Accountability in Music • Page 384

This seems... fucked.

I'm certainly no legal expert, but were the texts made public outside of the court case? If not, how can a private text message be considered defamatory?

 

It only requires making the statement to a single person.

The ruling that he wasn’t “a public figure” in 2016 is quite ridiculous.

 

There are so many talented women making music today all around the world and it’s quite ridiculous that some festivals are still so male dominated.

 

Wow, there are some horrid replies to that tweet. A lot of men getting very offended that anyone would ever even remotely imply that gender/sexism plays into the disparity between the number of male and female performers. It actually hurts lol...

 

The draag me/Spirit of the Beehive guy should probably delete the caption of him using the N-word on Facebook, lol. What are people thinking?

 

I think a lot about if my music taste would be different if there was more recognition of women in music when I was developing my music tastes in middle school/high school.

 

Melanie Martinez just announced a massive tour but accusations ruin careers

 

wait what

 

I was surprised too. Yes, in this day and age, people still think it's ok to use facebook.

 

I saw I had a mutual friend with him through the Philly scene so I was on his FB and one of his captions has him using the N-word.

 

goddamnit

 

Not that it matters, but it looked like it was from years ago. I was more baffled that he still has it up there. I assume it was him quoting a song, but yeah. Stupid and put a damper on the album before I even listened.

 

On today's episode of Billie Joe Armstrong is a garbage person:
Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong responds to criticism he faced for working with Morrissey

This man really said "hey, we all have our Ted Nugents, right?"

 

I took that more of him calling Morissey Britain’s version of Ted Nugent

 

The very large amount of people who still stan Morrissey is really, really disappointing

 

tré cool is the one who actually said "hey we all have our ted nugents"

 

That was also how I interpreted his comment.

 

This is so fucking disgusting

 

Yikes. Katherine Ryan handled that impossible situation about as well as anyone could. The crowd felt so so uncomfortable.

 

what exactly is happening in that video?? I’ve watched it twice and don’t get it

 

Rapper Slowthai hurls 'champagne glass' into NME awards crowd | Daily Mail Online

More detailed, some different angles.

 

yikes

 

I wonder what people were seeing on their TVs during that nightmare of a situation. Cut to commercials?

 

It was the NME awards, it definitely wasn’t on TV haha
