8 years ago... Almost a decade.

That day was extremely normal for me. As a 14-year-old, about to turn 15 at the beginning of the following month, I did my housework, studied, and then was able to enjoy the privileges of adolescence. It was late afternoon here in Brazil when my uncle (only a year older than me) sent me a video saying that X had died. It was the infamous video footage of him inside the BMW in the driver's seat with his head tilted upwards; showing no sign of life... Initially, I doubted he was dead; after all, X had faked his death the previous year during the marketing campaign for the 17 album. And the main detail: there was no blood present. At least it wasn't captured in that video. I thought: NO WAY! And I went straight to Google to confirm whether he was actually dead or not.

​

The confirmation of the death would come a few hours later...

Just letting you know that I have Peep's vinyl and you don't! 🫵😝🤪

Just kidding guys I just wanted to show off one of the most precious items in my collection. This album is priceless because of the impact it had on young Luan's life when he was 14 years old. I'm almost 23 now. Almost a decade has passed...

Dúvida rápida

Eu moro em Salvador, Bahia e tenho dificuldades de arranjar um emprego fixo, pois aqui só há oportunidades do tipo operador de telemarketing, gestor de RH, auxiliar logístico ou de cozinha. Muitas dessas áreas exigem formação acadêmica e não é viável pra mim, pois são áreas que não se alinham ao meu interesse profissional, mas tive que trabalhar em algumas delas pra poder sobreviver e pagar minhas contas. O meu interesse é mais voltado pra área artística ou de história e embora queira fazer faculdade pra ter especialidade e um diploma, não dá pra trabalhar nessas áreas pelo menos por aqui, por conta de fatores políticos, sociais e culturais, que tornam essa parte do território brasileiro uma região decadente e sem perspectiva de vida/mudança. Estou desempregado agora e não aguento mais esses trabalhos que sou obrigado a me candidatar, pois não me sinto realizado e não se encaixam em meu perfil. Se eu saísse do país ou me mudasse de estado, teria alguma chance de mudar esse quadro? Ou a ideia de mudança é apenas um mito?

​

Obs.: Eu não estou dizendo que quero um caminho mais fácil, afinal, estou ciente de que todas as áreas da vida profissional são desafiadoras, mas quero fazer parte de algo que me traga satisfação. Uma jornada digna.

Sasuke fanart by me

Coincidentally I made this drawing the day before my dog passed away. Her name was Bela she was a Dalmatian. He spent 10 years with us from his birth until his death (2015-2025). I hadn't drawn in so long and when I picked up my pen again I got quite engrossed in this art.

May 13, 2018; XXXTentation performance at Rolling Loud Miami was 8 years ago. It was the last performance of his short career before his death.

X would be arrested between June and July 2018 and receive a sentence of approximately 30 years. The quartet that attempted to rob him and consequently kill him would be arrested in another attempted robbery or killed during the action. X would release singles from inside prison, as he did during his time in prison in 2016. His name would remain high for the next two years and then begin to decline, along with a drop in artistic quality, due to the lack of opportunity to expand his own creativity from inside prison. The lack of a new album since ? in March 2018 would contribute to the drop in streaming numbers. X would sink into depression but would soon overcome this phase, although he never managed to recover the reach of numbers he achieved during 2017-2018. Attempts to release compilations, as well as a Free X Part 2 release, would be an absolute failure and would ruin the growth in numbers he achieved between the respective releases of 17 and ?, always remaining between 80th and 70th place on the Billboard charts and among the last in the Spotify top 50 ranking. Ski Mask wouldn't be able to manage the Members Only collective alone, and just like in the original timeline, the collective would cease to exist. X would be marked in almost the same way as in our original timeline; the media would recognize him as a troubled young man who had a rapid rise and who, due to his criminal history, suffered the decline of a gigantic career that he could never recover. X would still be a reference for the new generation of musicians, especially in the SoundCloud Rap scene, and later, he would discover more deeply and develop his ability to help mentally unstable people, and upon leaving prison 30 years later, he would travel the USA giving lectures, talking about his tumultuous life and what he did to overcome these problems... like in those testimonial videos on the BBC. In short... Rick's fate would be bittersweet, like Bojack Horseman.

I just looked for alternative versions of this song and I liked this one so much that I'm doubting its authenticity. Could it be an old leak or something a fan made? It was published seven years ago.
