Lil Nas X, "WAP" and Music Outrage with Evan Sawdey

People are mad about music again. And we kinda love it! Kiel Hauck is joined by Evan Sawdey of PopMatters to discuss the cultural outrage associated with Lil Nas X's new single "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)", Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's Grammy performance of "WAP", along with a general movement back toward backlash. They discuss why outrage about music seemed diminished in recent years, why it appears to have returned, and what kind of conversation should ensue. They also reflect on a previous generation of music backlash, the evolving nature of protest music, and why it's so vital to elevate music and artists that have something important to say. Listen in!
