    Music has always been entertaining, informative, controversial, and political. One only has to look at 60s and 70s music. Very politically charged. Hendrix, Dylan, RATM, et al. So, I don’t require artists and musicians to quell their political core beliefs in their songs. However, when their political core beliefs, coupled with just being an outright asshole, overshadows the enjoyment of their music, I tend to turn a deaf ear. Kid Rock plays well with the redneck crowd, so there’s that.
