The 2010s have been a decade full of colorful musical expression, but there was also a darker streak of misfortune and tragedy overshadowing many of our generation's cultural victories. In this video I talk about my own experience in the last few months and my futures hopes for the channel. There are a few disclaimers I think are important to include in this video: Jeremiah and I are both in better places in life now, Jeremiah especially has been able to get the help he needed and he is doing much better now. We talk a lot and we hope to spend more time together later this year.
In this video I discuss broad trends of mental health and the tragic results of that including the premature deaths of XXXTentacion, Lil Peep, Juice Wrld, Mac Miller, etc. I tried to synthesize these broad, somewhat abstract cultural events with my own personal life in a way that illustrates just how serious these issues are.
This is also my first time ever using a facecam in a video so I hope you enjoyed that! Please feel free to leave any feedback you might have in a comment or an Insta/Twitter DM.
