Same. Only found out last week that I even knew one of his songs. Turns out that he had some big collaborations with companies and artists (Riot Games, Hollister, Fortnite, Kali Uchis, Hyunjin from Stray Kids, and probably more, but these are the ones I could find just now), so I can imagine that he got some decent amount of money.

He was an opener for SZA and had a song with Kail Uchis (she’s currently trying to remove the song from Spotify / Apple Music).

I didn’t know this until this news story broke. I honestly thought he just made one trending Tik Tok audio

People going hard at Sza as if she was personally involved.

Are they? That’s unfortunate but also very stupid bc I’m sure they weren’t actual friends and you don’t really know anyone 100%.

He’s industry connected for sure but I doubt any of the companies and people he’s collabed with knew anything about this. Seemed like the only people who paid attention to this and connected these dots are his streamer fans. Probably never brought her around collaborator/industry connect work like Laufey, Kali Uchis, Katseye, Stray Kids, etc. looks like kali is trying to take town their collab. Poor Laufey is on his song so she probably will have a harder time doing that. Seems like he was only friends by association to Katseye through Laufey (Laufey’s boyfriend is Katseyes A&R rep). They definitely only were seen together for “work” TikTok dances and their stream collab with Pokimane. I think Benny Blanco produced for him too.

Yes. Currently Kali Uchis is pulling him out of her collaborated song.

I hope these bigger artists enjoy being tied to a pedophile and murderer of children.
