Why is all music evil and if the answer is to sell music then

>>19486891
all music is NOT evil, dumbass - music is the window to the soul.. rap is evil because it glorifies the shitty parts of the soul, as does most pop music.. hymns and so on are not evil because they glorify the better parts of the soul.

Why is it the only music that's successful

>>19486905
Successful under what criteria?
Money?
Shallow criteria -> very shallow music

popularity ≠ quality

most popular genres like pop, r&b and hip-hop are being exploited just to sell records and make money.

however there are artist that have integrity, there is good music being released today.

Power. Money. Influence.
Good music doesn't have to be evil.
Lot of indie bands are great.

I am convinced 90% of people who 'like' any given sort of music base their tastes entirely upon the social value of the opinions those tastes allow them to express

Because capitalism is evil

>>19486891
There's nothing evil about music.

But pop music (including what they laughingly call "hip hop") is stupid.

Brain dead shit for brain dead people.

Enjoy your sedative.

>>19486894
Not all rap is evil, I think you're all taking music way too seriously. Most people who enjoy hip hop enjoy the musicality, production and composition as much as they enjoy the lyrics, no ones taking what Tyler the creator or travis Scott say too seriously.

Chiiiiiiiiill.

And as always

Hey I didn't scroll all the way down but this guy gets it.

No one listens to a j dilla beat and grabs the nearest glock.
When the who and jimmy hendricks used to bash up there instruments on stage and sing about free love and drugs people thought it was evil.

The commercial aspects and rolled in branding etc are weird but they sell, that's all there is to it. Support music you love there's thousands of struggling musicians who'd be happy you reject pop.

And as always

Travis Scott's new music video 'Butterfly Effect' was dope. You could be creative in many ways, it's not all about lyrics.

>>19486891
The only evil music is religious music, trying to let you think do can not do anything without surrendering yourself completely to the entity the lyrics promotes.
Even more evil are the parents who brainwash their kids playing that crap over and over again.

>>19486891
music is evil because it makes you feel emotions
anger, sadness, etc

and that's mind control making you feel things when it's not real.
and mind control is evil

>>19486938
their second album is so awful but their first album is amazing

>>19486891

>>19486891
because evil is edgy and hip hop is reaching where metal was 25 years ago

All syncopated music was considered evil for a while, gaining momentum and popularity basically through driving the kids who listened to it crazy.

Basically if it was made by black people using African rhythm structures (Jazz, Soul, Blues, Rock, so-on) it's been considered evil and mind altering.

Try again when you listen to Wagner.

you need to have an objective moral system to define what exactly is evil.
