Would you say modern music has any political effects nowadays, as compared to 50 years ago with protest songs? Personally I'd say no, but I'm curious as to your opinions.

I read somewhere that "U a Stupid Ho" is what inspired the Supreme Court to support Obamacare.

I don't think modern music has any political footing whatsoever because the creators don't want it to. The people who write Justin Bieber's and Katy Perry's and Nicki Minaj's music aren't aiming for political shitstorms surrounding their music. They're going for relationships, women and sex in the lyrics and music that drunk college girls and pre pubescent females will like.

Yes of course it does, though there is a more subtle message now. With protest songs there was a largely anti war message and anti government message as well, now the messages are broader, eg "no more poverty" "quit fighting" "feed the children"
ect.

I have to disagree. The music that contains messages now is just cast out of the limelight.
