I’m a freshman who recently started exploring Adorno and his writings on mass culture and music. I think he makes some compelling points, and I partially agree with him. I don’t use TikTok myself, but while reflecting on his ideas, I realized that TikTok meme music could serve as a fascinating example of ‘popular music’ in his terms. Although music isn’t a central focus of your article, I found your thoughts could be connected to it in this context. That’s how I came across your article, which I found incredibly insightful. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and research.
