many rock stars learned music to get attention from teenage girls. which is okay at first, because they were teenage boys. the problem is when they become adults and don't grow out of it, and fame+money makes it very easy for them to be predators. the entire music industry is designed to facilitate this behavior.
rock music has fallen out of the mainstream but we still see this with a lot of famous rappers for example (Diddy, Drake, etc)
I am not even that big of a fan of the Beatles (especially not John Lennon and his domestic violence enjoying) but as far as I know they didn't actually creep on any of their many, many teenage fans. Maybe I'm wrong there but it made me hope there was like one band I could remember the name of from the "classic rock" era that didn't have creeps in it.
Tbf they get their money for nothing and their chicks for free
