I guess you should ask yourself whether an artist should be allowed to have an ego when their music is actuslly good. I'd say they should be allowed to. Artists spend sometimes years perfecting their craft. They should absolutely be allowed to showcase that through their own ego. I will agree that some artists go overboard (Kanye) but that's part of the niche. I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing unless an artist is blatantly insulting other artists for not being them.

You have people that don't make great music and they still stroke their ego. Is there a line of which an artist can cross where it becomes too much?

But that's you mixing their personal life with their music which imo is a big no no. You could be listening to someone that has done some bad time, but that doesn't automatically make their music bad. Same goes for drug addicts, alcoholics etc. I learned that you cant intertwine the two. You'll never win.

Most artists nowadays, especially trap artists, don't claim to be poets or the best lyricalists. I honestly think that people need to get over themselves because we aren't in the 80s or 90s anymore, there's a new generation and this **** we hear today is what they want. The lyrical music you had in the 80s and 90s is still there and it's not gone- just harder to find.
