Ask the Tropers:
resolved Questionable comment Music
I found this entry on Irony.Music:
- Luther Vandross is known for singing some of the most well-known R&B love songs of the 1980s and 1990s. He himself, however, never married, never had children, and never even had any known romantic relationships with women (it's possible he could have been gay).
The part in bold seems to be speculation on a real-life person's personal life. Is this the kind of thing that's allowed?
resolved Memetic Mutation misuse? Music
Found this on YMMV/Deftones:
- Memetic Mutation: Stephen revealing himself to be a believer in several conspiracies
, including the flat Earth theory, anti-vax and COVID-19 denial, was immediately met with widespread scorn from the fandom along with several memes referencing songs such as "Hole in the Earth".
This is already in need of a tweak of some kind since that Vimeo link is dead, but I'm not even sure it's an example of Memetic Mutation - it's more focused on memes made in response to a scenario rather than the scenario itself becoming a meme.

cryptic-immortal has been editing the Music.Muse page and its subpages recently, and many of their edits... Concern me. For example...
I have sent notifers to them.
