> The unfortunate reality is that a lot of so-called artists have absolutely nothing to say. Well 90% of everything is crap. That said, I don't think the mark of quality is whether the artist have "something to say". What does that even mean? Most of art throughout history rehashes the same themes. The differentiator is not what they say but how they say it. Consider that at one point blues and jazz was not considered "real music" by critics, and the same for rock'n'roll. Now people are studying these genres and writing academic papers. Does that mean they are all easily fooled dipshits?
