@Microw this implies that you can't make interesting music and be a decent human being ๐Ÿค“

Yeah that's not on purpose ๐Ÿ˜… But tbf I think a lot of these very artsy musicians turn out to be not so decent humans, so...

This isn't how venn diagrams work lol why is kid rock a category instead of a data point? And making interesting music is mutually exclusive with being a decent human?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

OK I'm stretching a little here, but... if I had a classification system, and had a data point that was outside of all my current sets, I might make a set for that one outlier. But there's a valid criticism that the sets are poorly-named. The sets are better named: (Artists who make good music, Artists who make interesting music, Artists who are decent human beings, Artists who are Kid Rock). And yes, thus far any time the data analyst has seen artists who make interesting music, those artists have not been decent human beings. Presumably once the data analyst sees an artist who is musically interesting and decent, they'll rearrange their diagrams. But the way it is now makes it look a little funnier.

To quote Kid Rock's "Midnight Train to Memphis - "Fuck a bitch, fuck a bitch, fuck a bitch"

So inspiring. The lines start at 2:52

Kid Rock had one album that was mostly good, and then one song.

He has spent all his time since then squandering the musical reputation that gave him.

"School's out forever, man, fuck education!"

...and that, ladies and gentlemen, is the kind of person who became a republican, is what they said upon getting that high school diploma.

Those fuckers got red-pilled hard, never knew what hit 'em. Murdoch had already softened them up, then #maga came along. Facebook turned their brains to overloaded mush and we didn't notice until it was too late, they fell for the loud angry and conspiracy corners of the internet and had all been ruined, beyond the reach of reason.
