I sincerely apologize for telling you your career was dead; I’m sorry—I was just so angry and frustrated that you would toy with us, your fans, like that.

I just hope you regain control of your life and your music. Thank you for being one of the few artists who gives a name and an explanation to emotions and situations; I have never regretted listening to your music, Matthew Tyler Musto—a.k.a. blackbear—as you’ve been with me for so many years.

You’ve also inspired me to believe that we can make our dreams come true, and I hope with all my heart that God and life grant you many more years, knowing full well that your health requires great care and sacrifice.

I’m sorry you don’t get the recognition you deserve from the music industry; you are a great artist, songwriter, and producer.

Love you, Mat—a.k.a. blackbear.

It is with immense sorrow and sadness that we must consider his musical career dead; he hasn't released anything for four years, with projects being cancelled one after another since late 2023—first *Enzymes and other words I don't remember*, then *Future Tripping*, and finally *the trilogy Analogue*. Today, June 26, 2026, was supposed to be a pivotal day for his career—a chance to give us a project—but Mat threw it all away.

blackbear was "2012–2026" 🕊.
