Oh. Something happening in the past influencing how people in the present act isn’t that unusual.

Are you trying to say that there isn’t any currently popular music with “angry” lyrics because these artists are afraid of being killed?

I wouldn’t go so far as to call it a singular purpose, things are seldom that cut-and-dried, where this person over here made the choice they did just because of that one, singular, reason.
I would call it an influential event in the chilling of political music though. Which is a little ironic, since if I remember right, the guy that shot him was just mentally ill.

Would your view change if I revealed to you that current popular artists DO have songs featuring “anger” and “real world complaints?” Here‘a one example. I’m not a huge pop fan so I don’t currently have any other examples at the moment.
