    From a different perspective, this kid might have been the victim of a terrible upbringing and a inevitable fate.

    But yeah beating your pregnant wife is a s--- thing to do. I think it's bad to judge people without a full understanding of their circumstances, but this guy probably had it coming after f---ing with the wrong set of guys. And from a realist's perspective you don't get to live like a piece of s--- and expect a long healthy life.

    I don't know anything about ---'s circumstances, but it's pretty clear he suffered from some kind of untreated disorder not to mention what other conditions contributed to what he became.

    Still, that might contextualize his actions, but it doesn't excuse them.

    No ofc not he's a piece a s--- that realistically, society was probably better off without. But im saying even the worst pieces of s--- on earth have motivations and experiences that drive them to do certain things. Have you been in the same situation, can you guarantee you'd have turned out any better?


    If you lived in nazi germany, you'd have probably been a nazi.

    Only like 10% of the country were part of the Nazi party, so no.

    Also, I live in the US where we're currently ethnically cleansing Hispanics and locking children in cages so you don't need to reach for a comparison like that. Oh, and we've also commuted innumerable war crimes and destabilized half the governments on the planet. I'm part of a pretty s-----y society atm.

    its honestly pretty embarrassing to even admit i was like this at a time but i was one of those "real rap" / "f--- mumble rap" fa----s who never ventured into new artists, but in late 2016 --- singlehandedly changed my opinion and opened me up to new s--- because i was in the worst place of my life at the time and i ended up stumbling upon a 30 min sad xxxtentacion mix on youtube, it was so new to me sonically and lyrically but i could relate with everything he was saying and it really made a change because i ended up not killing myself that winter (even after having my suicide note done and written)

    i dont wanna hear any s---, this dude helped so many people (way more than he hurt) and ill cherish that sad mix and his last two albums for the rest of my life, this has also inspired me to get off my a--- and accomplish my dreams, he was a few months younger than me and i admire how much work he was able to put in at such a young age

    yeah but what im saying is that the people who are doing these s--- things arent much different to you personally.
    less different that you think.

    You just happened to have had a more "enlightened" life experience than they have. So you should keep that in mind when doling out judgements.

    He thought she was pregnant which is just as bad
    David Bowie is a shitbag too and I have no condolences for his death.

    bs, his music gave hope to thousands of young people with depression, in no way is the world better with out him.

    I hope the people spewing up this s--- about his allegations feel the same way about other rappers with domestic violence in their past e.g. Dr dre, Nas etc

    Yo this is what rap is supposed to be about bro. Keep fighting your fight man. If X helped you then that's one more person that he can help with his music and that influence will live on.

    I don't know you, I've never spoken to you, I know nothing about you or your struggles, but I know that life is hard through my own experiences. I'm not as young as you, but I've been in dark places myself and came out the other side. Keep your head up young G.

    And back to ---. I was intrigued my him, and I thought he had a degree of talent. I never let media bs get in the way of my own personal judgments so I was always willing to put the bad press to one side, and take him at face value. He was clealy a troubled dude, but definitely had talent, seemed to have good intentions deep down.

    This one shook me a lil bit tbh. No disrespect to peep n what not but I didn't listen to his s---, so I wasn't familiar with him when he passed. This s--- is f---ing sad. 20 years old. d---.

    Career cut way way too short. This bs needs to stop man. When are Murica gon learn??? RIP --- my young dude. Rest up.

    I never insisted on obscuring it at all, that was never the arguement? I dont have a problem with discussing his down sides its just that you insist on disrespecting him only a few hours after death. Its just f---ing weird to me, kids dead, he lost. I never will understand people that find enjoyment in berating people who just died. I understand making jokes about it more so than the people that come off generally angry at a dead man lol. I mean would you be saying all this if he had that court case and turns out they found him as not guilty, and then he died.
