Feelings after deaths.

This post is about the way people see a person after they are dead, the recent passing of XXXtencition (not even sure if I spelled that right) has brought to light various comments about him from several people, along with those comments I have now gained a deeper insight to how people’s character towards you tends to switch after you’re dead,

Sadly, there are a lot of people I knew that hated X, like really hated him but the moment he passed and they started seeing the news on various people’s statuses, stories, posts, etc. They instantly came up with sweet words for him, saying they loved his songs, and his message when they didn’t even know about his message or even play a single track, it sincerely turned my stomach, it also made me realize that people are so locked in and controlled by this loop they call a trend that they can have an individual opinion on somebody one second but the moment the trend turns towards hating or loving that individual they switch instantly, the item called the trend has stolen so many people’s individuality and made them so hungry for attention, for people to see them as socially popular, or socially woke. It honestly saddened me.

For me I never quite liked X, I didn’t give him enough attention to recognize his message, I heard a couple of his tracks , most of which I didn’t vibe to, it’s not like I’m not sad that another person has been taken off the earth, that the fact that the hood or your people(blacks) don’t really love you has once again been brought to fruition, honestly it’s a sad thing but I can’t then become a hypocrite and say I loved you after you died when I didn’t love you when you were alive, but then I have to say that my concept of X has been tweaked a little, people started posting videos of him talking to his fans and all that, and I started to realize maybe there was a side to X I didn’t know, he seemed more intelligent in his videos than I ever gave him credit for and sadly that was a fault on my part, I judged him before I even got to know him, which is something I tell myself never to do, a lot of individuals have that side that the public never really sees as far as I could tell, his message was directed at the little ones, the teenagers in some kind of problem, it seems that respect him more after his death than when he was alive.

So what I’m trying to convey to all of you today is first to not be a hypocrite don’t say good about a person after he’s dead like you knew him and cherished him while he was alive, it ain’t right and secondly don’t judge someone before you get to know them, give them a chance, know them a little then decide, I made my mistake don’t make yours.
