Crazy how these things play out sometimes. We all know...or got that unc/auntie who been using drugs, smoking fugs and drinking they’re entire lives and outlive everybody.
Far too common we see this in music. He was just shy of the “27 club”. That “sex, drugs and rock and roll” life can take a toll.
Health is wealth. Them substances a beast smh. Heard he was going through it. Depression too real. Really sucks for Mac Miller. Remembered he was on TBC like a year ago and he seemed to be getting it together.
Agree w/everything you said. The Ariana / Pete Davidson thing probably was really tough.
I feel like what you mentioned, the "Sex, drugs, and rock and roll" life which has always been around, has made a huge mark on my Hip-Hop generation.
Hip-Hop is the new rock and roll, and these young guys obsession w/nostaliga and the idealized rock and roll image, has guys diving into drug use to recreate the hip-hop version of the rock and roll aesthetic and they get hooked in the process.
That's not to say that they aren't going through things, because I'm sure they are, but the image is a part of it for sure.
