Working class this, working class that... spare me.all being "working class" proves is that your parents were stupid. so chances are you are too. I'm sick and tired of this notion that if you aren't a poor loser, you can't be creative.There are hundreds, if not thousands of musicians from well-to-do, comfortable backgrounds, often with trust funds. Just because their parents/grandparents or whatever made a bunch of money doesn't mean their music is bad. I'd go as far to say that chances are, it's better than working class music. These artists have the genetics of people who are capable of greatness, capable of thriving, of building something noteworthy. Be it a real estate empire or a career as a punk or indie musician.

>>127845066Rich people have never suffered or faced challenges so they have no insight into the human condition.
>>127845128John Lennon didn't have money growing up, his uncle did
>>127845046Working class is when you don't need no instructions to know how to rock
no one is saying rich people can't make great art, but its a fact that all the best music came from working class artists
