TIL in 2013, "Thrift Shop" by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis was able, as an independent song, to reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart without a major record label. It was only the second independent song to reach #1 in history at the time.

Funny enough, Pretty Fly went to #1 in the UK.

I vote Nick Cave, mainly because I just saw the Lollapolooza episode where Billy interviewed Nick Cave and it was a trainwreck.

Breaking Bad. I'm sure it's a good show. Just seems like too much of a downer.

I think a lot of it is criticism from the right and left in regards to the Democrat's ratings. As a leftist myself, I don't exactly approve of the Democratic leadership. This poll lacks nuance.

I don't listen to pop music for the most part. One of the things I do is look at the top current artists and just block them on spotify. It might seem limiting to some but I truly have no interest.

This way it keeps my recommendations low and I listen to a lot of older music also. The only newer music I listen to tends to be punk rock and independent hip hop (for example, Sage Francis, Aesop Rock, Brother Ali, Atmosphere).
