I listen to ALL artists and genres regardless of their beliefs and personal lives because I like them. I appreciate every note and verse they sing especially the Indys.

Before moving to Venezuela, I lived in Ohio and was a fan (still is) of Polish/Hungarian Jazz and Irakere (a Cuban Jazz Fusion Band). Poland and Hungary had Communist governments while Cuba (where my family is) did not have relations with USA.

I experienced the same problem Rock, Folk, and Americana Music as well as country by the same society in Ohio (which was governed by Republicans). I could have cared less because I am a Libertarian who believes in ALL Rights.

Regardless of the Politics, I loved the music but I was censored and criticized in Ohio for «collaboration» by people in that society. Had I had rejected such beautiful music because of politics, I would not have appreciated the Beauty of Paquito D Rivera’s saxophone or Arturo Sandoval’s Trumpet which I love.

If you want to agree or disagree, great if we can Keep it civil please because I believe in Free Speech.
