did you read the title past the first 9 words, or anything in the op? because if you did, you’d see why i called you illiterate

Feb 12Kinda crazy if people condemn someone like R Kelly and then go sing s*** like “Aaliyah’s got it” because they “separate the art from the artist” lmao
The art is an extension of the artist. So no, I don’t think it’s possible.

don’t care about the personal lives of any artist besides my fav
okay but when the art is about their personal lives, you can’t avoid that when listening to the art
Feb 12Stop expecting perfect morality from artists, or from human beings at all for that matter.
Accept who they are and from there choose to either indulge or avoid.
Feb 12·1 replyImAUsernameLikefor example, it’s easy to separate Chris Brown from his music because he doesn’t sing about beating/stalking his exes, but R. Kelly’s discography is full of “love” songs that are clearly about teenagers
i don’t think Playboi Carti raps about shooting a gun at his ex gf in his music, so it’s easy to overlook that, but many of Kanye’s recent lyrics are about how he’s still successful after getting allegedly canceled, so it’s difficult to overlook that when trying to enjoy the music for just how it sounds
“R. Kelly’s discography is full of “love” songs that are clearly about teenagers“

Free YoungBoyI pick and choose based on who the artist is but ultimately idc either way.

FlyHiiiI couldn’t care less personally. Since you can’t stay consistent in the context of every artist that has ever lived. Also great art is great art. I wouldn’t enjoy a film or piece of music less because I found out the person who made it is a POS. Art stands on its own

i use to take the accountability stuff serious but when i realized a lot of ppl are hypocrites i stopped caring
for me s***ty behavior is something i can overlook if the music sounds good enough. lines can be drawn ofc. i chose to assume most artists are horrible ppl anyways

okay but you’re completely ignoring the entire question
this thread isn’t about “should we listen to music from s***ty people”
it’s about when the music is about the s***ty things they’ve done

I ain’t never meet King Von
For some reason, I f*** with King Von
Rest in peace to King Von
Punch a b**** in they face like King Von 
Feb 12·1 replyyou don’t separate them
you either accept the artist with all their flaws & their work or you don’t
simple
If you feel morally conflicted then that’s something you personally deal with which is understandable but again it’s a personal thing
Feb 12·1 replybarry dillon· editedngl even in the r kelly context the music speaks to me. like im fully weirded out over dude's relationship with aaliyah n he literally sang at your best about that sht. but the song is just so undeniably good that it stands on its own. helps when there's a good cover I can listen to instead of Robert tho lol. ik isley brothers wrote it
!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-ei8V6pc04"at your best" is an isley brothers cover mane! but "age aint nothing but a number" should def be exiled lmao
