Void’s philosophical quandaries... (Part 1)

Is a song ( or songs) good if it itself is good (you like the beat, flow, style, pace and so forth), however the meaning or message is bad? are [b]your[/b] morals questioned by listening to such a song? Would [b]you[/b] share the song if it is enjoyable however morally wrong? Would [b]you[/b] want to meet the artist(s)? Answer these questions to the fullest and the void’s vaults shall be opened for your choosing of its bounty... [spoiler]perhaps you could join the void...[/spoiler]

    I’m leaning towards no, but I just read an article about the 13 reasons Kanye isn’t going to heaven so idk There are objective ways to judge art. Any work of art can be competently composed while having a meaning that isn’t “good”. At that point, you have to weigh the literal qualities against the more abstract. It’s a lot easier with music as you can ignore the lyrics, which is typically how the message is conveyed. You can see the same sort of issue with statues of Confederate leaders, where the ideals behind them vastly overshadow the medium.
