Where are the political anthems of today?

Your last paragraph proves the point that you bolded and are so whiny about.

Any way that isn't YOUR way is wrong to you.

If you actually had a 1/100,000 of 1% of an open mind or READ what I've posted, you'd see that I have posted many things that directly contradict this inane and inaccurate post of yours - "Basing it off of 1960s music industry standards just flatly fails to realize that the industry is not the same."

The reality is your mind is closed. You refuse to even contemplate anything that could help those who create the music. By doing so, you accept the mediocrity in an era that should exploding with legendary talent and fewer barriers for that talent to reach you.
 
Or you could buy singles at an historically cheap price. In the 60s/70s, depending on where you went you'd pay 49-99 cents for a single. The $0.99 single of today is the equivalent of a quarter or less in those days in raw money and even less in the buying power.

My bad, as long as you get what you want, you don't care if you destroy the fair earnings potential of many people. As long as you get what you think you want, you don't care that you aren't getting the best of what you should have gotten.


Do you ever stream movies on Netflix, etc? Using your logic you are a thief if you do so.
 
Just because when you were orca fat no one liked you doesn't mean you need to act like asshole the rest of your life.

MAYBE you should spend the $100 or so it cost to change your name to something other than a cheap porno star handle. MAYBE that would your attitude in life.

There's NOTHING funny or redeeming about your tired, pathetic act.
 
This Modest Mouse song, “lamp shades on fire” is a political anthem from just three years ago and has over 10 million views on YouTube (from several different versions combined). It’s about our society’s complete lack of political will to do something about climate change. Enjoy:

how about these bangers:


(rip nipsey)


they were everywhere during the women's march and may day in 2017

this song was the unofficial theme of most of the BLM protests that I attended and hugely popular as a protest anthem among the college activists that i have had in my classes


(beautiful video, too)

I think, like most things, this comes down to how older generations view younger generations. I don't expect RJ and WakeandBake to listen to Kendrick and YG just like I don't expect my 20something students to give a shit about CSNY and Parliament.

tl;dr the kids are (still) alright
 
Townie should really start training an apprentice so he wouldn’t have to bother with the super simple ones.

my backlog is just too full at the moment i don't even have the time to ramp up someone new

Love this song.
 
The artists do have a choice. Ever been able to steam (legally) a Tool song?
 
This is a very recent song I hear all the time on the radio and didn't realize is completely political. Bottom line, there are a boatload of political songs out there right now.

Some of the lyrics:

Selling melanin and then suffocate the black men
Start with misdemeanours and we'll make a business out of them

"I moved on her like a bitch"
Excited to be indicted
Unrequited house with seven pools
"Thank you Kanye, very cool"
The war has been incited and guess what?
You're all invited
And you're famous
Modernity has failed us

The costs of getting the singles to the consumer were a significantly higher in the 60s and 70s than it is today when adjusting for inflation. Your point makes no sense.

That's EXACTLY what I said.

What does "historically cheap price mean" to you?

What does "The $0.99 single of today is the equivalent of a quarter or less in those days" mean when the previous sentence said the cost in the 60s/70s was $0.49-/0.99?

Do you understand the English language at all??????
 
RJ is a stable genius, only he truly understands the English language
