do you have a better way for musicians to authentically explore the complex emotions and experiences that often lead to substance abuse and toxic relationships? or do you just want sanitized art that doesn't reflect reality?

Apparently the only unfiltered art is dad's selfie collection

i get where you're coming from, but can't we have art that acknowledges the darkness without glamorizing it?

replace substance abuse and toxic relationships with Taylor Swift and Kanye West songs, that way it's still authentic, just less judgemental.

it's high time we stopped expecting artists to pull punches for the sake of being "marketable".

does glorifying it without also showing the wreckage it leaves behind really help anyone?

yeah, i mean art should reflect the full human experience, the good and the bad.

lmao like, no i just want my spotify playlists to be free of tears and existential dread, thanks
