Bob Dylan

I personally think that it was okay for Bob Dylan to only sing protest music because it was a trend at the time. Many people think it was wrong that he only sang this music because it was a trend but I personally think it was okay for him to do. Bob Dylan sang songs like Blowin' in The Wind, that many considered it be a protest song even though he claimed it wasn't. I think it was okay for people to think that it was but he didn't intentionally make it to be a protest song. I wouldn't be mad or angry with an artist if they made music during trends, if the song is good then that is all that matters to me. I don't really like music that addresses problems that are happening politically or in society. I don't think it is the best way for someone to voice their opinion. If someone wants to voice their opinion they should write a book, or talk to someone. A lot of people listen to music to forget about certain things. Also I would never change my point of view on something just because a famous artist feels a particular way about something. I am not upset that Bob Dylan only wrote protest songs because it was a trend, but I can understand why people would be upset. People may have been upset about it because the might feel like he didn't mean what he said.
