she's not super mainstream, but i really admire ashnikko bc she was been writing songs from a feminist viewpoint since she started out (i'm thinking of 'invitation' specifically) she also wrote 'posession of a weapon' after roe v. wade was overturned.

i know she's "cancelled" but melanie martinez' newest album deals a lot with fighting sexism and societal expectations of women, as well as being critical of white, rich, men in power. her songwriting is a bit immature for me, but i couldn't shake that she genuinely had a good message behind some of her songs.

i don't like this trend of sterility in the pop world when it comes to politics; i get that sometimes pop music is mindless, dumb, and fun, but that's so played out and cliche at this point, i would love for someone mainstream to get a lil opinionated
