Well you gotta figure the people that actually enjoy modern rap and pop music don't exactly have a high musical IQ in the first place. Of course you still see gen z-ers and some millennials try to defend modern music as being as good as the classics, but they're really just deluding themselves.

I'm 19M college student from Texas and a huge Nick Cave fan, although that's mostly because he's my dad's(50M) favorite artist so I grew up listening to him. Saw him live in Austin a few years back and have tickets to see him again this fall... can't wait!

Love Nick Cave! Late forties and in Maryland here. I literally listen to everything, mostly classical (I’m a classical pianist), classic rock, and singer-songwriter music like Nick Cave is probably what I listen to most. I discovered him while watching the movie Zero Effect and they played Into My Arms almost in its entirety. It blew me away and I immediately bought like four Nick Cave CD’s from BMG (remember those CD club days?). His voice is just so clear and that low tone is so awesome. The piano playing is very minimalistic when compared to a Bruce Hornsby or Billy Joel. He definitely stands alone in his originality.

Nick is a wizard with words. Sometimes confusing, sometimes euphoric, sometimes terrifyingly sublime, but always intriguing. Discovered the Bad Seeds via Metallica of all bands, and went down the rabbit hole. Gave me a new perspective on writing and poetry. Love his novels. Love his soundtracks and scores.

Also, The Proposition is a fantastic film! Check it out if you haven't yet!

So stop listening to it. Pretty simple. I've pretty much stopped listening to hip hop entirely because I feel the genre has gotten stale and the heavy misogynistic lyrics really are off-putting to me. Other people are free to listen to it but I'll just go listen to something else.
