Ever since Back To The Beginning, we have all been hearing a lot more about YungBlud. I personally have fallen in love with his latest album, Idols, and it's on my regular repeat list. His lyrics speak of deep pain, but also offer hope, something that is largely lacking in this world, and in my life as well, if I'm being honest.
I've also seen a LOT of talk about how he's "Riding Ozzy's coat-tails", how he's a fraud, just doing what he's doing for the attention. I am here to say ... so what? IF he is not genuine, then damn, we need more frauds like him. He portrays himself as someone who cares - TRULY cares - for his fans, the way Ozzy did. If it's an act, I really don't care. I have heard and seen nothing but outstanding behaviour from him, from helping folks get into shows, insisting that prices be reasonable, by being PRESENT when on stage and in front of fans .. he secretes love the way an Olympian secretes sweat. His love for people drips from him. You can see it in his smile. You can see it in his body language, how he interacts with people, how EASY it is for him to interact with people.
If YungBlud is fake, then let's all practice his brand of fakery, and remember that "Maybe it's not too late. To learn how to love and forget how to hate"
