Azizi (the GUEST was indeed me) - I have every respect for the artistry and talent of Billie Holiday, as I hope I made clear. And I also have great respect for those singers and musicians who, in their lives, have stood up and been counted as anti-racist, etc. - people such as BH, Tony Bennett, Dave Brubeck and many others.

I have records by Brubeck and none by Billie Holiday or Tony Bennett. This merely illustrates that I don't care for the musical output of these people - and I'm not applying this judgement to the people themselves.

The wider question revolves around whether you admire/hate an artist for the people they are, rather than just the artistic output. Caravaggio was, reputedly, a monster in many aspects of his life. Do I take this into consideration when looking at his art? My gut instinct is to admire his art, which I think is marvellous. Others may think differently.
