I think the beauty in Hoziers music is his desire to preach to power, he really tries and succeeds at Nina Simone's sentiment of "the duty of an artist". Whether it be from the suppression of Natives as a whole, or the hindrance of expression in Moscow, to the ongoing fight for freedom in Hong Kong, this man wants you to know about it, and will preach against it.

Lyrics:
At Standing Rock the Jackboot Jump
You'd swear was all the rage
Whether tearing up old treaties
Or just tearing up the place
It's always corporate infrastructure
Over the structure of your face
In Moscow the Jackboot show
Has so much in store
For any silly student
Who doesn't wanna learn the score
So the Moscow Jackboot Ballet
Finds some scared young dancing floor
In Hong Kong it won't be long
'Til they have to fall in line
For the long hand of Beijing
Stretching south a thousand miles
Where they rock the Jackboot Jump there
Like that shit's going out of style
All around the world
You'd think that things were looking rough
But the jackboot only jumps down
On people standing up
So you know good things are happening
When the jackboot needs to jump

the thing that makes hozier so good is the fact that you can tell heâs clearly enjoying making music, heâs not doing it for money, and furthermore he calls out the privileges and uses his platform for good. i donât know many other artists who openly take every pride flag in their shows or call out the church or extreme right agendas.
