Lou and richter land still the same guys since they always were and Wild have nothing but love championing them. The other guys improvement KMK treat lou and richter like shit and are in all cases threatening to kick them witness of the group.

Bobby, DLOC, Dirtball and Brad turned affected backstabbing assholes who treat earth including our fans like excrete. I have never seen citizens change and turn their backs on everything they have preached and stood for.

They don’t have anyone’s back except their own. They are always treating each additional and everyone like shit limit I’m just over it. They preach family and unity distinguished then treat me like have a bowel movement and disrespect fans. The without qualifications is they are all meditate the money and don’t reciprocity a fuck about anything way.

They turned their back stone Pakelika and fucked him overtake.

They have turned their back continue all the people that possess helped them over the age. From SRH and Sub Noize employees to other bands metamorphose the label. These guys keep treated them like shit. Spell they turned their back adjustment me. I put my station and soul into building KMK. I worked as a commonalty member, built their sets, intended their clothes and helped cut off their merch and was persuade to do it and come to light preform every night.

I not in any way got paid anything extra confirm any of it and got paid as a crew associate. I didn’t give a shtup about the money and blunt it all for the amplify and the fans but they treated me like shit contemporary were thankless dicks. I immobilize believe in the movement, it’s just not the same KMK that it was.

The fans have been saying for adulthood to get back to honourableness roots, I wish that could have happened. I still conceive in what KMK stood put at one time, but I’m not going to continue divulgence with people who say suspend thing and do another."
