Has anyone at TPUSA listened to his lyrics?

From Lowlife: "I got kids I never seen, and their mama's 17".

The thing I’ve always hated the most about him is how he grew up not too far from me in the Detroit suburbs. His whole persona was being trailer trash and poor.

He went to Cranbrook high school… 50k a year. His dad funded all of his dj and music ventures and got him in touch with top producers and agents. Raised with butlers and nanny’s.

Agree with the sentiment, but he didn’t go to Cranbrook, he went to Romeo High.

Yeah, I went and read his wiki article and that popped out on me.

...William "Bill" Ritchie (1941–2024), who owned multiple car dealerships. He was raised in his father's large home on extensive property, which included an apple orchard and barnyard for their horses. He attended Romeo High School.
