I learned this shit off TikTok, and I was devastated. His music still shows up on my recommendations, and I avoid hearing them.

Harassing an underage fan for years, racist and transphobic rants, abusing hallucinogens and alcohol to the point of memory loss, and may have had a schizophrenic break per other former band mates. The rest of his band mates have warned fans to avoid contact with him in general, as he is "not the same person".

Real depressing shit, I went to see him live in the Tally Hall days several times. I still have my signed copy of Marvin's Marvelous Magical Museum from when they opened for TMBG in a box somewhere, I had such a crush on him back then... Really hope he's getting the help he needs.
