Mental illness.

I guess if we can classify "attention-whore" as an illness.

This reached "trend-status" years ago.

 

[Impotaku]

Who?

budget Vision, with his only super power been annoying

. While remaining decidedly cryptic about their own sexual orientation, the rapper has repeatedly challenged the norms of hip-hop culture by playing with the notions of gendered clothing and donned rainbow-inspiredoutfits during Pride Month.

Why are they using they and him in the same sentence? Which one is it then?

 

[Hezekiah]

Oh ffs, another high-profile weirdo bringing normality to gender dysmorphia disorder.

 

[Eddie-Griffin]

There's a big push to try and get Black people on board the uh...whatever he's doing and supporting, but he's not the type of a.......advocate that will change minds. Really shows how out of touch the hollywood leadership is. Or any Music industry elites.

They tried this with Yachty when he had the gay couple kissing on his album cover, and he was more........sane than this guy. Or I guess it now?

 

[Maiden Voyage]

HIM??????

 

[Torrent of Pork]

I'm just going to assume his career was starting to lag a bit.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

...social media was a mistake.

None of this is new, or shocking, or a sign of the end of the world. Folks like David Bowie had the exact same criticisms hurled their way fifty years ago.

And a rock in the forehead is no stranger than any of the other thousands of extreme body modifications that artists all over the world undergo to express themselves. From gauged ears to split tongues, sure it's not something you'd expect from your average joe, but superstars tend to shrug off what's normal in their attempt to explore the limits of their art and what defines them as human beings.

From men daring to have long hair in the 60s, to the pop culture representation of ambiguous gender and sexuality on display in the 70s, on to the straight-up gay 80s, and even seeing Prince promoting a non-binary existence by shrugging off the stage name Prince and adopting an androgynous glyph as a moniker in the early 90s, absolutely none of this signals an end to the world as we know it, nor is it an indicator that any of these people are anything more than eccentric by your own standards.

So what if this person just happens to be the very latest in a very, very long line of people coming to terms with who and what they are and sharing the news with their millions of fans all across the world? They're in good company.

Talk about yelling at clouds.

No

 

[M1chl]

Alright them, but I worry, I will never talk about this person, so it's useless information.

 

[Bernd Lauert]

Wikipedia already changed its article.

"Lil Uzi Vert attracted mainstream attention following the release of their debut single "Money Longer" in 2016."

The talent pool was better back then.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

whats the forehead look like without the stone in place?

 

[belmarduk]

Man, It was difficult losing these two legends months apart from each other. They made some of the best music of all time.

Prince and Bowie will still be listened to for many generations to come while the likes of Lil Uzi Vert will be quickly forgotten.

This, people really comparing Bowie to Lil Uzi?
