Is this the same dude that got thrown in the bushes by Justin Wong?
Not bushed, more like he was offered a bag bya company and triforce and then got out of the way so he could get it because at the time Justin was taking care of his grandmother and mother. FGC legends/figures used to try to give Justin shyt behind the scenes for associating/ being a member with the black crew. Dudes like Hsein Chang and those LA dudes from what I remember.

:damn:

Breh definitely needed help. This video + more clearly shows it. It's a shame how broken he truly was.
I finally watched it and to me, that was a full on manic episode. I knew somebody who was schizophrenic and that person would often act in the same way; they would go off the deep end and say the most bizarre, off the wall and incoherent things and act in a violent and aggressive manner. It was very scary to behold, and that Etika video gave me the same vibe. Etika had some very serious undiagnosed illnesses, and the signs were there in front of everyone's faces, but of course its easier to pass Etika's behavior off as something other than mental illness, than it is to critically analyze or empathize with him....

The wild thing is, just like that recent Black mirror episode people have already moved on and forgetten about breh

I already knew what it was back when I saw someone on twitter ask if people could think of someone who could possibly replace Etika to watch, and his first thought was Pewdiepie.

I honestly think dude got caught up in the YouTube glamor and realized he didn’t really have any legit talent and the rest is history


I know it sounds blunt and mean but you gotta call it out for what it is

Coli.
I hinted in one of my posts of a man Etika helped out, and he breaks down what he feels went down. And it's exactly what it was. Etika walking that path with that man would have done him super well for him.

gonna go through a lot of his vids later on. Y'all should shoot him a follow.

:wow: i was remembering about this guy.... its been awhile

i checked out that vid and some of those comments quoting the vid i think most of it might be true or a bit of it :wow: breh was c00ning to hard and pushing people away who were trying to tell him to chill out .... but he kept going to far.. breh in vid touched on how at one point etika was homeless and said never again does he ever want to homeless, that why he always kept doing the most so his fans kept giving him the bag.. he finally hit a breaking point.
