    Instead of him being labelled as a "Toxic" artist, I would say his music is humbling in a way. Such as calling out the ugly of romance, and not the fairytale stuff media pushes currently. He just has raw talent, and crafts it into masterpieces that show the 'glamour' and the 'distasteful' things a relationship can come with and being famous as well.

      The way the songs transition throughout the whole album? It was amazing. I feel like he should’ve went viral from THAT album. but I’m glad he’s getting recognition and sm more love now.

      I 1000% agree!! I was a fan of that album when it released back in 2017, before he blew up. I hate how it didn’t get the recognition it deserved. Wayyyyyy better than his recent album in my opinion!
