It’s just the same song 27 times...

The Lil Peep release felt complete. This trash... I could make this myself in a day. It’s fucking laughable. Easily the worst thing under X’s name. Not even his fault. The label is grave robbing and it is disgusting.

They should have given him a better sendoff than this shit. This is insulting
