Stop Blaming Musicians For Negative Human Behavior
Entertainment is bought to our attention through
different platforms, among its creators we find musicians. Musicians rap or
sing about their life experiences with the aim to entertain. As an individual who
listen to this music you have a choice to decide on how to react to what their
saying.
So often you find people blaming musicians that they
are responsible for the behavior of people that they influence in a bad manner.
The musicians are not to be blamed, but instead the listeners who allow the
musicians to influence them. If the blame is really on the musician then people
should be fair and acknowledge the good ideas highlighted by some artists,
because they don’t sing about the same perspectives regarding their
experiences, so it is likely that some do promote positive attitude. A good
example is the campaign “SHOUT for a safer South Africa” initiated by Kabelo Mabalane and Danny K.
I admit, we see musicians as our role models but
let’s not forget that at the end of our listening session of a particular song,
you are an individual who is capable of making his/her choices. Lets stop being
judgmental and stand proud for our musicians who manage to entertain us.
