Ugly people make music all the time.

You really gonna tell me Ed Sheeran is good looking? Post Malone?

[–] [email protected] 59 points 3 weeks ago

He looked better pre-Malone

Is that Ed!? Holy shite he’s really changed his look!

Tap for spoiler/s

Where's his chin?

But the contention is about music being better, and that's some bad music.

Did we read the same post?

Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it

I guess your comment makes sense if you find those two attractive.

Like I get the boomer joke of music these days sucks but my comment was leaning into joke.

Yeah, and Jack White aint pretty either.

Imo, this post is better directed at hollywood

Jack White

He looks good enough to me.

Your comment makes sense in the frame of "ugly people are allowed to make music," my comment refers to the "music was better" part of the post.

The ugly people you mentioned don't support your comment's argument against the original assertion because their music is terrible, not "better."

Some music sucked in the boomer's days, made by ugly and pretty people alike.

He’s simply disputing the assertion that ugly people aren’t allowed to make music.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah, that's what the comment you replied to starts with.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah so what’s your problem with what he said then?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 weeks ago

Why did you reply to my comment to restate the first part of what I said?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Adele isn't that good looking as well, but she is well loved as a singer.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You've got some warped standards for beauty.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

But she used to be kinda fat tho....

I’ve never heard his music, but I think Post Malone is beautiful
