Why and how?
I tried listening to his shyt and son he's nyquil status
No bars,no charisma, nothing.. just a corny nikka rapping on weird beats
He's basura breh
This. I remember listening to his first album for the first time around the time it came out around my peoples and my brother and we had to turn it off.
actually my homie demanded that we stopped before we got to the third track. We were heading to the west Indian day parade on a hot sunny day and he was getting depressed hearing that shyt
I also think its ironic that he talks about suicide awareness and prevention when in reality, listening to his musical content... I would say that him opening up about his problems actually DOES inspire other people to open up about their issues. That's a positive for him BUT the flip side of that is hes not really promoting the other side of it either. It's like he's glorifying or romanticizing that depression/escapism with drugs shyt. Speaking as someone who has issues, I'm not trying to be down in the dumps ALL the time. Hell, I'm trying to get well. Cant be all gloom and doom. It's good to express pain but if that's all hes gonna say and promote unhealthy behaviors such as smoking weed all day as a form of escapism and nothing else, then THATS BAD. In fact, that shyt WILL make someone who's depressed far worse or even push them to commit that. This is why pushing therapy or intervention is just as important. Romanticizing mental illness isnt cool and NEVER will be. It's okay to stop the stigma of having mental illness or talking about it but not to the point where we are romanticizing or making that shyt to be cool.
Personally, I think that talk about depression and use that excuse to be a junkie in the club singing on records is just as toxic as the gangster shyt that hes complaining about. How many of these emo rappers are dying from drug overdoses?
This is why I'm just really questioning this X shyt now. Even as a black gay man myself, I'm looking at this shyt sideways like the timing cudi did that shyt at the social climate which theres a lot of agents and operatives out here pushing agendas unfortunately behind real social issues affecting people such as LGBTQ. shyt is bad. The agents done infiltrated and are weaponizing social issues against each other and people are falling for the bait. We have to STOP the agents that are within these communities that work for the ops doing their dirty work. They ARE the enemy.
