jeffwMacklemore’s anthem for Gaza is a rarity: A protest song in an era of apolitical music
KecessaPunk musicians be like “Music is apolitical???”
Shitty pop music has never been political.
Eh, there’s some pretty famous examples of pop music being political. Weirdly, the most recent example I can think of off the top of my head is Green Day’s American Idiot, which had a couple tracks that were pretty political. I will say that it’s probably been a straight decline in pop music being political since the ‘60s.
I thought green day was a punk rock band. Like the offspring.
Both are pop punk in my book. Green Day are pretty mainstream by the time you get to 2004
Steal WoolPunk rock =/= pop punk
American Idiot will be 20 years old when September comes.
Wake me up when it ends.
