Comment on The lack of "real world complaints" and "anger" in popular music genres helps keep the masses docile
CarlsIII@kbin.social 11 months agoWould 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.

No, I was aware that exceptions would exist, as trends are merely trends, they do not mean something is true 100% of the time.
I imagine op was also aware that political pop songs still get made, and was not trying to say that zero exist.

I suppose there is some hedging in “seems to be absolute zero”

Yea I guess I missed that part. I just skimmed the post, the gist they were going for wasn’t too hard to figure out.
