I feel global political oppression or global wars usually produce great music but Macklemore might be the peak.

Nothing against him, some of his songs are good, but I expected real rage inducing stuff with everything going on. Or is this just the state of music as a whole?

OP wasn't asking about classics, was asking about protest music

    Fred Durst is and has always been a boot sucking poser. He has never protested anything beyond a groupie telling him "no."

    In all fairness, back in the day it was limp Bizkit that got me into rock and the much better stuff. Not listening to them anymore (maybe every now and then something from their very first album) but still, without LB I would never gotten into rock the way I'm today
