Listened to Billie Jean while cleaning, wondered what the all time playlist might be.

I imagine Kanye, Clapton, Pink Floyd, James Brown, Ike Turner all make the cut with MJ but I’m curious what Lemmy comes up with!

Was anything confirmed, or is this another set of career-ending allegations that people are stupidly accepting without concrete proof?

Not sure. I know the STUCA allegations were proven false.

Thanks for at least admitting it.

Dream, ProJared, Johnny Depp, and I think Toby Turner all come to mind. 3 out of the 4 were punished harshly for a crime they didn’t commit.

Not saying they have the best morals, but they all received punishments that did not fit what they actually did.

Educate yourself about the realities of fake rape/SA allegations and then come back

To be clear, I’m not commenting on the allegations, just people’s automatic acceptance of them. People need to be heard, but in a situation like this, both parties need to be equally scrutinized. You can’t deny that there are individuals who are taking advantage of recent movements and destroying people’s careers. That can be true even if the majority of allegations made are truthful.

Alestorm if you like pirate metal. Turns out the whole band was being super racist in their group chat though.

No, I only listened to Alestorm so I wasn’t going to comment on other music made by the same people.

What? Oh no… I just found them :( time to Google and then un-love them

Edit oh for pity’s sake… That’s awful, why do people do things like that. Damn, I guess I’ll just go ahead and trade in the CD I bought.

In a strange way, thank you for helping me find out sooner than later. :)

I still listen to them. I can separate the art from the artist. Hell, it’s hard to find a clean soul in a good artist out there, sometimes. I can’t deny that You Won’t Get What You Want was one of the most visceral experiences I’ve ever had listening to an album. Sometimes you can listen to something with knowledge of the experiences of the artist who made it and it can change or enhance your experience. Kind of like listening to Manson’s old folk music…

Regardless, yeah he’s a piece of shit. Doesn’t change the fact that Daughters is damn good music. At least YWGWYW. Hell Songs and Canada Songs are kind of meh for me.
