Goodbye, Viper
Honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was actually him who did this, he gives off pretty weird old man vibes.
It was always a treat to see the Viper videos about every political event but I didn't really actively watch the videos so whatever lol.

And sticki (owner of Dismiss Yourself, and also help found outsider) deleted one of Viper's most popular body of work (One Day You'll See Me Again (1997-2009)) from DY's YouTube channel and Bandcamp, the album is still avaible on ktt2 and Viper's own channel, but it's a neutered release, and the main source of traction is gone

This kinda sucks to lose though I always thought having his actual songs up was nice for anyone who wanted to see if he actually made anything but he doesn't deserve the tribute now I guess.

That poor woman probably had to listen to him perform and release +300 albums during her time in captivity. Is there a definitive number of his releases?

I mean, I support separating the art from the artist. You can enjoy his music and still admit he's a piece of shit.

I'm sorta on the fence about it. He's apparently an ex-con and was a drug dealer/user, so he's not just some studio gangster or some shit.

On the one hand, innocent until proven guilty, fair trial etc. etc. On the other hand, ex-con, drug dealer/user and this isn't just some average Twitter cancellation, he has indeed been arrested by law enforcement and the accusations are quite detailed.

Even if this is true I doubt he'll be able to bounce back, this is a lot of damage done to brand and image.

Yeah, the guy handling his record label/merch/online communities is now selling off all remaining merchandise without giving Viper a dime, closing the label and cutting off all contact, gonna be pretty hard to bounce back from that alone.

He was the true disciple of Sun Ra this whole time. See you in Saturn, Biker. You'll cowards don't even believe in Saturn.

Rough Simmons (The brand that Viper was ripping off and using to scam people) posted this 2 images to their Instagram stories yesterday

It's funny cause they offered the highest quality merch of his and the dude was just using them to scam people

Viper looks bad AF. Goodbye Viper.... He aint no coward tho

I don't even like his music, so i'm rooting for him rotting.

So, I found this FAQ of him written by Kettle, that explains some of Viper's antics throughout the years.

I found this old video that shows some of his older antics, maybe even ones that kettle might have not known about, hard to know

They even had some posts on their twitter about their experience with kettle, Viper's discord server and the man himself, but they deleted it for whatever reason.
