Do you listen to an artist cause of the music, or is it usually because of a music vid or image like..

Y'know, to say image isn't of any importance is foolish. Unless you're rapping or producing masterpieces, image is going to play a role. I think it hurts talented artist when their image is boring too.

Look at the way Nas and Kweli dress.

Then look at the way Jay-Z, Mos Def, Andre 3000 dress.

I wouldn't even remotely fuck with Danny Brown if image mattered to me.

How creative and abstract you are as a musical artist and lyricist goes first for me but I guess image does play a role a bit (But I still listen to MF Doom, Danny Brown, ect) so it doesn't have huge importance for me I guess.

Even the perceived absence of a constructed image is an image.

The music is easily the most important aspect of an artist to me.

There are some rappers like Nas where even though I know what he looks like I have a hard time picturing him, dude has no imagery.

Music is the most important thing but the imagery and their "image" also plays a role, like it doesn't affect whether or not I like the music but I can find it really interesting/fuck with it.

Andre & Yeezus dress like homosexuals
Hopsin is on some weird shit.
R Kelly pisses on people
Max B murders/robs people
Danny Brown is just...I don't even have a word for him tbh.

I listen to all of them regularly, I don't care about image at all :slick:
