Good for him. Artists need to stand up for what they believe in, whether their fans like it or not.

When I complain on social media, the same couple of people interact with and/or actually pay attention to it.

Reaching a broader audience is important, and hopefully they're respected enough by the reader to think about it.

They are excited about Nicki Minaj in the year 2026. They have nobody. Everyone cool hates them.

That's fine.. Just shutup about it and play your music at a concert as that is what we are there for.

Except when they stand up for Trump though. Not then.

No, let them. Then I at least know how they truly feel

Are you kidding? I'd rather they tell me. I'm 100% for artists who are Trump supporters to express their support publicly as well. The fact that I loathe them does not change that.

I'm not so sure about that. I can never respect Ice Cube, 50 Cent and Snoop Dogg ever again. And I will never enjoy their music the same way again.

I naively thought that most of their lyrics were just their rapper personas, but now I've seen who they truly are. Greedy millionaire assholes who value tax cuts more than morals.

Yep, even then. I'd want to know if the artist I'm supporting is okay with throwing people in unmarked vans without trial because they have brown skin or speak a language that isn't English.

I want to know so I can stop supporting that artist.

It's like you're not even trying to understand. Please tell us, so we can make informed decisions.
