Late reply but yes, listen to Veteran. He’s talked about his politics in some interviews, but it’s not really all that straightforward as to say he’s some kind of principled leftist who betrayed his ideals to go hang out with a Nazi he happens to admire because of his music. His political views are really a lot more vague and he’s never really stated his allegiance to anything. Take that how you will, IMO it’s still surprising and disappointing to see him go back on what he’s said in his music to this extent but he hasn’t exactly hidden that he’s a little opportunistic.
He’s always made allusions to it, specifically calling out fascists and reactionaries including Kanye in his music. I’m so sad abt this, never expected this sort of behavior from the guy who said “you’re third reich IM STALIN”
Is he really a self-proclaimed communist? ‘Communist Slow Jams’ has very little communism in it, despite the name.
