Wasn't expecting such a thought provoking video and truly amazing psychological analysis. Great video man.

Seriously, I am so freaking glad you are part of my generation. I agree with every word you said, and I would get the same responses at cookouts growing up. People need to hear this, and I'm glad you spoke up.

I realized this with Doja cat. If you’re a horrible person, as long as you can compensate for your negative traits. People will tolerate you, or overlook your bad traits. As long as you make good music, bring in loads of money, tangible goods, be attractive or simply not treat certain people horribly. You’ll be good!

Your “life of a narcissist” bit is a goddddamn bar. Trying to mud bath dye jeans but keep coming back to comment on your dropped gems. Adore this find of a channel, holy smokes. 19:57

The wealthy have put decades into brainwashing us peasants into thinking they are smarter, better, and more noble than us. They, obviously, are not.

This is so important to talk about. I love how you acknowledge your own internal dissonance. I think this makes it hard to navigate between enjoying the art vs the artist. With more knowledge it makes it harder to differentiate between morality

They all said at some point they sold their soul to the devil. And everyone thinks it’s a metaphor. It’s not.

X might've had his dark side but to me I feel he was truly changing for the better. Hence I still go back sometimes and play his music. Still my favorite musician to this day👑

Ultimately you should never idolize ANYONE we are all just human at the end of the day. No one is superior than another. No one is purely good or purely bad most people have done good things and bad things all be it done peoples bad deeds are a lot worse than others.

Terry crews is a good example of this, he learned to except the past, but never let it control his future
