Jahseh was essentially a clout martyr.

Everyone is claiming this was a random robbery, but it's clear what was actually happening: his killers were driven to take his life solely for the sake of clout. They wanted infamy of their own and found it in gunning down a 20-year old.

As Jah was taking his final breath, he was surrounded by kids taking video and pictures of him. Why? For clout. No one was taking his pulse, no one was calling 911, everyone was standing around with their phones out as his body was clinging to life.

The moral lesson of Jahseh's life story should be a cautionary tale of the horrors of social media and how it's fucked our society beyond belief.

RIP Jah. See you in Heaven...

faggots like this aren't even Gen Z. more likely they're millennials or even Gen X that took way too much drugs and horribly stunted their growth. that's why they're so uncanny looking. when did this nigg get all that ink? when he was 12? i think not

He didn't innovate anything. Not a single notable rap artist of the past seven years has said they were influenced by X. He was a novelty act in life and remains one in death.

Blending rock and rap has been a thing since the 80s.

Plenty of music has been about depression, heartbreak, and the like.

Again, what exactly did this kid innovate that wasn't already being done by much better artists?
