Is it Acceptable to Listen to the Music of Questionable Artists?
Let's take Chris Brown as an example. He is a proven abuser with a considerable following. Should people stop listening to and buying his music so as to not support him in any way, as they might consider him a bad person? Or is it possible to like and enjoy his music without caring about him as a person?
Yes, if I like their music

I personally think that until the questionable things or subjects aren't reflected in the song/music it is absolutely fine to listen to their music. Also, questionable is an objective word that can have different meanings if you ask different people. Although there is a norm for behavior in society, any artist can be portrayed as questionable. You may think that a questionable artist is someone with long hair that plays guitar and smokes, you can think of someone that is a book worm and that doesn't speak to anyone, it could be someone that likes to go into museums, we could think of a person that thinks that he can fly or a person that likes to watch the flames in a fire pit. That said, what does questionable even signify/symbolize. Side: Yes, if I like their music
