Most rock personalities subdue that or choose not to explore it.

The politician beat up the reporter.

Because it's almost exclusively about the people. We've been operating this way for a while.

Konrad LorenzI don't know if you've ever seen this film called Elite Squad, which, actually Wagner [Moura] is the one narrating that.
