Ronnie Radke

[JakeAnderson733]

I know the music thread is usually about just the music, but I figured talking about this guy would be interesting. He's a dumbass and quite a prick too, and he says enough stupid shit on the Internet to warrant some discussion on these forums.
Now, for those of you who don't listen to emo/metalcore music, Ronnie Radke was the lead singer of Escape The Fate until he got fired from the band. He started another band, Falling In Reverse, where he made three songs with butthurt responses, with "Raised By Wolves" being the most butthurt of them all. If that was all I had to say about what he's been doing with Falling In Reverse, I wouldn't have brought him up. What makes this guy interesting is that he has a particular interest in throwing microphones at his fans.

And another incident with this guy is when Oliver Sykes, the lead singer of Bring Me The Horizon, apologized for borrowing a lyric from Tyler The Creator for his T-shirt design (as he also owns a fashion label known as "Drop Dead"), Radke added his two cents and started this fight: https://24.media.tumblr.com/07dc07e5240a0cb339b35afa02dfcbc8/tumblr_mxq277O76u1rylc8bo2_500.jpg
It's pretty stupid, but I figured you'd find it funny.

So, if you have any thoughts on this, what are they?

The Twitter post is barely comprehensible even by me, really shows this guy's intelligence. And the fact that he'd intentionally hit someone in the head with a microphone makes me wonder why he has fans.

He has fans for the same reason boy bands have fans - teenage girls think that he's just the hottest guy in the world, so they idolize him... and considering how a lot of teenage girls think, they'll stick with a guy they idolize regardless of what crap they do.

Uh okay people from 2015 but it turns out he's based, wtf I love Ronnie now!

Sorry for necro'ing a dead thread, but it's genuinely entertaining to see Ronnie go after Sebastian Bach and Brent Woods.

Allegedly, Brent Woods (a 50 year old guitarist), meets up with teenagers, and Ronnie has been blasting him (alongside individuals like Eddie Trunk and Sebastian Bach, for platforming him, who he had previous beef with) on Instagram.

You left out the part were he spent a few years in prison for being at a fight/drug deal that went bad and a guy got shot to death.

He also plays up being a tough guy but only seems to beat up small teenage girls at shows.

He’s a talented singer/writer but seems he’s too much of a narcissist to stay with any band for long periods of time. Escape the Fates first album was straight fire and of course dumb dumb had to fuck it up before anything else could be released. Now they’re mediocre at best. He’s also apparently kardashain adjacent which makes for a retard imo. Surprised he doesn’t have a cow thread.

I wouldn't want to be in the same room as Radke, but he's pretty based for exposing Woods and Trunk.

Then again the entire industry is rotten, always has been.

I know nowt about Ronnie Radke, just that he features on a Metro Station song.

Ronnie radke and bob Bryar should’ve interacted on twitter and bonded over their anti tranny sentiment… why…? Cause it would’ve been funny…
