Damn. Remember that black DJ from the Ellen Degeneres show? He killed himself.

Just goes to show you never know what's really going on behind closed doors. I only know the personality I seen on TV, but if he was putting on an act on TV then he was a great actor. Seemed like a genuinely happy dude.

RIP to Twitch.

This makes no sense.


Just......why?​

 

[ThaBronxBully]

I'm gonna be honest with y'all, I used to watch Ellen as background noice working from home and he always seemed like he was putting on a happy vibe to please people. No one is always that happy, gleeful and go with the flow all the time. So while this is shocking to me it's not based on how he always seemed to be "on" all the time. Eventually that fakeness eats away at the person constantly putting on a front. Again, RIP to him.

I Know Im Looking At It With Different Eyes Now In Hindsight After What Happened But His Happy Dancing Family Posts On IG Definitely Seem Forced

Granted It Looks Like Alot Of Them Are PAID Advertisements So They Kind Of ARE Forced

His wife must have had some inkling that he was capable of this, because why else would she be frantic? This tells me he'd probably been suffering for a while

I used to think suicide was selfish, but somebody explained to me that often, the person thinks killing themselves is better for the people around them, like easing their burden. Which is sad AF if you think about it.

Stop blaming the Ellen show. Breh was on there since 2014 and probably really enjoyed his opportunity.

Kind of insensitive

 

[pete clemenza]

Damn this is sad. RIP

 

[Max Power]

Hollywood and showbiz is an evil place.

 

[Vic Damone. Jr]

damn RIP. Him dancing with Snoop was dope to see when I found the video for the first time


Starts at 2:40

Take care of yourselves y’all

People blaming Ellen show for why he became suicidal but I wouldn't be surprised if the show was what kept him sane and by it coming to an end this may have impacted him financially and mentally for the worst.

He threw up the peace sign in his last video.

It's usually those ones, remember robin williams?

Robin had a severe neurological disease. Completely different. And all of Robins kids were already adults when he died

 

[SNG]

Damn he seemed like he a real good positive dude. Sometimes it be the most positive people that be having the most demons lowkey.

On one hand, he works on Ellen and it’s an emotional estrogen filled environment everyday…on the other end he’s a family man doing all that family things. ‘Happy wife happy life’ is inherently toxic bc what you feel doesn’t matter. Him doing this after a wedding anniversary sadly is not a coincidence

Every man with a modern woman knows you kinda lose yourself, doin stuff for IG, taking pics, being extroverted, etc . Multiply that by 10 if you got kids. Maybe multiple more being on the show. It’s a high level of sacrifice and maybe that got to him. Just trying to make sense of it

Let’s not turn this into a women blaming post.

I have a friend who is like a Twitch type dude (him and wife and kids always smiling, he’s mad successful in the political field) and his wife commited suicide.

Always smiling always positive, yes they are human and humans have issues but it’s been 2 years and I still can’t believe it, plus they had a young daughter….

It’s a brain issue, and someone who deals with this told me that eveyone has a problem, and relapses, but her problem is that if she relapses one time she is gone forever, as the porn addict or drinker or drug addict etc can live to see another day..and she said she never knows when that day will come, because there is no rhyme or reason to when it hits her…

Mind you she is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in real life. No cap.

 

[Chip Skylark]

Dude legit seemed like a good guy. I thought his story about how he worked hard as a dancer from Alabama to one of the most successful TV shows on television was dope

RIP it’s a lot of young men committing suicide. Smh

 

[MostReal]

suicided probably

 

[Mordith]

Brother went to hotel and shot himself.
Leaves behind 3 children and wife

I’ve no kids but isn’t that usually what keeps most people going? For the kids?

I don't give a fukk what anybody says, you have to be an incredible selfish piece of shyt to put your family through this.
