Nevermind I found a link myself using GOOGLE: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/06/a...-back-from-the-wilderness.html?pagewanted=all

" As part of the Coral Reef curriculum he also performed community service, spending time working at Samoa Victim Support Group, a center for survivors of sexual abuse, including children.

“That was a pivotal moment,” he said one afternoon at Bristol Farms, a supermarket near his manager’s office. One of the things Earl Sweatshirt had been prized for as a rapper was his extreme imagery, bordering on vile. “You can detach imagery from words,” he said, adding that he “never actually pictured” the things he rapped about. (“Lyrics About Rape, Coke, And Couches Will Be Blaring In Your Ears,” was how “Earl,” the album, was advertised on Odd Future’s Tumblr when it was released in March 2010.)

By the time he began working at the center, “I had already come to the conclusion that I was done talking about” that sort of subject matter, he said, but coming face to face with young people who had suffered in that way was overwhelming. “There’s nothing that you can — there’s no — you can’t evade the — there’s no defense for like — if you have any ounce of humanity,” he said, the feeling swallowing the words. "

Damn, mad respect sounds like he's grown up for real

I guess you were one of the dudes Earl was talking about.

Domo, Mike G, Frank were never horrorcore. Hodgy was horrorcore at times but you could tell that was never really his lane

im saying. i like his old stuff moderately but i do think the kid has a lot of talent and potential. I dont care about horror core or not I just want a solid album. a lot of times when artists TRY to change their sound or appeal they fall off quickly, so I am hoping he can actually put out something thats dope.

Yup.

Earl's stuff before OF wasn't horrorcore and the stuff he's done since Earl hasn't been horrorcore.

Even Tyler's toned it down a bunch.
