Well, I know it's always framed that way. But I disagree -- I don't think Sondheim and Gershwin were any cultural degradation from artists like Gilbert and Sullivan, Noel Coward, etc. I'd say they were right in line.
A clever artist doesn't need to the explicit vulgarity of WAP; it's not just a degradation of culture, it's a degradation of what passes for talent in today's culture. |
