its not shocking or edgy, i think WTJ just figured out what it took to get paid in the music industry and he is giving them what they want. can't blame the guy for wanting to make $. you could call him a sell out, but if it isn't him, its going to be someone else a
Sorry for necrobumping this in case that's against the rules of the forum, but I feel like this has to be said:
The argument that "if it isn't him, it's going to be someone else" just doesn't hold water. That's the logic of order-followers. That's like nazis shooting pregnant women in the head because, heck, "if I don't do it, someone else will anyway", and they'd rather avoid risking their own lives. That type of logic is, quite literally and without exaggerating, the root of all evil; this happens to be reflected in the more "demonic" nature of their recent "work", if one can call it that.
It doesn't really matter that someone starts out being intelligent and doing art to critique society, if they sell out to evil forces that's still what they're doing, so appealing to how they were before doing so is moot. Plenty of people who have sold out to the elites started out like that too.
