The heightened graphic sexuality of his oeuvre feeds suspicions that the allegations, even if they can't be proved, have weight, which makes it very hard for some listeners to hear 's music without thinking of the scandals.
Of course, a whirlwind of similar charges, including an annulled marriage to the teenage, doesn't exactly help matters either, nor does his music. If the child pornography allegations leveled against him weren't so heinous (not to mention detailed and allegedly supported by videotapes), and if he weren't so quick to paint himself as a martyr - highlighted by, but not limited to, him bizarrely empathizing with Osama Bin Laden in a 2003 interview with Blender Magazine - it might be easier to ignore his trials and tribulations and focus on the art. And, when it comes down to it, doesn't really want you to forget those scandals either.
