    I think this dude had expectations after he made it, and he's just expressing his disappointments. The way he expresses it pisses people off. But he's not wrong. And he's not wrong about the way pop culture is moving. It's all moving to popularize drugs. Which is crazy.

      Collin Zirnheld it’s not just drugs. It’s sinning of every kind. And you don’t have to be a bible thumping Christian or even religious to get what I’m saying... they promote and romanticize a sinful lifestyle of all material and zero substance. Women, money, cars, fashion, drugs, guns, jewelry, crime, new, new, new etc. Its all turning into being about how terrible or a person you can be

      yeah and russ isn't talking about Mac's "true fans". Russ is simply saying what every other artist is too scared to say... Every body wishes for "rest" in peace, Russ is questioning for "life/live" in peace but they don't get clicks for that. It isn't hard to comprehend the difference. I don't understand the point in being so defensive tho, If you know who you are as "true fans" than you would understand he's trying to seperate those from leaches, "figure out what side of the fence you're on"...

      Jordan Peterson said "Don't be agreeable" research who he is he will change your life. He is a Professor who makes more than people within his field and more than Russ and many rappers on a regular basis. Russ's delivery is quite harsh so people see him as arrogant because he may lack eloquence but we have an intellectual who preaches what Russ does. That says a lot. A lot of times we want people to like us. Russ doesn't care adopting his shadow self so to speak. This is a very dominant position. Sort of Napolean haha who was average actually by today standard but it relates to Russ personality and small frame. His personality does shift him and in that industry it ain't going to work. Too much politics but this is life not only in this field. If his delivery showed more humility people would ride by it.

He acts like he is the god of rap and he just entered the space, he is going to act how he wants to, but at the end of the day this attitude he has will burn many bridges in the game and will screw him in the future.

    Russ has some points but he's not a good listener. He keeps saying he's about to be 26 but nobody really cares. He's going to look back at this interview when he's in his 40's and say "I was immature." I say this because when we're in our 20's we think we know life, but in reality we are literally beginning life. He's accomplished a lot and that's evident but he needs to learn how to have healthy dialogue so the conversation doesn't seem one sided. I'm not saying people in their 20's are immature. All I am saying is it's a time in life where we think we know it all! That's cool... Live and learn, but be TEACHABLE. CHECK OUT MY UA-cam CHANNEL FOR SOME GREAT CONTENT. PEACE!!!

Through consistency and determination. Instead of saying "I'm out" he should say" I'm going to start a record label with like minded people who are into building the generation up and teaching them about focusing on the music and not getting caught up in the glamour. Focusing in on sustaining wealth...

    Overly obnoxious as well as pretentious but talented. His problem is he goes out of his way so much to act like he doesn't care what people think but that is the only thing that he talks about which makes people irritated by him. Granted all talented people have their haters, he spends so much focus on trying to prove how he is so anti- everything else and how he is self-made and all these other things which for the most part are admirable but at the same time it steers away from that point because he makes his whole narrative about how no one likes or respects him for anything and yet he doesn't care but the reality is that he does so it's kind of irritating. There are pros and cons to him as an artist and his dances . It's just a shame that he can't get out of his own way but it doesn't make an excuse for how it's just become popular to hate Respek sick of legitimately focusing on the things that are understandably unlikable about him.

    I've worked with Russ. I was a director of an interview he did back in 2016. He definitely is very self absorbed and although I am a fan, he does belittle others especially behind the scenes. He has great message but he has to understand that he can express his emotions through a calmer more positive outlook instead of spreading alot of negativity. If he spoke like Cole or Kendrick, reserved and real, people would listen more. Otherwise it feels bitter

    Russ is not humble and therefore unrelatable by most. Thats why people dont like him. Like dude, we get it, you work hard, but stfu sometimes man..
    That said, he knows why people hate, and he doesnt care. So it is what it is, he gonna do him.
    Also, people doing drugs, no matter what reason, may be an issue..but calling them losers probably isnt the best tactic to get them to stop
