before you start badmouthing the trumpcession, please remember that last time we had a recession we were blessed with musical masterpieces like the black eyed peas "boom boom pow". when god closes a door he opens a window

This time around I think the really catchy tunes are waiting for the Trumpression. Hopefully Tom Waits has a couple of releases waiting. Because nothing says 'dust bowl' like Tom Waits.
I just went back to listening to angry protest songs. Consolidated's stuff seems to be timeless. Right down to RU486. Soho, Jello Biafra, Dead Kennedys, Nick Cave, RATM ... It can drown out any Trumpeting going on around me.
I'm having a lot with trouble seeing anything godlike in any of this. God is love, this is hate; god knows the future, these people can't predict they'll cast a shadow if they stand in the sunshine.
Since Trump confirmed his grand tariff plan in early February, the Dow Jones has fallen by 10 per cent, wiping more than $US1.5 trillion from its value.
This angers me. Children will starve while being indoctrinated. Veterans will be forgotten and disposed like yesterday's trash. Ecosystems will wither as our air/water suffocates. Free people will be shackled and maimed for saying "NO".
But don't worry. We have songs from the tragedy.

Actually, when God closes a door it stays closed, but we get the drift. So how many of today's big artist muse about something more important than their personal angst? One, two, a few. Hopefully Kendrick is ready to turn his pen in a different direction. That last fork stick killed Canada Dry.
I need stability, not a song. I want to actually retire, and not have to work till death. I’ve already had a knee replacement from working 68-70 hour weeks in a factory.
Musical masterpieces don’t feed people or pay bills. I’m a music lover but I think things are in such a dark place right now that a recession will devastate millions of Americans.
I would like to agree with you. Now hear me out here. How are people going to be able to play music if they can't pay for the internet to use Pro Tools to make mixes, and no one can afford the instruments and set up? Most musicians of back then, don't have the drive now. And samples have been over ▶️
What a coincidence - Putin likes open windows, He finds them very convenient when his opponents jump out. He also finds a trashed US economy very convenient, allowing his buddies to jump into control
Sure, let’s get great songs while people starve can’t pay their bills get Social Security taken away from them can’t pay for medical treatment.. but hey, we’ll get some great music to play at funerals.. that is a ridiculous statement that was made. I’ll sacrifice the Black Eyed Peas.
Totes!
Music just gets better in the face of adversity.
Can you imagine going through the recession of 2008 without the emotional support of "Tonight" by the Jonas Brothers, or "Viva la vida" by Coldplay?
No, me neither.
This isn't funny! Music won't save anyone. If not carefully stopped, it could lead to a full depression like 1929. People killed themselves, families had no work, food shortages prevailed and if you like bread lines vs food banks, prohibition, your stocks will be worthless, doors will shut!
It's going to be way worse than that, considering our political standing in the world. I keep thinking about what Hitler would've done, had he had access to nukes and the ability to launch them across the globe. Guaranteed, he wouldn't have just committed suicide in a bunker.
Maybe not, but he is was deep inside a weak man, not unlike Trump and we must keep challenging and disposing of Republicans in power at all levels unless they come to their senses and stand up for what our ancestors fought for to give each one of us a better life! I refuse to don a white bonnet!
just bought eggs on sale yesterday. they are yummy too. goes wewll with a good nice crispy bacon we got plenty off too. actually around 70 million pigs around here. we are totally used to pigs in my nation. and we love to butcher them for them to stuff them in their own ass and eat them as hotdogs.
being in the industry we also know sometimes a track gets overheard and we feel its worn to our eargasmic sound pleasures. sounds are vibrations that even resonates throughout the entire Universe. and why its a universal language,even animals understand!
Before I was elected I told you Joe Biden's economy was shitty. Abracadabra I made it so! The S&P 500 is only down 4 trillion dollars! Hey how's that 401k going for you. Stock portfolio? This is where I blame it on Bidenomics. Well not to worry you can live off your Social Security or maybe not?

I see your optimism… but I imagine when you hear so much mellow crap on the radio and you’ve nothing & are angry, that’s cold comfort.
Good stuff. Good to see other folks who recognize Consolidated 🍻

Very Russian.
Nowadays...
Come on, artists. Step up!
Just make sure a russian oligarch doesn’t push you out of it…
“Fuck Donald Trump.”

No, me neither.
I don't think anyone sane would agree that new songs are worth starving hardworking families and taking away basic #HumanRights.
#Support the real #America.
#Defend the #Constitution.
