Thread 515116889

Are you capable of appreciating artists despite sharing none of their beliefs or opposing them entirely?

For me, it's Maggie Rogers. On the surface, she embodies everything I loathe about modern female Pop. She's a progressive poster child who stumps for the Democratic Party, cites feminist theory like scripture and serenades a liberal middle class audience hellbent on transforming America into a political monoculture. This dissonance between her girl-next-door image on album with her high-class call girl Gala appearances also cannot be ignored. My inner Carl Schmitt demands the friend/enemy distinction, but I sheath my sword for her. Beneath the activism lies something rarer than ideological alignment: raw humanity.

Surrender sounds like a private journal blasted through stadium-sized hooks. Energetic and upbeat songs like "Shatter", "Want Want" and "Overdrive" hit with fuzzed adrenaline while "Be Cool" exhales into groove-cooled calm. Other songs like "Anywhere With You" and "Begging for Rain" drip with melancholy without being maudlin. Nothing stagnates; even the quiet tracks stay in motion.

Maggie's resonant purity inspires building futures or collapsing into into the arms of someone who loves you after a brutal day. All told, it may be the most unapologetically human album ever to breach Pop radio

As long as the art itself isnt political

All the music I listen to is made by degenerate faggot leftists and niggers

>>515116889 (OP)

All art is fake and gay.

>>515127446
Au contraire. Art allows one to comprehend the noumena/the Will, ergo it is actually more real than the material world.

What about a trans woman?

Art is a fraudulent attempt to cheat time by stealing genuine emotion and trying to preserve it in a format that allows those in the future to leech off of an emotion should that should have been left to exist only in the moment it happened. It can never achieve this goal, rather it starts a series of perversions until it no longer represents what inspired it. Very fake. Very gay.

My take on this is i absolutely love artists I disagree with. A lot of their art, whether it's music or paintings or whatever, is an expression of the way they've viewed the world so far, and i think exposes one to the flaws of their worldview.

Take for instance Marina Diamandis. Absolutely AMAZING artist, incredibly influential. I even bought her book of poems. So many of her problems, from her depression, her anxiety, so many things, IVE STRUGGLED WITH, and theyve gotten better through discipline, family, and conservatism ; from her perspective though, I find it absolutely beautiful that such a human soul could be so tragically lost in this world, and they become resentful, even hateful of the world and its norms as a defense mechanism or measure of insecurity. But make no mistake, I can easily separate her from her art, but both appreciate her as a person and her art, and i can distance myself from both on that level as well.

>>515119307
That's actually decent.
I really don't care about the politics part when comes to music, and most modern music this days is trash

I can't watch any Tom Cruise movies because of his Scientology bullshit. The video he tried so desperately to delete from the internet is still very present in my mind.

Your interpretation of her music is retarded, you don't understand the psychological motivations behind artistic expression.
I've listened to her music, her art is a cry for help because her spirit is lost in globohomo. If a strong, rational, moral man dicked her down she'd immediately switch up her music to a more positive vibe, and then soon after stop doing it altogether. I've met tons of women like this, they become artists as a sexual strategy. She is trying to emotionally trick chad into giving up the dick because she can't compete with good wives via quality wifehood, and she can't compete with the hot sluts with sex. Now, because the left claimed her music, she can't easily find a chad, and likely has to settle for the pedro pascal "soft man" shit. You'd be surprised how much of female art is just an unconscious chad dick acquisition strat.

It's literally that simple.

A great deal of modern "pop culture" is literally just porn with extra steps and propaganda mixed in and its arbiters and publishers are openly zionist.

Music, movies, television, video games, literature, visual and performing arts, and so on. Art needs real merit to succeed without Haram.

We have reached a point where I'd say the vast majority of pop culture is watered down porn with deranged political messaging, and that this is a reflection of our Weimar state.

I believe that Islam can be instrumental and saving and preserving Western culture, to bring us back a time when traditional values and traditional culture gave us great works.

Endless deconstruction of the past and transgression of social and cultural norms in place of actual value and substance is a dead end road.

>I believe that Islam can be instrumental in* saving and preserving Western culture, to bring us back a time when traditional values and traditional culture gave us great works.

This is what God believers build, for the glory of God. What do our architects build today? What are our great works? Bank buildings and private mansions for zionists.

Cold, closed off spaces that openly reject and even rebel against beautiful tradition and achievements of the past. The heart and soul is gone, the divine spark that drives the artist to transcendent greatness that requires faith in God.

Art has generally declined as a result of secularization. Style over substance, abstractness over hard work and skill. You can't tell me that a renaissance painting is on the same level as a banana taped to a canvas. No, I just won't accept it. We can do better, I know we can.

Maybe. Her follow up album is about dealing with separation
