or not? Xavier Naidoo, Morrissey, Roger Waters, Lorde – even 2017, many pop musicians have politically questionably positioned themselves. What is new, however, is how to deal with it.

    With pop music It is as follows: She has always been a playground of tangled Köpfenund freaks. It has always been populated by Künstlernund artists who, on demand or even unquestioned, politischeAnsichten stalled or turned out to be sexist macho; How had not even after reading an interview or a Musikerporträtsdas feeling that one of a person who has such a view or Sounangenehm appears, actually no more music hörenmöchte. For example, one of pioneers of rock ' n ' roll music, Elvis Presley, PädophileNeigungen and a firearms fetish, and entertained guteBeziehungen to more politically than shady types like DemzeitgenössischenUS-PräsidentenRichard Nixon. Many people still do not stop it from listening to PresleysMusik – Weilihnen dubious character of Elvis is eir unheard of or unknown or because y believe that one should separate demKünstlerund from his work.

    So far, so normal. Neverless, just-expired Popmusikalische Jahrzu was determined essentially by question of wher one would actually hörendarf or want music certain people, even though y were just as gefährlicheTrottel and/or sexist or orwise Character pigs have turned out – alswäreder circumstance that not all großenMusiker are also bright Köpfeoder moral light, audience is completely new to DenBlick. 2017 seemed to have significantly reduced tolerance of Publikumsmit-making idiots and villains; On or hand, madness on part of artist's shank climbed astonishing heights.

    Dasbegann with Lieblingssoulsängerder German, Xavier Naidoo, and his Frühlingshit puppets, in which he Tötungfreigab all people who are politically tätigsind. "I only get one (politician) in his finger," said Esdarin, "dannzerreiß I in tatters/and re also no hiding behind Paragraphenund laws." Tötenmüsseman all politicians because y "distort facts" undsich "innocent mispasses". On side of right Wutbürger, this immediately fürBegeisterunged: "XavierNaidoo calls for resistance," cheered Pegida magazine Compact, and NPD Rhein Neckar also rejoiced in its partisans. Elsewhere, y wondered if Naidoo Überhauptnoch a A serious artist.

    Dierichtige answer to that is: Yes and no. On one hand Mussman not even be particularly strict to determine that Naidoosverkrampftes Geknödelalles possible, but not a serious art. On or hand, Sollteman at least take his political statements seriously. That has hardly been case so far, but Naidoo had already verschiedentlichals speakers with Reich citizens, Putinfreunden and anti-Semites. During one of ErstenMontagsdemonstrationen 2014, from which SpäterPegida developed, his listeners explained why Germany is still "Keinrichtiges land" – because Nämlichimmer is still "eurochinacom Americans occupied" and refore also " Keinerichtige Constitution '. The majority of a fellow musician, however, tended to smile UndRelativieren, according to motto: Somehow bird is not quite fresh in pear, but he gehörtdoch to family. Whoever criticized Naidoo was defamed as a member of a left "police force" (Marek Lieberberg) or as a "terrorist" (Til Schweiger).

    Would Morrissey have stayed in bed

    After puppet song, Naidoo's orwise so easily excitable friends remained surprisingly calm. Apparently, he had now crossed a border beyond which he was no longer to defend – or political situation in country is so ungemütlichgeworden, that even as a well-meaning Naidoo-trailer his right omissions are no longer as droll Spinnereienverniedlichen can. On his new, n in November erschienenenAlbum Trad held back with political utterances at any rate.

    Ähnlichwie Steven Patrick Morrissey, who at beginning of his neuenLangspielwerks LowIn High School, expressed view derpolitischen world, no more news to Hörenund instead of staying in bed (Spent day in bed). The Wäreals furr semi-interesting late work of a once eminent Künstlersdurchgegangen, Hättedieser not shortly after appearance of work ausführlichdargelegt his aktuellenpolitischen views in an interview. Against Mirror reporter Juliane Lieber, Morrissey complained, among or things, of fact that Angela Merkel had made OffenenGrenzen Berlinzur rape capital through her politics. In Übrigensei it is important that Germany stay German and Beispielsweiseauch France French. After this interview, question was asked again wher to "Jetztnoch" Morrissey-Plattenhörenkann, where "reallocations cynical doubters became ultimate Idiosynkrat", as was said in time.
