Don't confuse the lyrics and message with taste. "Girls Girls Girls" isn't exactly Bob Dillon. I agree. But as far as their voices, are good. ABBA also doesn't set out in every song to make you think about world peace and the Higgs Boson particle, but they also have voices, and they did well.
But as far as this one particular song "No Lives Matter" it is as deep as Dillon, and extremely relevant today. I like it because it reminds me of "Blackened" by Metallica and the message about how humans are destroying the planet. But with this song, his message is about how blacks and whites are being played by wealth.
Just say you are not into Ice T. I get it. But to claim he sucks is bullshit.
I also know lots of rock/metal fans who think all country music sucks. I disagree. I am not into country, but like rap, I have found a few songs I like.
And if you must know, I never liked Bob Dylan's voice. But I have long since accepted that his lyrics were of the time and socially aware.
