I know I've always said "it's about the music," but sometimes it really shouldn't be. That fucker doesn't need or deserve any idolatry or attention. He needs to take a goddamn break, grow up, and figure out whether he wants to be a positive or negative force in the world before I'm going to entertain the idea of thinking of him as an artist.
Kid's famous in part because of his criminal background. It's a dangerous feedback loop I have no intention of encouraging.

I think it's mainly Meaghan Garvey's unprofessional writing in general that triggers me, but I completely understand why you won't even entertain the idea of listening to him.
He is far from a good artist, either way. His 20 minute "album" was rushed, redundant and gimmicky.
