What happened to popular musicians protesting the government?
Green Day wrote an entire album that went stratospheric protesting George Bush. The Dixie Chicks stood up for their beliefs against the war in Iraq despite the insane blowback. Hell, Bob Dylan didn’t get a fuck about repercussions, he wrote fuck you songs because he knew what was right and what was wrong.
Are artists now just too scared to lose Republican listeners? Have they all gone soft? I am trying to remember any major artists even making a definitive statement but it seems like every artist now just caters to everyone.
