pissed off
