I used to have this ”guilty” feeling listening to non-alternative music when I was younger but now that I’m more grown up I realize it’s all just music. Every track you listen to doesn’t have to have a profound meaning and significance to you or have deep lyrics, it can just be a song you like. I still listen to songs by artists I dislike, either for something they have done/are doing or for differing opinions, because it’s just music.
