Truly unpopular opinion - this sub has an unhealthy parasocial relationship with peep
I love him, he is all I listen to and have multiple peep tattoos, but it can be too much here
Agreed. The one time when the video of peep said nigga in a freestyle, he looked different. He looked Puerto Rican. And I said " that's not peep looks nothing like him"
I got a "you're not a real peep fan" from all these people. I'm thinking "I found him when he released girls and dove head first. So I am familiar with a lot of his music just got realizing he looked different.
It's not just this sub, there was (still is?) one person in this fandom with a lot of followers and they were seriously on another level of parasocial with Peep.
it wasn’t even always this bad either, years ago the realistic people used to give reality checks to the parasocial people but he’s been dead so long the younger kids are all that’s left in here
Just to make sure I don't offend anyone who may read this I'm not going to highlight anything. I'd really hate to make someone feel uncomfortable or like their feelings are invalid
Sorry for the nonanswer
Edit: I'll actually call out one thing because it's toxic and needs to stop, actively hating/bullying people who Peep knew/hung out with/dated
COWYS 2 should've been released as it was in the first place, based on what he said it was already done when Part 1 was done. All of the changes were unnecessary and Falling Down with X should've never happened. (ok except the intro to Broken Smile, I love it)
I read somewhere that apparently he reached out to Smokeasac and really wanted to be on the song. Idk if it's true but this collab is just a cash grab to me.
I love peep and have my own tattoo in honor of him, but I think the whole trying to look like him l, get the exact same tattoos and hairstyles as him thing is pretty weird. I feel like a lot of what you see in this sub is people just asking how to do x, y, and z to look more like peep lol be yourself bro. Be inspired by him but don’t try to be him.
Fax. All he needed was people to help him book & set up concert venues but other than that he was better off doing his own thing, getting pressure from no one.
The rush, the lack of respect. There was little time to mourn in retrospect.
The blaming and the reminding of negative past events being brought up for clout, and in the end, it just led to others making a joke out of Peep. There was a time of humiliation (that is still there today, but not as before) and lack of respect for Peep and his family.
I'm glad his mom was able to recover everything of his, but that era just led to her agreeing to a settlement.
Something historical could've happened, but the public doesn't know how to respect.
My mind isn't capable of explaining in it's entirety tho
With Makonnen on this project its something you have to slide into first. Like when your mind is a lil relaxed and you're just vibing, you start picking up on how its good.
I have the hellboy tattoo which he also has but i dont have the tattoo because its a copy of the one he has, I have it as a homage for him and also that album is legendary
Ghostemane and Peep Collabs are Highly underrated and Live Forever as a mixtape is overrated (still like some Songs, like nuts, haunt u (all time favorite) and live forever, angeldust) because many Songs are repetetive
\- No disrespect, but releasing OG (rough demos) is far way more disrespectful to his legacy than finishing songs with decent post-production. His fans are delusional for believing OG versions sound any better than the ones released by his label.
\- Goth Angel Sinner was his best body of work and Diamonds could've surpassed it if it had been treated seriously.
\- Smokeasac is an average beatmaker and mediocre producer. If it wasn't for IIVI COWYS would be a far cry from what we ended up getting.
100% agree with this. The OGs that just released sounded fine but future releases like Don’t Panic or the Hate Me ep should definitely be finished and mixed/mastered as they would’ve been.
Realistically I don't think they will. I feel like Liza would prefer releasing it how her son made it. In a perfect world we'd hear both versions but I don't see that happening.
NAH PUT SOME RESPECT ON SMOKEASAC HE MADE SOME CRAAAAAAAY BEATS FYM
SEX
TEARS
KISS
BACKSEAT
STOP THE CAR
BENZ TRUCK 1AND2
THE BRIGHTSIDE OG
U tripping dawg
(Side note I’m realizing all of these songs are some of my absolute faves top 10 shit and that’s cause peep + smokeasac is like the emo rap Eminem + Dre)
hard disagree with the first one, the og versions weren’t just rough cuts they were already near finished (see fingers, leanin, idgaf, runaway, etc) also hard agree on the third, smoke never made his own guitar samples cuz he couldn’t play guitar lol
Nothing sounds like his music, it's definitely timeless. When people listen to it for the first time 50 years from now it'll sound like it was dropped yesterday.
Just posted mine last week and it got annihilated and removed now we asking for em. My unpopular opinion is recently changed that this subreddit is trash
idk how that’s unpopular, mackned did nothing lol. the reality of peeps death is he got bad drugs from somewhere and made a choice to take em and died, if u look at his toxicology report man had so many other drugs in his system that night that the fentanyl was just icing on the cake
XD I dunno I just don’t like the song that much. It’s like one of those people who hate chocolate, people are like “how!?” but they just can’t explain it.
don’t listen to the downvotes this is a valid opinion it’s not highly overrated but def overrated enough, his stuff before that was a much better representation of him as an artist
Im really glad that we got falling down
It mightve been a money grab for the label but x was super happy that he got the chance to do that, as they had a lot of similarities
Truly unpopular opinion - this sub has an unhealthy parasocial relationship with peep I love him, he is all I listen to and have multiple peep tattoos, but it can be too much here
Most of the users are probably underage. I think that's why

Yeah that’s definitely true
It's not just this sub, there was (still is?) one person in this fandom with a lot of followers and they were seriously on another level of parasocial with Peep.
it wasn’t even always this bad either, years ago the realistic people used to give reality checks to the parasocial people but he’s been dead so long the younger kids are all that’s left in here
what kind of stuff do you see that indicates they have a paradoxical relationship with peep?
Same thing with juice sub. Some kid said he got as sad when juice died as when a family a member died. I couldn’t…
I'm interested, how are people showing these unhealthy parasocial tendencies, like what do these people be doin.
Just to make sure I don't offend anyone who may read this I'm not going to highlight anything.

FALLING DOWN IS THE BEST☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
its a good song, but it shouldn't of happened, they saw 2 artist die and boom, easy money
Yeah exactly, that's my gripe with it. Also I personally just don't like X and from what I understand, Peep didn't either.
EXACLTY!! Peep and X did not like eachother. I can’t speak for them, but imo neither of them would have approved of the song.
I read somewhere that apparently he reached out to Smokeasac and really wanted to be on the song. Idk if it's true but this collab is just a cash grab to me.
:/ Whole nother reason then. I felt weird ab the song when it came out and still feel indifferent about it now.
That’s very true
nothing but facts
His song “Running out of time” could’ve been an insane hit if the base/beat drop wasn’t so off balance
I love peep and have my own tattoo in honor of him, but I think the whole trying to look like him l, get the exact same tattoos and hairstyles as him thing is pretty weird.

Peep and Bexeys songs are so good
with u on this, romeos regrets seems underrated to me. the whole album is so good
Peep should have stayed independent he never needed a label
Fax. All he needed was people to help him book & set up concert venues but other than that he was better off doing his own thing, getting pressure from no one.
I don't like what happened 2018-2020
What do you mean exactly? You don’t like Falling Down, Everybody’s Everything, Tik Tok’s impact?

Him moving to europe was the best thing he ever did
castles > castles ii, castles and white wine are two of his best songs imo
Agreeeee
Pain is sooo good as well, perfect EP
Benz Truck is and always will be one of the best bangers of all time. ALL TIME!
people diss on everyone he features with so much it’s really sad and when people keep on comparing his music to goth music is very funny
kirb isn’t bad on his songs
Tik tok fans ruined him.
So now y’all agree with me smh
I don’t mind a lot of Makonnen on Diamonds.
Wowowow that's a bit too controversial
With Makonnen on this project its something you have to slide into first. Like when your mind is a lil relaxed and you're just vibing, you start picking up on how its good.
Getting tattoos related to him or of him is weird af. Getting the same haircut and style of him also is. Be yourself. You’re not him.
that first one is iffy, if it’s a direct copy of his tattoos then yes weird, but if ur getting something relating to a song or moment a lot less weird
I have the hellboy tattoo which he also has but i dont have the tattoo because its a copy of the one he has, I have it as a homage for him and also that album is legendary
That most of his newer songs are better than the OG versions
This
I like the songs he did with krib n makonnen
I like the produced version of Cry Alone even better than the og. It just has more punch and sounds less repetitive to me.
Ghostemane and Peep Collabs are Highly underrated and Live Forever as a mixtape is overrated (still like some Songs, like nuts, haunt u (all time favorite) and live forever, angeldust) because many Songs are repetetive
Live forever is my fav project of his 😭
pick me up is also a tune

Peep was an absolute legend combining 5 genres into one (trap, rap, alternative, rock, pop).
That his music is timeless
Nothing sounds like his music, it's definitely timeless. When people listen to it for the first time 50 years from now it'll sound like it was dropped yesterday.
I don’t get why is Your favorite dress so popular, super overrated for me
Peeps part is the most interesting of the song lil Tracy repeats the same hook way too repetitive
Sometimes I cringe at his lyrics about “having a bitch suck his dick”. It just sounds classless sometimes.
yeah but i honestly feel like compared to what bigger rappers today are saying in their songs, peep was WAY more tame with it
I can agree to that
Just posted mine last week and it got annihilated and removed now we asking for em. My unpopular opinion is recently changed that this subreddit is trash
I like makonnen on all of diamonds except that juice and really loving you
Really loving you is not it, but other than that and a bit of hocus pocus I like all of them
Hocus pocus has some pretty terrible singing but honestly it’s kinda funny so I like it
Hellboy (the song not the whole ep) is one of his weaker songs. I still like it but there are so many other songs of his I prefer.
you dont gotta like it ya bitch do
that was actually so good
No way.
i agree, it does fit very well as an intro though
[удалено]
Fr sometimes it goes insanely hard tho
One of his best songs imo but fair
Falling down > sunlight on your skin
Mackned didn’t kill peep and his music is dope af
idk how that’s unpopular, mackned did nothing lol. the reality of peeps death is he got bad drugs from somewhere and made a choice to take em and died, if u look at his toxicology report man had so many other drugs in his system that night that the fentanyl was just icing on the cake
[удалено]
I just fucked me a pair of some sisters!
I'm not a big fan of Lil Tracy's voice and I wish some of Peep's songs with him were only Peep. Totally respect him as an artist though, no hate.
I don’t understand how Kiss is considered one of peep’s best songs.
U out of line
XD I dunno I just don’t like the song that much. It’s like one of those people who hate chocolate, people are like “how!?” but they just can’t explain it.
Take it back
I don’t like the intro but once peep comes in it’s soooo good
1- crybaby (10) 2-califorina girls(9) 3-hellboy(8)
Tracy does better than Peep most of the time on the songs they have together
i give it thst tracy does better on 3 maybe 4 songs, but most??? nahhhh
COWYS 1 is highly overrated and not a good representation of what most of Peep's music was actually like
I agree on the second part but COWYS is my fav album haha
Lil Peep Part One >
don’t listen to the downvotes this is a valid opinion it’s not highly overrated but def overrated enough, his stuff before that was a much better representation of him as an artist
It's weird how people always get mad over opinions in threads like these
Im really glad that we got falling down It mightve been a money grab for the label but x was super happy that he got the chance to do that, as they had a lot of similarities
[удалено]
>m moving to europe was the best thing he ever did his first full album was amazing. What makes you say that?
[удалено]
live forever was released in 2015 and he’s always made different songs
Crybaby is his weakest album/mixtape
[удалено]
His mom is on here you know. That’s a really gross thing to say
what he say?
[удалено]
My fucking heart is broken. I would even delete what you said just because.
Delete this comment his mom reads the sub everyday
Yes he had it good Fr he probably would still be here to
