He continued his rant, expressing his disillusionment with the industry’s power dynamics: “CLOSE THE DOORS ALL YOU WANT, WON’T CHANGE THE FACT THAT I KNOW THE PERSON YOU ARE, AND I WILL NEVER RESPECT YOU OR KISS YOUR ASS. I’M ONE KID THAT WON’T KISS YOUR ASS OR BUY YOUR BULLSHIT. I’D RATHER QUIT THAN KISS YOUR ASS. YOU ARE SO SCARED OF WHAT I CAN BECOME WITHOUT YOU. THIS JUST SHOWED ME YOU ARE A DIZZY GROOTMAN.”
Adding to his grievances, Sir Trill pointed out a case of apparent imitation: “I JUST REALISED YOU EVEN MADE THE SAME SONG LOL. SAME SONG TITLE. YOU’RE SCARED I’M HIM 4 YOU. SCARED I CAN BE A BETTER YOU ONE DAY.”
