I’m against all such “favoritism” in the arts/music realm.

In my city I see some “players” trying to establish some sort of city/corporate panel that would promote “approved” artists/musicians (who obviously have the correct political stance).

Get out of the way and stop trying to sway the masses, if the connected artists were “good” enough they would get recognition based on the merit of their work(s), not just because they are politically connected.

He makes music that sounds like stuff played in workout classes filled with middle-aged women, or bachelorette parties.
