Demetrius Kent right as an addict I can say kicking heroin isn’t easy and it’s amazing he shared his story of getting prescribed pain killers and how it escalated he could’ve saved many lives with that, which is a success
Dude was my classmate in community college for art classes back in 2001, he n Gym Class Heroes started there, doing shows at the campus, he was good at art yes and I remember him selling me a demo casette of him rhyming on beats which I still have :)
That kind of music just isn't popular any more unfortunately. He seems creative though, I'm sure he'll end up doing something lucrative and fulfilling. If nothing else, he is still really attractive. Maybe modeling?
NickiMinajTaylorSwift did find the quote that said he would be doing art and making tattoo designs if it wasn't for music. Lots of people quit Hollywood and the recording studios to follow more calming and "normal" careers after losing interest in being shown on camera.
I kinda don't like their approach on these kinda videos. 'only sold so-many-thousand copies' ... Well excuse me, compared to how many copies have you sold?
That’s very irrelevant. To a very indie artist, thousands of copies is great but for someone that has sold millions and was in the top 10, only a few thousand or so copies is very disappointing. GCH is making music that had its day and sadly it’s past. Doesn’t mean they’re bad but unless they made music with the sound relevant to today, their time in the mainstream spotlight is over.
@@h2obreezy247 I agree, today's mainstream music is truly utter garbage. In my opinion there is in a mainstream band today that could touch Gym Class Heroes.
To be very honest, boy had it coming. Only reason he didn’t become as famous as the current celebrities was only because he didn’t sell his soul to the devil 😂. He stayed clean. And clean people stay at the bottom in this industry, sadly.
liam. It’s very few groups that can adjust too the current state of music take maroon 5 for example sure they earlier shit was much better then their new stuff but you gotta give them credit their one of a very few groups from the early 2000s that are still relevant an still putting music out that gets played on the radio constantly
Exactly like the person said before... Travie was dating her during a summer tour they were both doing, Gym Class Heroes was the main stars, she was like an opening act or something (not too sure about that but she was basically just starting with I kissed A girl and I like it song and had no fan base or popularity). He featured her in a song and that’s when people started asking who she was... because she was Travie’s girl at the time, then she played my boy for his fame and used him as a stepping stone to gain popularity. Katy Perry is Travie’s ex girlfriend... not the other way round.
So like this hit me outta nowhere I was just chilling in my room and was like , WAIT WHAT HAPPENED TO TRAVIE MCCOY 😶😶😶 I searched , idk why but I got emotional 😭😭😭💔 But I heard he's great so I'm happy for him❤
For YEARS, I’ve wondered why Travis was never brought up when talking about Katy Perry’s past. At least, I’ve never seen him brought up. As we moved further and further away from their time together, it was as if he was getting less and less mention. I used to like Gym Class Hero’s. To this day I still play On My Own. Some serious ear candy! ☺️
Was a fan of him since 2006 (MySpace era) "Cupids Chokehold" was the hottest video on MTV. Love his swagger! I wanna see and hear more from those guys!
You know. I kinda found it a little rude that Travie McCoy’s 2010 album Lazarus only got 2.5 stars! Like cmon! What on Earth were people thinking?! This was such a stupid move people made! 😡
Cuz there’s just hating ass pussys everywhere i don’t understand this either no matter how good a video is there’s always a small percent of dislikes like wtf
Because it's called freedom. Be blessed you live in a society where you're allowed to express different opinions that doesn't align with yours. I used to live in a communist country and I can hell sure say most of people who live in the Western world their whole lives take their freedoms for granted
This guy showed up at my job and I literally thought he was just a "druggie-brother-from-another-mother" kind of look-a-like. It was only when a co-worker showed me recent photos from McCoy's Instagram (which included his location in the description) that I realized the guy I was looking at was actually Travie McCoy. Drugs really changed his look.
Massive metalhead but use to like travie & GCH when I was younger. He said dudes making "dark metal" I've only heard the more poppy songs... any1 recommend some of their heavier/darker songs?
Nobody talked about stereo hearts, the fighter, Ass back here, etc.. which were bigger than amazing. This is why media sucks and swallows at the same time.
Denise Harvey actually you’re incorrect. I see him every other week where he comes to do business transactions. He broke his foot badly and had problems with drugs because he depended on them after his foot accident. He’s been losing the weight slowly. But he is still heftier than he ever was. He is a great person with great vibes.
What other celebs do you want to catch up with?
Nicki Swift I want to know what happened to David Archuleta
Nicki Swift Natasha battlefield, Nicole schizinger, the ting tings, shontelle, Carly Rae Jansen, Tatu
Jason Marz
Nicki Swift Craig David
what happen to Kardashians
He simply turned into a regular human, active father and killed his pill addiction. I'd say that's a success story...
Demetrius Kent he's not a father.
Demetrius Kent he ditched that witch and ended up happy........
Demetrius Kent right as an addict I can say kicking heroin isn’t easy and it’s amazing he shared his story of getting prescribed pain killers and how it escalated he could’ve saved many lives with that, which is a success
Well it was opiates in general because he turned to heroin.

Gym Class Heroes was so damn underrated.

Gym Class Heroes defines the early 2010s

This is so chronologically all over the place.
I know right 😂
I was about to comment this. Damn! So confusing, the viewers need to adjust. Hahaha
Absolutely! This shit was awful...... Listening to it felt like watching the movie Memento for the first time
Yeah felt like I was on speed
I miss him so much. I loved him.
TheGirlLikesMovies ikr
TheGirlLikesMovies You didn't know him.
TheGirlLikesMovies the lighter brother still makes music he let out a mixtape a year ago I believe
He didnt die
Dontae James you know what she means. Ugh 🙄
He seems like a good guy
He is a great guy! I wish I could meet him.
He looks like the guy I buy my weed from.
The question Is why wouldn't he be a Good guy..?
He’s from my hometown Geneva Ny my mom used to babysit him
Jason Blake his home town is right next to mine...
That kind of music just isn't popular any more unfortunately. He seems creative though, I'm sure he'll end up doing something lucrative and fulfilling. If nothing else, he is still really attractive. Maybe modeling?
TheXxjackchopxX I like your optimism and positivity friend

yep
Shahad Alqurashi lol moron there's nothing like devil or anything you believe in. Its just hardwork or sometimes any other reason
Shahad Alqurashi exactly
Shahad Alqurashi sorta true the best are at the top and the legends are dead just like lil peep
The devil? You mean networking, luck of the draw, timing and constant innovation.
There’s nothing supernatural about success.
None of the groups from 2010 can nerver come back unless they change there sound cuz it's a whole new wave of music that's blown up
Facts 💯

liam. FR bruh, this new wave is LIL UZI and PLAYNOI CARTI type of sounding artists
+Ralph Wiggum Paramore as well. Paramore is still on top of their game.
liam. Their
travis mccoy is so fineeeeeee.
maya you are too
MoneyOverFame true, I really am 🙂
Dontae James your spelling is as bad as your taste ☹️ sad.
Dontae James you keep commenting and being mean on girls comments about trav. Jealous much?
L
Ahh.. I miss Gym Class Hero's 2000's music. My sister and I used to sing Cupids Chokehold all the time when we were little.
that group was popular alongside Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, Cobra Starship, The Academy Is... and more
Nichole Sarah yessss!
God I remember my friend playing their crappy music all the time and the rest of us begging him to change it.
If you miss the album, go listen to it.. it hasn't gone anywhere, you have.
Paper Cut Chronicles is still my favorite album from them.
"My family and i have been through some rough patches, but as ive gotten older I've learned to bury the hatchet" #Bars🔥🔥🔥🔥
I’ve wanted to hug him since I was little, he just seems like he gives genuine hugs 🌟
He lives in the same town as me and he literally just chills out in the town like a normal person and he’s really nice ✨
people commenting "who?" gtfo this aint something you know about why you click it?
Exactly , they have to know who he is if they clicked it
Aysa A. Triggered much
Right
Elijah Marquez yea i was tf
That's why they clicked it.. so they can know about him.
Always had a thing for Travie. Love the GCH and love all his music. Hope he stays healthy and we get new music from him when he's ready. 😘
Jenna Leigh's Beauty Slam :]
Jenna Leigh's Beauty Slam he was so.....
My old MySpace name was Mrs Travie McCoy
Makiyah Jackson Damn girl you’re talkin hieroglyphic days.
I forgot abt myspace 😩😩😩😂😂 omg wow took it way back
thepuertoricanprince that's how u know she stupid Mccoy wasn't even in the music before my space died 😂😂😂
Pete Martinez The band was created in 1997...
My old Facebook name was Rachel McCoy 😂😂
His sound was ahead of the curve. He was a few years before the Lils and XXXTentacion and Post Malone.
Speaking facts 💯💯💯
No his style paved way and more akin to the likes of Asher Roth, Macklemore, Lil Nicky, Sam Adams, the late great Mac Miller
I've had a crush on Travie since I was like 12.
I'm 25 now and still crushing. Haha
Jael Suidan lol 👀
It was 8 years ago not 13
Jael Suidan I had a client that lookednjuat like him! But he was too young for me....
You must not have seen him recently
You old grow up and face reality.
He never became a billionaire.
it aint over yet
Read how much money he owns, you'll change your mind.
At one stage he was worth 8 million. Long way off being a billionaire.
He would be broke now, spent it all on heroin.
Jack n' Joy sorry had to laugh.
"How much money he owns"
Never heard anyone in my life say that.
He does not own any money the federal reserve does.
Matt Hardy lol
WHAT HAPPEN TO Taio Cruz?? He was soo big and good!!
Major pause
Tom VenUS I loved him so much!!
Tom VenUS jlhe released a single today
steve empire ru on Spotify?
VIsubby Lol What? That’s his old song
Damn dude I remember him and gym class heroes hope he's doin well and hope he gets another hit I'd like to see more of him
Always thought he was cute
isn't he Lyga s cousin!? LMAO
Raul Macias u mean tyga?
Tatiana Talavera You get what he's doing?
Me too
@@raulmacias3737 lmao Tyga aint an L no more
He look like an edgy hipster Joakim Noah
Xaviér Smith accurate 😂
He was the first famous bf of katty perry
Nicole Lopez I forgot about that
many others since then
Kinda funny he was bigger than her at 1 point and featured her in a video when she was unknown
Exactly like the person said before... Travie was dating her during a summer tour they were both doing, Gym Class Heroes was the main stars, she was like an opening act or something (not too sure about that but she was basically just starting with I kissed A girl and I like it song and had no fan base or popularity).

Katy Perry is Travie’s ex girlfriend... not the other way round.
She was in the video for Cupids Chokehold before anyone knew who she was.
I feel like he may have seen things in the industry that he didn't like. The Game ain't for everyone.
Secrets and oaths
As cruel as school children still a favorite album of mine
He wouldn't join the illuminati.
we didnt want him in our culture.
Word... He ain't no sellout
word...thats y all i listen to is jet life and the underachievers lol
carmen smith no it's because he became addicted to oxycodone and then to heroin check out his video of him overcoming the addiction
BX47 my man!!! jet life and UA allday!!!
So like this hit me outta nowhere I was just chilling in my room and was like , WAIT WHAT HAPPENED TO TRAVIE MCCOY 😶😶😶 I searched , idk why but I got emotional 😭😭😭💔
But I heard he's great so I'm happy for him❤
You talking about my childhood artist thank you
He's got such a lovely face
For YEARS, I’ve wondered why Travis was never brought up when talking about Katy Perry’s past. At least, I’ve never seen him brought up. As we moved further and further away from their time together, it was as if he was getting less and less mention. I used to like Gym Class Hero’s. To this day I still play On My Own.

Damn, liked that guy and loved his music. Its time for a comeback
I remember I used to find him really cute, haven't heard from him in a few years
Was a fan of him since 2006 (MySpace era) "Cupids Chokehold" was the hottest video on MTV. Love his swagger! I wanna see and hear more from those guys!
Lmaoo his name is also my email/UA-cam alias 😫😂😂
This guy make you realize to appreciate music any genre or any messages of music have.
Crazy how Tyga is his cousin.
ray hanes really?
Khalin Davis yea they are
Who caree
It is true
this is tygas fault
he's so cute, and he seems like he has such a great heart
Middle school daze !!!!!!!!!!!
Booger Boy yessss
I still listen to his old songs til this day lol. Fighter and Billionaire are two of my favorite songs
He recently made a song with train. I love travie and he should make more music now.
My band played with Gym Class back in 2009 with some other somewhat big bands. They were cool dudes.
The comments are more interesting than the video
Jane Dhoe exactly. i liking n reading comments
while d Vid play . lol
TYSM FOR MAKING THIS -- A REAL ICON
Travie is an awesome artist, he will be back
Went to High School with he and GCH - good down to earth ppl
I used to obsessed with him when he was dating Katy Perry lol
Why he is so underrated , he is OSM 💯
I work at jfk just saw him last week... stop and talk to me for a bit so his cool
Joshua Torres ohhh really I work at JFK too! Delta!
You know. I kinda found it a little rude that Travie McCoy’s 2010 album Lazarus only got 2.5 stars! Like cmon! What on Earth were people thinking?! This was such a stupid move people made! 😡
I hope this guy succeeds and whatever he decides to pursue
He’s back in music now
What about “a** back home” by Gym Class heroes ? That was a GREAT song and unfortunately underrated
He was the bomb and had the right to go solo. Should've been a big star, he was cheated out of his career
Well , he is back today ! 💯
viva la white girl was the best...
danny13947thats prolly the only song I like by then
Gym Class heroes was Underrated af
You guy's should do the rapper chiddy bang.
I love his talking voice🙈🙈🙈😍
It just sounds so good
Anyone else or is it just me?
dude had katie perry before she blew up
by far my favorite music artist, and a huge fan of gym class heroes
It's weird that you find "thumbs down" on any an every video. Why is this?
Cuz there’s just hating ass pussys everywhere i don’t understand this either no matter how good a video is there’s always a small percent of dislikes like wtf
I disliked it on accident 😜
That’s how the universe works. We need negatives, everything can’t be positive or neutral.
SAMO 6IX what IS, doesn't always illuminate what could or should be.
Because it's called freedom. Be blessed you live in a society where you're allowed to express different opinions that doesn't align with yours. I used to live in a communist country and I can hell sure say most of people who live in the Western world their whole lives take their freedoms for granted
Dayum I miss gym class heros! Come back guys!
Blame it all on Katy Perry
Early 2010s was his era
He became Nipsy Hustle
When the world needed him most, he vanished
What about “Far east Movement”?
Frozen Xavier the sparked,flared, then went out like a match
1 hit wonder
Like a g6 lol
Who?
Lmao they were so cheesy
This guy showed up at my job and I literally thought he was just a "druggie-brother-from-another-mother" kind of look-a-like. It was only when a co-worker showed me recent photos from McCoy's Instagram (which included his location in the description) that I realized the guy I was looking at was actually Travie McCoy. Drugs really changed his look.
Travis mcCoy just changed his name to russ
His name and was always referred to as... was TRAVIS. Don't know where this whole TRAVIE crap came from.
Stacy B err he says it in his own song, billionaire?
here to let y’all know the album didn’t drop yet!
im sure Siya from Sisterhood of Hiphop is his sister? they look & talk alike
Travie is a way better MC than his cousin Tyga. Wish this dude was still putting out music.
um i know travie personally and he’s doing great btw
If this real. Tell him I miss him as a fan. Thank you for brighten my childhood.
His band was dope used to love his music. ❤ It's stupid that he got so much hate
He turned into the weekend
What happened to him ?
He's soooo handsome.😍
He signed that contract in blood and didn't read the fine print .....it wasn't worth it
He’s gorgeous
I eventually had to click on this since It kept coming up on my recommended , you happy now UA-cam ?
Isn't that tygas cousin?!? I remember some one like this dude or similar to him being tygas cousin!
Jae KiDd yes it’s his cousin
Yes, great guy all around. Made incredible music and now simply his life in a different phase
if i was just another dusty record on the shelf...
Massive metalhead but use to like travie & GCH when I was younger. He said dudes making "dark metal" I've only heard the more poppy songs... any1 recommend some of their heavier/darker songs?
Couldn't keep his hands out the cookie jar!
He's so calm guy
lol what the heck, neither his music or gym class heroes is anything related to "rock" or "metal"
Maritza Urbina its alternative rnb which is a type of indie rock
Nobody talked about stereo hearts, the fighter, Ass back here, etc.. which were bigger than amazing. This is why media sucks and swallows at the same time.
He gained a lot of weight and lives in the city now
no go to his Instagram he's still slim if not slimmer. He's awesome though with a fantastic spirit & vibe.
Denise Harvey actually you’re incorrect. I see him every other week where he comes to do business transactions. He broke his foot badly and had problems with drugs because he depended on them after his foot accident. He’s been losing the weight slowly. But he is still heftier than he ever was. He is a great person with great vibes.
He still slim. He was thicc for a second but he back to being skinny.
Been loving him since I was 14 . I still follow him on Instagram and Snapchat . He actually often visits a restaurant in my town !
He really needs em featurings lol
But yeah me too tho haha so hmu if u tryna work
He was so unique and different.
His side burns out grew him, and his neck tats took over?😂
Hold i stilk dont knw where he is with the video?
Dark metal?
Alex Avery like really 😂😂😂
Kari Yates girl I was just as confused.
Same here I rewinded it thought I didn't hear it right
Falling off is an understatement when describing this guy
oh no she's at the bottom if that bottle
I played in a band that opened for GCH in 09. All the guys were super cool.
What happened to mindless behavior
Cori Bratcher roc royal just came out of jail for burglary and has a son, prodigy went solo and is flopping and Ray Ray does nothing from my knowledge
Sutanai M damn 😭😭😭
Sutanai M oh ok
You forgot Princeton is a gay wannabe Instagram model who is also flopping
