For example, I personally can’t listen to Guns and Roses without immediately thinking “that Axl sure is an asshole”, and that sours the entire experience.

To an extent I can, like Axl is a complicated one given his mental health issues. Nothing excuses his behaviour but he seems to have grown as a person and managed to somewhat control his shittier side.
But there’s definitely a line. I can’t really enjoy rammstein or die antwoord anymore
What happened with Rammstein and Die Antwoord?
Turns out Lindemann is quite rapey, and Die Antwoord had this whole (alleged) sex slavery thing with an Australian rapper.
Seems often they’re not just making up their lyrics after all but singing from experience
Die antwoord also adopted, abused and abandoned an albino African child, Tokkie, who spoke out a few years ago. They’re truly awful and Tokkie’s documentary is worth watching.
Also Marilyn Manson has been evicted from my music library for sexual abuse. I have no interest in supporting known exploiters, and I can’t listen to their music without thinking about how awful they are as people. No regrets, there’s plenty more musicians out there worth my time.
