Yes. It would be good to know what is problematic about them though with at least some context.
Should also do the opposite though, have a pinned thread of artists that are cool.

Yeah cool artist lists sounds better
Noted!
My ultimate problematic fave who I recently even found out collected nazi memorabilia is the king of pop, I grew up with his music and it's so nostalgic to me.
Really? MJ was a nazi sympathiser?
I guess I don't get the impulse behind such a move. Is it for fun? Is it to try to create a larger movement to divest from those artists? Is it to say that people should no longer consumer their music?
Tbh I'm always wary when there's such a negative focus on finding out if something or someone neutral/"apolitical" is problematic, and like, digging to find that. It makes the left look out-of-touch and puritanical, and keeps us distracted by unmaterialistic bullshit. Not that cancellation is never effective or helpful, but looking for problems is such a boring and tiring way to live. Would love a thread of artists that are especially based.
Yeah I'd agree a thread of based artists is better, encourages future artists to also remain based.
The artists with negative comments will naturally die out because less people will talk about them in comparison to the based ones.
Like the theory of "stop giving serial killers cool names, call them something silly and defaming"
I recently learned about the guy from Blood On the Dance Floor 
Would be good to know things in advance before putting a song on as a joke
Fucking Rammstein i can never listen to that r***ist shit again.
What it's racist? How so?
I don't think "racist" is the censored word here

My reaction to this thread:
I mean I know about the kanye drama but dont get what this gif is trying to convey.
I'm bein' goofy, but it would be my reaction to this thread if an artist I love pops up
Right on right on!
