I'm guessing you don't like rap?

If you were pointing to how very polished and talented Eminem is as a rapper then welcome to the 1990s? I dont really see anything else going on here...

Basically any radio station named "The Eagle" or "The Wolf" or "The [Insert Mammal of Choice]."

Theres conservative artists of all kinds and theres liberal artists of all kinds. Yes there seems to be a higher proportion of liberal arists in modern pop culture; but that is simply reflective that liberal views are generally more popular in society on the whole (rightly or wrongly).

Instead of making some narcissistic post that attempts to make it seem like something revolutionary is going on, why dont you make a post attempting to honestly and genuinely celebrate conservative artists?

Eminem is a great rapper!

And when your people ask, 'Why did the LORD our God do all this to us?' you must reply, 'You rejected him (as did your fathers and their fathers) and gave yourselves to foreign gods in your own land. Now you will serve foreigners in a land that is not your own.

Never been the type to bend or budge
The wrong button to push, no friend of Bush
I'm the center piece, you're a Maltese
I'm a pitbull off his leash, all this peace talk can cease
All these people I had to leave in limbo
I'm back now, I've come to release this info
I'll be brief and let me just keep shit simple
Can a bitch don't want no beef with Slim
No! Not even on my radar
So won't you please jump off my dick, lay off and stay off
And follow me as I put these crayons to chaos

Let your hair down to the track, yeah kick on back
The Boogiemonster of rap, yeah the man's back
With a plan to ambush this Bush administration
Mush the Senate's face in, push this generation
Of kids to stand and fight for the right to say somethin
You might not like, this white hot light
That I'm under, no wonder I look so sunburnt
Oh no I won't leave no stone unturned
Oh no I won't leave, won't go nowhere
Do si do, oh yo ho, hello there

Oh yeah, don't think I won't go there
Go to Beirut and do a show there
Yeah you laugh till your motherfuckin' ass gets drafted
While you're at band camp thinkin' the crap can't happen
'Til you f*ck around, get an anthrax napkin
Inside a package wrapped in Saran Wrap wrappin'
Open the plastic and then you stand back gaspin'
Fuckin' assassins, hijackin' Amtraks, crashin'
All this terror, America demands action
Next thing you know, you've got Uncle Sam's ass askin'
To join the army or what you'll do for their navy

You just a baby, gettin' recruited at eighteen
You're on a plane now, eatin their food and their baked beans
I'm twenty-eight, they gon'
Take you 'fore they take me
Crazy insane, or insane crazy?
When I say Hussein, you say Shady

My views ain't changed, still inhumane, wait
Arraigned two days late, the date's today, hang me

Nothin' moves me more than a groove that soothes me
Nothin' soothes me more than a groove that boosts me
Nothin' boosts me more, or suits me beautifully
There's nothin' you can do to me, stab me shoot me
Psychotic hypnotic product, I got it the antibiotic
Ain't nobody hotter and so on and yada yada
God I talk a lotta hum de lay de la la
Oochie walla walla, um di da dah da dah but you gotta gotta
Keep movin, there's more music to make

Keep makin new shit, produce hits to break
The monotony, what's gotten into me?
Drugs, rock, and Hennessey, thug like I'm 'Pac on my enemies
On your knees, got you under siege
Somebody you would give a lung to be
Hungry, like a fuckin' younger me
f*ck the fee, I can get you jumped for free
Yeah buddy, laugh it's funny, I have the money
To have you killed by somebody who has nothing
I'm past bluffing, pass the KY
Let's get ready for some intense, serious ass fucking!

First, mind dropping some names on the Conservative side per 'artists of all kinds'? Let's leave out music if you don't mind, but go ahead include it if you really want to. Off the top of your head would be bestest. If you have to internetz for your answer, that won't do much justice for your premise

Without the internet I don't have any to give you because I don't pay attention to pop music all that much. Only Kid Rock really stands out, but he is a libertarian repub so that may or may not count with you. But Country and Western is hardly an unpopular music genre and that is predominantly of a conservative bent.

To be honest when I think of artists and their conservative/liberal status I mostly think "I don't know" because, as I mentioned they don't tend to address the topic all that often. Sure artist like Macklemore and others have been vocal about some liberal things but on the whole it doesn't seem to matter to me. Apparently Alice Cooper is a conservative though (I did google at the end there ).
