Artists Should Stick to the Music | Wilmington News
Description
John Cooper of Skillet argues that in today’s polarized world, artists like himself who express Christian or patriotic views face more backlash than their left-leaning counterparts—whose political stances often earn them mainstream praise and opportunities. He insists concerts should be about music and escape, not politics, even as figures like Bruce Springsteen turn performances into political platforms. While Cooper respects artists’ freedom to speak, he believes audiences increasingly expect entertainment without agendas—and that’s why staying true to the craft might be the wisest move.
