It was created for a reason and to express something; there is purpose behind the creation. I don't mean necessarily a message conveyed by lyrics. If the force that drove the artist is conveyable to an audience, the message is there.

There was some... disgust that entered the post, that one could think that art is meaningless. I was coming back to address that. If there is nothing driving the artist to produce it, it is without purpose, and therefor without value.
