Sort of how I don’t want to listen to Die Antwoord either but I know it’s amazing art.

Another old white guy here. I can't stand rap, can't stand hip-hop, i can't stand any musical genres even close to either one of them.
But what I don't get is how I trained musician, such as yourself, can look at any of that and have anything good to say about it. I couldn't stand to listen to more than a few seconds of a Die Antwoord "song" and I would consider anybody that enjoys their music to either be mentally defective or socially undesirable.
I think Kanye's music sucks, I think his life has been the world's longest train wreck and I really can't forgive him for some of the stupid **** he's done.
As an occasional fine art painter, I do appreciate art, but I'm not of the opinion that everything is art. Some of it is just crap.
