Also, if I could say one last thing about the music I did for my recent story. (I know it’s silly, but TBH, I’m feeling a bit vulnerable about it and just wanted to get something off my chest). The songs I wrote were deliberately puerile and offensive. I was trying to write songs “in character” and make sure every song would be considered “illegal” within the DJ King universe. But, I’m actually not like that IRL (puerile and offensive).
Also, at the risk of getting political I do have a VERY strong belief in the importance of artistic freedom of expression. Short of explicitly inciting violence (which I’m obviously against), I believe artists should be left alone to say whatever the hell they want. And, I do think there has been a political shift recently which may lead to freedom of artistic expression to come under attack (again). So, I suppose my story and songs reflect this concern too.
