>not a single news source, not even Pitchfork, reported on his death
maybe if he wasnt a rapist people might respect him more
Kinda sad but that's just how it goes I guess. You become persona non grata and then suddenly your death is a fart in the wind, with no evaluation of your art
i will show you fear in handful of dust
>>129891338literally who?
>>129892009Alex Calder. He was friends with Mac DeMarco and part of that whole scene. Got accused of rape and had his career destroyed. Last month he died.

>>129891338darn, i really enjoy reading those music news sources so much and truly care about what they’d have to say because they really are a bellweather for what is important in music…
>>129891338Does it matter? Eventually we'll all die and it'll be like this never happened to begin with LMFuckingAOI'm drunk btw
>>129892722At least he didnt have kids
Alex calder might be the bare minimum level of fame to have your music immortalized and forever be available to find in deep corners of the internet. Basically goals for us songies
>>129891338and neither did you: obituaries provide names
>>129892722looks like an obituary BUT IT'S AN AD FOR AN UPCOMING EPStay classy, USA!
>>129899700Fucking this lmaoooLife is so bleak and death only brings out the fakest people imaginable
>>129891338did he kill himself?
>>129899459They’ll gladly report on the death of some literally who jazz artist from the 50s, but ignore an artist they reviewed in the last decade who’s died unusually young.
>>129891338>no Wikipedia articlewho cares
>>129899787heart gave out in the middle of the night. likely poor lifestyle and lingering depression is my guess.
Did Mac say anything?
>>129899787Overdosed. Basically a suicide because it was brought on by terrible choices.
>>129904717Not a single thing, kinda a dick move desu.
>>129904791Give me the details on their relationship, did they have a falling out or did they go their seperate ways and mac happened to ascend to stardom afterwards?
>>129905368No I think they were still friends or at the very least, still cool with each other. Alex would be backstage at Mac's concerts whenever Mac would play in Montreal, and this was post-rapening.
>>129904791He said some words live at a concert. He isn't huge on social media
>>129905525>He said some words live at a concertsource?
>>129891338F post his songs we all gonna die, we all deserve to be listened to at least once
vaxxed?
>>129899787He got a botched penis extension and it went septic
>>129891338Holy shit. This dude really went the way of being just properly rated musically and fading away.I really liked the first release of Strange Dreams, it was perfectly depressive and dreamy. His Midlife Holiday video was fucking funny.He never looked healthy and had kind of a pathetic vibe, it really makes me curious about what could've killed him.
>>129909156>it really makes me curious about what could've killed him.he had>long covid>depression>shitty eating habits>shitty sleeping habits>years of partying and coke taken its toll,>drinking taken its toll>more depressionsurprised he lived as long as he did
>>129909267the partying and coke thing was unknown to me. long covid too.
