John Lennon beat his wife

Music that isn't honest, emotionally.

Emotionally dishonest rock is a form of experimental rock[3] characterized by the influence and use of instruments commonly associated with rock music, but using rhythms and "guitars as facilitators of timbre and textures" not traditionally found in rock. Emotionally dishonest bands are often instrumental.[4][5][3] Although firmly rooted in the indie or underground scene of the 1980s and early 1990s, emotionally dishonest rock's style often bears little resemblance musically to that of contemporary indie rock.[5][3]

Prominent emotionally dishonest groups include Sigur Rós, Explosions in the Sky, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Stereolab, Mogwai, Disco Inferno, and Tortoise, with individual styles between groups differing widely despite being centered on guitars and drums. As such, the term has been the subject of controversy from listeners and artists alike.[6]

How is that emotionally dishonest?

he wrote a song about imagining world peace

He never beta his wife Yoko Ono though, so that's still not emotionally dishonest.

it means new age music is bad

true but he was just generally an asshole

How so?

Probably music that's been specifically made to virtue signal and pander when the artist in question displays none of the qualities being shown.

It's when an artist uses very basic and expected chord progressions in order to emulate a certain emotion, which of course fails everytime to anyone who isn't easily blinded by such pitiful tricks. It's very common in most Sup Forumscore albums, and pop music in general.

>emulate
>tricks
How do you know they weren't being genuine though?

learn how to google you dumb cunt

Not an argument. Try again

Its a forced shitpost started by a pretentious underage pseudo that watched a snippet of a David foster Wallace interview. It doesnt mean anything.

Dude, you don't have to fight for Lennon's honor.

mark chapman was obsessed with him and he still shot him

Pretentious Bullshit. Trying to convey something that hasn't even been felt by the Artist.

...

Nothing. It's meaningless and subjective term.

It's either they're being dishonest, or they're being immature. Benefit of the doubt
