I was hoping to express something a bit different than a direct rebuff of purchased “taste“ via wealth, but, yeah...
The song isn't quite that reductionist. Not to get too far a field into non John Mayer musicians, but the song gets to a bit more than just wealth/taste. I didn't want to quote the whole song but maybe picking the snippet I did left out too much context.
"Singer-songwriter" is about a lot of different people in the indie world who have a secret leg up but would never want you to know. That said, I know many of those people and some of them are awesome, personally or artistically. That's the difficult truth.
This was closer to what resonated from your post and made me think of the song. Maybe I'm factually wrong about what you were trying to convey but there is no objective reality and my interpretation is as valid as any.
