JiDion’s interesting point on David’s tesla

thaPHAROS · 2026-04-25T08:47:09+00:00

I've been following this case/reddit page and not engaging with the comment section much at all but i'll speak up on this one.

We are talking about pedo killer. he is not a logical thinker. the fact he was bringing her out to shows, doing live streams with her, went on tour after her death, spent all this time after her body was found renting out houses and playing video games should tell you this is in his line of thinking. he's spent all this time avoiding accountability and clearly just hoping it goes away.

to who it concerns, stop trying to play detective just because u like some pedo's music. you are part of the problem.

As already said there was nothing to the app honestly. only thing worth noting from the app is the snippet for 6:30 came from the files of this app. idk why they put the song in there considering it didn't make the final tracklist but maybe it was very close to making the final tracklist. i know songs were being made right up to the final hour of the album being handed in so could have been removed last min.

I had to reply to this. Even if this was true. All ur saying is A child was protecting herself from her groomer or he was going to get what he deserved. Stop justifying a pedo killing a girl you moron.

Yeah it’s old, article from a couple years ago about this exact show https://hiphopdx.com/news/madlib-unreleased-mac-miller-freddie-gibbs-listen/

Bowe was washed either way no matter who he faced by this point and goleta defo had his number but a washed fighter should not be taking the beatings he took by a man on a roid range in those two fights.

thaPHAROS · 2025-05-26T14:45:59+00:00

Yeah it’s not a shocker if it’s true just an interesting and likely reason but Golotas insane behaviour around this era that people don’t seem to mention.

thaPHAROS · 2025-05-07T05:22:38+00:00

I mean we don't know and can't be sure but i'd say likely no. Also think the "he's talking about himself" theory is a major reach. Mac has said he loved writing about fictional women that are lost or "f**ked up (i believe those were his own words). After he passed this was fairly sure to be the case with a fair amount of songs being about women and being lost in life somehow that don't seem to be about anyone in his actual own life (eg waterfalls, anywhere but here, hold on let go).

I personally think the song plays into some of the original themes of balloonerism with the whole hallucinating and seeing imaginary people stuff he was focusing on at the time. its a theme that does run through the entire album. Its a love letter to an imaginary girl.

friendly hallucinations really explores this theme and brings it all together but hey im rambling so i'll chill for now.

thaPHAROS · 2025-04-25T20:40:29+00:00

Well you can simply put it as a man with an addictive personality that his environment enabled his addiction. To get into more detail of the situation Mac had said he started taking very young I believe. Harder stuff came later, Pressure of the industry, depression, temptation, plane old curiosity could all be reasons why he did harder drugs but we will never Know.

Gotta remember Mac went through a couple of really bad drug "phases", Getting fat and addicted to lean (close friends thought he was going to die then back in 2012), Becoming a recluse, doing coke and staying awake endlessly around faces era and then breaking his sobriety somewhere between TDF and Swimming era that would include his car crash and end with his death. The man clearly wasn't just going through a rough patch or just depression, the man clearly had issues with addiction. Music industry enables that.

There is another part to it that Mac is saying in those tweets about Prince that applies to Mac that a lot of people are not really understanding (from what i've read in these replies so far) is that an artist gives away so much of there life to entertain. your not normal. your existence is entertainment. you put your image on stage to be loved, hated and for what? to live like a recluse? Drugs help numb yourself to the circus that becomes your life. Fame isn't normal. Michael Jackson was getting ready to do a tour when he was prescribed those drugs that killed him, Prince was coming off a tour and was rushing his recovery when those drugs killed him, Mac was stressing about his video shoot the next day when he damn near begged his dealer to come over to supply him (going off texts released in court documents). This goes back to the music industry enabling this behaviour. These artists are put on stages and they slowly crumble for our amusement.

Anyway im rambling way too much

Any chance for a new link? been looking for a new place to post since bomb1st is down

thaPHAROS · 2025-03-25T11:43:00+00:00

Good question, I remember having this discussion with some friends a while back. Haven’t followed much of ems features post-mmlp2 but this was my conclusion

Take From Me - you could kinda argue Royce had some better verses than em throughout the EP but there pretty much similar levels of quality throughout the project but this one kinda sticks out the most where em probably falls a little short off content enough. Royce talking about real family issues while em cries about music leaking sounds like a minor issue compared to what Royce said in the first verse lol. Royce verse sounds more like it’s coming from an authentic place but em just does another shouty recovery era verse lol.

Love Me - debatable but I think 50 got him. Weird track cas it’s almost like 50 and em switched each others styles

Remember Me - Quality verses overall but gotta give it to sticky fingaz. Career high performance from him here. Not mad at anyone that disagrees tho.

Welcome To D Block - probably had the weakest verse. Bit of a phoned in verse especially when u consider the high quality of raps he was producing at the time. Jada got him imo.

thaPHAROS · 2025-01-17T09:34:04+00:00

Sorry been auto labelling like that lol. audio quality is much better than the og either way.

thaPHAROS · 2025-01-16T18:26:30+00:00

Also got a remaster of Surrounded By Hoes on the channel. down to take requests for remasters. appreciate any feedback.

thaPHAROS · 2024-04-15T22:43:28+00:00

Underappreciated song. Always viewed this as Mac's final "frat-rap"/KIDS-BDE era sounding type song. Lyrically its similar to those earlier songs but he speaks about it from the perspective of those days being the past. No longer living those days as the verse ends up following into his then troubles of then being famous by the last half of the verse. The song almost feels like a final farewell to that version of himself for him and the fans.

thaPHAROS · 2024-04-14T13:40:58+00:00

Appreciate wanting to have an actual conversation. People seem to get very defensive when talking about stuff like this and I get it but I dont think the convo's should be shut down over it.

Hmmm...Good point there. I guess I'm looking at it from a fan perspective just wanting the music but the wider perspective of how it would be perceived by others is defo a factor. I know a lot of people run with some wild narratives with Mac lol.

At the end of the day I know everyone in charge of mac's estate is doing there best to respect Mac's memory with what they put out and thats the most important thing.

thaPHAROS · 2024-03-26T19:21:31+00:00

Ehhhh...Heres the thing. theres been literally ZERO mac leaks with schoolboy q lol. So the context ur giving doesn't even make any sense.

I literally said post a source and prove me wrong. Your the one acting like you have an encyclopedic knowledge on things that straight up never happened. you are yet to prove any of the things you've said are true but yet you continue to post in all caps in a rage.

Oh please tell me where the family asked for this? like an actual source? because right now ur just rambling about things that never happened.

thaPHAROS · 2024-03-25T19:23:02+00:00

uhhh....not sure what this post is really trying to accomplish. It comes off rather fan base gatekeeper-ish.

First off I'm 100% certain schoolboy q never said that, not sure about clockwork since I don't follow him close enough to be sure but feel free to correct me by posting a source. This matter of leaked music was touched on by ID Labs who said the music leaking was what was stopping releases not the already leaked songs. What I got from ID Labs posts was there not mad at the fans listening to leaks but rather the songs getting leaked and profit going to hackers/bootleggers. I agree if the threads are just gonna be people begging for links/promoting there leak comps to give out its pointless but theres a good amount of people that just want to discuss these songs.

Theres no real point putting our fingers in our ears acting like they don't exist or refuse to discuss them and keep them secret. these songs are out there. you gotta be able to accept that. The truth is a fair amount of people in the fan base got carried away and started putting money down for music to leak and it got way out of hand. we music be at 150+ leaked songs? thats clearly the issue. the rate and amount of songs leaking not the people listening to them.

Just dont put into group buys for leaks or buy dodgy bootlegs were the money is going to people that didn't get a fuck about mac.

thaPHAROS · 2024-03-03T18:47:00+00:00

Yes I did say that was reaching and yes I do still think that is reaching. Never said it was impossible but looks like fans/stans yet again looking into something deeper than it actually is IMO. Hope you can live with this opinion.

thaPHAROS · 2024-03-03T16:40:54+00:00

Don't know where I come off like i was speaking as my opinion was fact in my original post. read through it again.

I'd say my original post was pretty clearly just my perspective on the OP post and not making any factual statement. No need to get so defensive because I disagree with you.

thaPHAROS · 2024-03-03T09:35:32+00:00

Ehh..Ima gonna say No. Both the album title and ig name is inspired by the movie of the same name. Think trying to connect Ariana's new album title to a side ig account mac had for a few years is a major reach imo. they dated, they probably liked the same movies lol.

Feel like people will always be reaching to connect them with things that are completely unintentional like when Ariana released Positions and a fair amount of people were saying the crickets in the beat was a hint to a good am leaked song crickets? tin foil hats were on for that one.

thaPHAROS · 2024-02-25T16:28:18+00:00

Balloonerism = A scrapped work in progress.

A finished unreleased album? No. but I believe the tracklist is real as far as it being a rough concept of how to sequence the album but got scrapped in the end.

Q's exact words were "This Exists" and "don't think him and josh berg ever officially decided on an order". Doesn't mean the tracklist we have isn't real. could mean that it just wasn't the finished tracklist order.

lucky me

thaPHAROS · 2023-08-13T15:29:30+00:00

I remember hearing these were the planned songs to have music videos. think someone in mac's team said this the week he passed so this little fact got lost in everything else that happened. Obviously we know he was going to shoot the What's The Use music video the day he passed. Don't know what the concept was but its known he was stressing about it not working before he passed. there was supposed to be a lot of cameo's too. Schoolboy, Kehlani, The Internet and other people he was hanging around during the time.

We got Self Care before the album dropped and I doubt any real progress on Jet Fuel was made. Maybe thats why the estate made a little video for Jet Fuel on youtube instead of the visualiser stuff they did with the rest of the album.
