In this thought-provoking episode, Niall asks a powerful and controversial question: Should we still listen to the music of artists accused or convicted of serious crimes — especially against children?
From R. Kelly to Gary Glitter, Michael Jackson to others, their work has left an undeniable mark on pop culture — but should their songs still be played on the radio? And what about movie stars accused of similar crimes — should they be blacklisted from future roles and wiped from the screen?
Can we — or should we — separate the art from the artist?
Or does continuing to enjoy their work make us complicit in ignoring their actions?
Listeners call in to weigh both sides:
📞 "I grew up with Michael Jackson — his music shaped my childhood. I can’t just erase that because of allegations."
📞 "If we support the music, we support the artist — and that sends the wrong message."
📞 "Where do we draw the line? Should we ban every artist with a dark past?"
Tune in for a heated, honest, and emotional conversation that tackles morality, memory, and the complex legacy of fame.
