and liking a billionaire does not make someone good or bad.

Buddy we all make mistakes. Liking a billionaire is simply not good don't try to hide yourself behind an excuse. The world has much better artists and music to offer.

So what as soon as a musician or artist hits a big enough line in the sand we all have to stop liking their music?

Musicians and artists are people who focus on music and art. Billionares are businessmen who focus on making money. As many others are highlighting in the thread a billion dollars is a ridiculous amount of money that you don't simply hit, you have to seek profits above everything else and work your way up there.

I agree, but you said I need to stop listening to her. I disagree with that. I can still listen to her music and enjoy that while also at the very same time think that she is a billionaire who should be giving most of her wealth away.

I didn't say you need to stop listening to her. I encouraged you to listen to the much better artists and music that the world has to offer.

That goes into opinion. I personally really like her music, I listen to a lot of others too, but I'm not going to stop listening to my favorite.
