Right? It's pretty crazy. One part of me thinks, "Oh, I;m just some old dude now, critical of teenage culture that I don't understand." Then, the rational human being steps in and thinks, "This is really sad. Not only are we glorifying vices (no big deal really, this is the legacy of pop music), but it's being produced by and targeted to kids under 18! It certainly feels like a boundary has been crossed that shouldn't be."

Geez, at least Lil Peep was in his 20s (I'm fairly certain), not that his audience was. And the adults surrounding Pump promoting, profiting, etc...quite bleak. I certainly got an education digging into the meaning of the lyrics (as you point out with the Xanax...)

lean - codeine or xanax mixed with sprite and jollyranchers served in a styro cup
red bottoms - Christian Louboutin shoes
balmains - ridiculously expensive couture
ten racks - $10,000
...and on and on into the vortex of utter hollowness :(
