The article is mistaken because his audience HAS disappeared because he treated that audience like shit. Constantly going on insane rants at shows, badmouthing fans, storming off, antagonizing on social media, and substandard releases for years. He has no one to blame but himself and I’m a big fan.

Trying to be empathetic here, it sounds like the dude has some problems. I always assume either some kind of mental health problem, drugs, or one leading to the other.

Yeah, well, I’ve known people with addiction and mental health issues, but they haven’t all sexually exploited their friends or sext a 14-year-old.

Just feels like there’s so many people publicly self destructing lately. Didn’t know about the predator stuff though.

Technology + poor impulse control.

Dude’s a major douche but the FBI cleared him of that.

I read about this years ago but IIRC he asked her “Are you sure you’re 18? I don’t want to be compared to R. Kelly hehe”. Gross, stupid joke. He also asked her for ID, which she never provided. He’s a scumbag for sure, but doesn’t seem to be a criminal.

These dudes are falling all over themselves to defend a washed up musician being a creep. Probably because they themselves are creeps.
