While most popular music is secular – in that its about the things of this world, making no mention of the divine or spiritual – “Imagine” by John Lennon is explicitly secularist.

In Lennon’s telling, religion is an impediment to human flourishing – something to be overcome, transcended.

The Carter’s were disgusting globalists who had their sights set on destroying the Christian church from within. Brooks and Yearwood are sickening leftists who tries to destroy country music from within

"Imagine” by John Lennon is explicitly secularist."

I would say explicitly nihilist.
