do you know what I

3:49

mean like let's record this thing I just

3:53

I feel like it's kind of mine like when

3:55

for example Morrissey right he has some

3:57

potentially kind of nationalistic kind

3:59

of views sure

4:01

but what his work means to him doesn't

4:04

mean the same what it means to me so for

4:05

that example for that reason I kind of

4:07

think it's it's my it's not

4:09

I can separate it essentially all right

4:11

it's not his work anymore it's it's work

4:14

for the world to to listen to and to

4:16

analyze and to make what they wanted to

4:18

sure but where I'm stuck is

4:21

I also like someone like Kanye West's

4:23

music I like right but if I'm gonna buy

4:26

it and then giving him money and I'm

4:28

very aware that he has like anti-semitic

4:31

views

4:32

sure you know Morrissey has also has

4:34

some very kind of maybe borderline

4:36

racist definitely nationalistic key kind

4:38

of stuff going on in his moral compass

4:41

so do you think you can separate it is

4:43

it possible I think you probably can

4:46

separate it I think the issue I always

4:48

have a if I'm honest is whether

4:50

someone's actually producing the art

4:52

because they believe in the art right or

4:54

whether they are actually being more of

4:56

a commercial I mean because that's what

4:57

people want to see that's what they're

4:59

expecting so yes I do get there are

5:02

people who actually produce art for our

5:03

sake yeah

5:04

um I
