What happened to Rolling Stone?

Nothing. If you've ever read Rolling Stone, they're actually more of a liberal politics magazine than a music magazine.

Has Rolling Stone ever actually been an influential publication, other than maybe artists "getting the Rolling Stone cover"? Pitchfork pretty much brought Arcade Fire and Bon Iver into the mainstream, as well as ruined the careers of Jet and Travis Morrison. Has Rolling Stone ever had actual influence over something?

At least my post answered the OP question and was on topic.
Keep your /pol/ hate confined to reddit please.

>implying one is better than the other

music > your triggers

anyways rolling stone was never good. any reviewer rating music using numbers, grades, stars, etc. is retarded. listen to music and decide if it's worth anything you fucking drones

>>69987051
>why are you so desperate for attention?
I could ask the same to you.
Why bring up the alt right?
why bring up pol?
why complain about the thread?
why complain about my posts?
What are you after, faggot?
Why not just answer OPs question and contribute with that discussion?

>>69987005
but the music industry and tastes are run by political climate

lmao I was the second person to respond.
>Why bring up the alt right?
because you are infesting this board with your bullshit such as "libcuck", it's irrelevant and not related to music.
>why bring up pol?
because you should return there and spread your hatred for people unlike yourself to your hearts content there without bothering us.
>why complain about the thread?
huh? when?
>why complain about my posts?
because it was stupid and I have to right to do so
>What are you after, faggot?
Yet again, I repeat, simply >>>/pol/ and don't come back.

Millenial pseudo-intellects sarcastically quipped their way into their ranks and rotted it from the inside out. Same thing that happened to Pitchfork.

Rolling Stone was always garbo though, don't worry.

When are the highschool kids done with winter break

They cater to popular opinion like always.
