Normies and cheugys, the (new) Big Four, and the worst people to happen to music...EVER. We went over to Instagram and Twitter to ask our listeners (that's you lot!) to anonymously share your most controversial feminist and music-based opinions with us. And this week, we've reacted.

How have streaming platforms affected artists incomes? This week, we are joined by Mike and Evelyn of Clean Cut Kid who share their insights on releasing music on streaming platforms versus exclusively physical copies. We discuss the different ways of listening to albums, creative ways of releasing albums and how saturated the music industry really is. Mike and Evelyn give their fascinating perspective on the music industry from the inside - you won’t want to miss this one.

What’s the difference between being sexual and being sexualised? This week, we discuss just that. We provide modern day examples of musicians who we think are sexualised, those who choose to be sexual, and theorise which genders we think are most objectified in the media.

How do you define a “selling out” and is it really as bad as people may perceive? In this week’s episode we talk about what we think “selling out” is and why we think there is a right and wrong way to go about it. You’ll hear our thoughts of artists who have allegedly “sold out” and the reasons why we think we should look at rephrasing or reframing the idea of selling out.

In this week’s episode we’re lightening the mood a little with a feminist version of the ever-popular “shag, marry, kill?” We have no intention to objectify people, so instead we ask each other out of the 3 options provided who we would trust to hold our drink, whose shoulders we would sit on and who we would avoid at a gig. Let us know if you’ve got any you’d like to put forward!

What is gatekeeping in music and have you ever done it OR been subjected to it? In this week’s episode we talk about what we think gatekeeping is and why we think people do it. You’ll hear our experiences of when we have (unfortunately gate kept) and (more unfortunately) gate kept other people. We also talk about how we perceive those who gatekeep and whether we think any positives can be taken from it. You won’t want to miss this one!

Should you separate the art from the artist? In this week’s episode, we talk about just that. We discuss whether the severity of the accusation or the crime makes a difference to who we listen to, whether there are any musicians we should stop giving the time of day entirely, and confess which questionable artists we still put on a private Spotify session. Check it out.
