    Good for him. Yeah the last video I saw of him was him trying to break back into his house after he got kicked out, dude was clearly drunk off his rocker. I think he said he was drunk pretty much 24/7 at that point in his life.

        I hope he gets clean and all, but I have heard rumors he’s a total piece of shit, or was. I actually have some fam living close to him in PA, apparently there’s all sorts of local rumors about crap he’s done. Like apparently he punched a kid in 7/11 for taking too long a the cash register.

          Given his upbringing and age and friend group and worldview when he got internationally famous, I’d say it’s not surprising he’d turn out that way. I’m sure that whole group thought they were invincible and superior to others. Not to excuse the disgusting behavior though, but it helps to explain it. Also explains how he found himself in the grips of addiction, probably.

          But yeah, I hope he can grow and learn and be better.
