Successful white musical groups that manage to penetrate the mainstream will inevitably suffer anti-white backlash. It happened with nickelback, it happened with imagine dragons, it happened with Taylor swift, it’s starting to happen with 21 pilots.
The fact that some or all of these groups suck is irrelevant; plenty of non-white groups become popular despite being horrible, and the entire industry doesn’t spontaneously turn on them.
The only way to avoid this cycle is to bail for country music (where criticism doesn’t matter) or embrace ghetto culture (a la Billie eilish).
All of this is to say that the music industry is thoroughly converged and pozzed. Thankfully, the internet decentralized music beyond “repair”. People don’t even listen to new music anymore. Something like 70% of all streamed music is more than 20 years old.
I love older country but I see country music making the mistake of pandering to groups that don’t generally listen to country. Taylor Swift got annoying with her political ranting. Granted I stopped listening or keeping up with modern music in the very early 00s. What happened to Imagine Dragons? I didn’t think they were bad outside of the lecturing about lgbt rights
Lol. Well if I erase all my music over politics it would be pretty empty. But I generally ignore their opinions. I’m very retro with music so that’s good for me
Classical music is vastly underrated, I have a whole playlist created around finding the best renditions of the masters. A well done Moonlight sonata or instrumental ave Maria conveys more emotional depth without words than any modern pop crap. Also, check out mood for a day by yes, you can thank me later.
Anyone that wants to be outspoken about supporting shit that's antithetical to my believes doesn't get my support. I avoid funding people who want to destroy me

I'm honestly trying to remember the most recent song I've heard, let alone enjoyed.
Neither of these are appealing prospects. I'd rather just enjoy good music and tell the mainstream to go fuck itself with its trash taste.
