‘Ryan Adams Dangled Success. Women Say They Paid a Price.’

Yikes.

 

Wild.

Edit: also gross.

 

Uhhhh, there is some stuff in here about him and minors that I wasn’t expecting...

 

Woof.

 

Fuck man, this is disgusting and disappointing.

 

I have a t-shirt to toss when I get home.

 

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT. WHY IS EVERY MAN A PIECE OF SHIT?

 

Because all of humanity is totally depraved, but some people get better (worse?) opportunities to explore the sick depths of that depravity?

You were the first person I thought of when I saw this news posted. I'm sorry. While the main thing that needs to be mourned over in this situation, of course, is the irreversible sexual/emotion abuse that was afflicted upon so many women, it's also a valid thing to mourn the loss of a beloved artist and the tainting of music that has meant so much to so many people. For both of these things, I feel terrible and I mourn with you. :/

 

"Mr. Adams unequivocally denies that he ever engaged in inappropriate online sexual communications with someone he knew was underage"

Yeesh.

 

Adams has always been a bit of an asshole. So I guess I'm not entirely surprised it runs deeper than just "he's mean". What a shame.

 

There's so much in here that's absolutely disgusting. What a fucking sad piece of shit he is.

 

Ugh. Terrible what they had to/are going through. What a piece of shit. Cancelling that pre-order.

 

so disappointed :(

 

And to think the media gave him credit for Phoebe Bridgers' early success. The quotes from him are just nasty.

 

he can rot

 

He speaks:

@Jason Tate, if you wanna add to the front page part

 

Apparently he tweeted that shortly before the article came out. Fucking ooof.

Fuck this dude

 

Love is hell and apparently Ryan is too.

 

His punctuation and spelling is almost as atrocious as his behavior.

 

Thanks man. I'm a bit speechless, to be honest. I never thought Ryan was "likable," per se, but I didn't think...this. A lot of time and emotion invested in his music over the past 15 years that I wish I could get back. But that's nothing to the women in this article, who literally had their spirits broken/their passion for music destroyed because this dude was a manipulative, emotionally abusive creep. Fuck that and fuck him.

 

Fuck - my most listened to artist and the reason I picked up a guitar. My best friend had his first dance at his wedding to a DRA song... ugh, I keep thinking of moments and songs that I connected with during particular times in my life... this one hurts

Edit: I clicked submit and immediately realized how selfish my post was. Obviously this is a horrible story and he's an absolute piece of shit. My comments weren't meant to diminish the actual story here... just a bit shocking is all

 

I’m probably just naive, but it still shocks me every time I see something like this. Very disappointing.

 

What fucking selfish piece of shit. Self Titled heavily inspired me to get back into guitar, so this one really pisses me off.
