politics VS music

Politics is so black and white and what’s great about music is that it’s above and beyond that . Music is so complex and it has all these organic mechanisms and life forces and flora growing inside it. It’s so unpredictable, like nature, and you can’t put it in a box. It’s belittling it to say music is left or right or pro-this or anti-that. It’s a much bigger force than that.
