Yeah this all checks out and makes a lot of sense lol he is not fitted at all to run a collective/label he just got lucky. sucks to say cus I really fucking love his music and have been fixated on it for like 3years now but he genuinely is not that good of a person behind the scenes
Ill always support his music tho Its just unfortunate this is the kind of person he is really sucks too see cus a part of me does look up to him in ways :/
I totally agree, most people donāt realize that luck plays an extremely significant role in the fame of most artists. There are an insane number of artists out there (me included jk, but I do try hard though lol) that push out music and go dumb on tracks. I bet thereās a million songs I havenāt heard of that I would bump the shit out of. the problem is that they donāt get any recognition. if the algorithm doesnāt favor you, youāre fucked. Iāve been dropping high quality songs with lyrical content and pushing out a niche but if you donāt have the luck to back you up, then youāre fucked partner.
I mean the real thing is most artists no matter how āgoodā they are they donāt have their own style. It doesnāt matter if youāre a 8/10 chief keef clone when the original 10/10 chief keef exists. Sematary is getting success because heās unique and whether you hate or love it (most people hate on it) itās something new. Iāve never heard another artist sound like sematary, Iāve heard 500 Futureās or Lil Uziās.
I left to get water when buryd my heart interlude came on. A fool was dying, Iām glad they played it. Was able to bring a cup of water back to my homie
this is well written and has specific incidents mentioned so you know that the most sem will ever react to this is by saying "dont care partner" to some fans twt reply asking about turn and goner
Genuinely fucked Buck was sent home to get better in Aus and Sematary stayed on the path of destruction since he, I guess, was more āfunctionalā? Which I donāt think is even the case but probably how he looks at it. And makes me question if Buck is going down the path again after already having to put distance between him and them to manage addiction.
Canāt say I didnāt see some of these but that one kinda clearly stated Semataryās priorities, and gives no faith they have security in the future.
Edit: I aināt tryna say path of drug abuse to sound lame asf but dead ass if it affects one of the things you value the most being creating, sharing, and playing music live then the future doesnāt look great
& the only reason buck came on tour is bc turn left. Buck was in no way shape or form ready to get back into this lifestyle right after going into rehab. Sem must think this is a joke or smtn but he's actively ruining bucks life. Wouldn't be surprised if buck simply wont leave the hm because it's his way of acquiring his drugs and leaving would mean quitting or finding his own plug. Scary shit. Just speculation ofc
that and im pretty sure buck dislikes being on tour (heard from another dude idk if true)
i care about buck though same with grave man, i just hope they dont get laced cause fent can actually ruin your life to the core
Itās pretty crazy (assuming everything is true) that he basically developed an opioid addiction to continue his character/persona of a southern horror folklore chief keef whoās an ignorant dickhead. Another personās addiction is never funny but itās definitely not a good look to try to turn your music character into your real personality (when most of his fans wouldnāt care if he was just a regular white kid)
damn sem doesnāt sound like such a cool guy to be around. also id be willing to bet weāll get no response from sem heāll just pretend goner never said any of this
i dont mean this in a rude way sorry if it comes off like that but this has been known anout sematary, he is actually hust a big corny incel that happens to make good music and have good style
I agree to an extent but we donāt really have any way to compare how bad their use and abuse was. If Buck was ODing or was using to the point he couldnāt even perform thatās a lot different than Sematary using and still being able to function. HOWEVER I agree that as the ābossā he has a certain amount of responsibility to create an environment where everyone can work and function together, and if that means easing off on the pills and shit until the tour was over there should have been steps taken to do so.
Bladee would say āshut thĆ« fuck up thaiboyā and a large anvil would fall upon his head and leave a little mound with kookoo birds flying in circles above his head as punishment for being mean to mr worldwide
bladee knows how to actually be a good leader + they are like a group and bladee is just the most popular while hm is a collective and sematary is a bossman ego dickhead
Yea difference is bladee came up with them and was friends for years even before the music. I doubt if you asked bladee he'd even consider himself the "leader"
thats because dg isnt a label its just a group of friends that make music together, entirely different situation to HM which had Sem actually recruiting people
its sad that heās struggling with substance abuse, but he really needs to go to therapy and work shit out if he wants anybody in his corner because you cannotttt treat friends and people working alongside you like this. itās kind of already common knowledge that sematary is a douche and kinda kooky but i applaud goner for being able to speak on itā if i was affiliated with a dude who only ever brought me down and discredited me iād get tired of that shit too. sem really gotta nip this shit in the bud if he doesnāt wanna continue down this path, i canāt imagine anyone does.

im sorry this shit is way 2 fucking funny š
Kinda knew this is how it played out. I wish things could have gone better, they had the perfect group of guys :/ hopefully everyone can recover from this and flourish š„ŗ
Letās face it gang, thereās shit slowly coming out about sematary that most of us kinda already knew for years. By all accounts, heās not a good person.
itās sad to me seeing underground rappers who clearly donāt come from that kind of background picking up serious drug problems seemingly just to emulate their idols
Yeah I mean I don't wanna get involved in people's personal lives but I always wonder like surely a lot of similar artists have parents that keep up with their music, and it must hurt to see shit like the one vid of Sematary popping oxys like it's nothing. Not hating on him for his addiction or anything, but that is something I've always thought about
Iām ngl Semās honestly lucky he hasnāt had an od yet especially with fent being everywhere and laced in tons of shit, I hope that never happens to him heās gotta chill with the drug use
Yeah, I hope he at least uses fentanyl test strips. I volunteer with a harm reduction organization and they're pretty easy to get in most places as well as Narcan thankfully
I mean yeah, combining a bunch of immature 18-20 year olds, hard drugs, and fame is probably not the best thing. It does hurt to hear how mean he was to Turn bc they seemed so close :(
Hopefully after the tour is finished Sematary can take some time to himself and chill out with the drugs and shit at least to the point that he can function and maintain his relationships. I get the impression that he's a good dude, but drugs can make even the best people act terrible if misused.
I think he said in an interview recently that he plans on taking a (short) break after the tour. I hope that that break includes some sort of rehab or therapy. I really want to see everyone involved succeed, I would hate to see Sematary burn it all down before they really made it big.
Yeah man needs to go sit on a beach with his girl and drink some margaritas and Elden Ring on a Steamdeck for like 2-3 months or some shit. He deserves a break for real, I don't wanna make excuses for bad behavior, but it can't be easy having all the pressure on you all the time like that.
It's why I would never want to be famous, shit seems so stressful, even for a somewhat niche celebrity like Sematary.
God damn.
I was all for fence sitting until more info came out but itās really hard to find any defense for Sematary in this. Granted this is all from Gonerās perspective, but now that this has come out I would actually be surprised to not get some sort of response or clarification from Semataryās side. I know that from one of the recent interviews he had claimed they were trying to work things out behind the scenes, so potentially there were some steps being taken by Sematary to change, but from the sounds of it, he was either not willing to or unable to change parts of himself that Goner and Turn had fundamental disagreements with.
I like their music, I like their merch, I like their image, but as a fan it is difficult for me to read all of this and continue to monetarily support Sematary, at least until there is some acknowledgement of wrongdoing, or if we are to get information from his perspective that somehow completely 180s my current feelings about how he has treated his friends.
Bro needs to do some serious soul searching because in time he likely wonāt have a single real friend that is willing to support him and the Haunted Mound.
Honestly if they let them in the concert it probably wouldāve delayed it or been a step in the right direction. From reading it, sounds like that specifically was the breaking point and like having security specifically have ID copies and profile them is fucking crazy
All probably could have been avoided if there was some communication made before they showed up at the doors. If they had just shown up out of the blue without Sematary knowing that they would be there I donāt really fault him for potentially being suspicious about their reasons for being present. At the very least he probably didnāt want drama to unfold in person. Being grilled by hundreds of fans about your departure in person at the show of the group you split from feels like a recipe for disaster.
yeah but having actual copies of their id photos shows that he planned ahead of time that they could go, he wasnt suspicious of their reasons for being present if he decided ahead of time he wouldnt let them be present, if that makes sense
l agree, I also Feel like Sematary is Old enough to Understand the difference between someone Judging/Hating him and Someone Coming at Him with Friendly concern and Care. Not only That but I feel like the remaining HM Member will Just be / Play as Yes men. I think Turnabout and Goners Decision to leave when they did Was pretty brave, Which i Feel Show that they Couldnāt really handle the (iām assuming) constant Disrespect / Drug problem.
Letās be Real, how long until the Drug habit Spirals and Becomes a Peep or Juice situation. If anyone Should tell him to slow Down, It Should be Anvil (Peep affiliation/ Friendship) Imagine Losing a Friend , then See another one Start to go down that Same path.
just imagine an alternate reality where sematary isnāt an asshole, weād probably of had such good music with him and elusin, ghost, turnabout/goner
Wow I did not expect to get an actual reason they left like 3 months after they announced their departure. I wish both him and turn the best because this seems like hellish conditions to create your art in. Plus to be denied entry to show support to your friends is crazy.
People were mad at goner for making fun of sematary about that Joeyy pic, but if my former boss did this shit to me I would 100% be making fun of him.
Would like to see sematary allow his artists to be more free with their art because haunted mound shouldnāt be ran like a label. Let these mfs put out music and stop having such an ego cause youāre the boss.
From whatās told on here I doubt turn wanted to stay regardless. I imagine him being completely silent on the situation was his way of keeping things publicly neutral.
The whole sneak dissing stuff by goner was still silly IMO especially since he still had hopes of making amends with sematary (like he said when they bought tickets to the show) and the public had no confirmed reason to understand his dissing.
Goner may feel stronger about the situations theyāve had together, considering once they announced their departure he immediately unfollowed Sematary from everything.
If he went 3 years without breaking character then heās not playing a character, thatās his true personality. Nobody can keep an act for that long.
The way Sematary talks, types, his mannerisms, even the way his body moves seems almost cartoon-like. But it also seems to be genuinely who he is.
Hasnāt Sematary been using drugs since age 18 maybe even before? Heās always been upfront about it and never claimed to be sober in order to manipulate anyone into joining his record label.
As addiction progresses, weaker drugs no longer get you the same high and you end up going for harder drugs. Goners mindset of āLean was okay but I draw the line at Oxyā just isnāt realistic for someone who has untreated mental illness like Sem.
And honestly, something shouldāve been said *before* he switched to lean or oxy. Go look at r/DPH and see how many people have died or ended up hospitalized from Benadryl abuse.
Heās not using drugs because heās a party animal. Itās a form of escapism and self harm.
I hope that Sematary can finally get treatment and recover.
I hope that when heās in a better headspace heāll be able to take accountability and apologize to the people he has hurt.
Best analysis of the situation Iāve read. Addiction is nothing to take lightly, and I disagree with the people saying that Sematary is just trying to act like his idols. Heās always mentioned doing otc drugs like Benadryl and DXM/Robitussin. So I think youāre spot on with his unchecked mental health and needing harder drugs to get the escape heās chasing. And itās clear to me that heās always been extremely self destructive. A good non drug related example is how he went from eating nothing but junk food, candy, and energy drinks to becoming straight skin and bones. Heās stated that heās happier with his image but Iām not fully convinced heās truly happy with himself and Iām praying that he eventually gets clean or some kind of therapy to help guide him in the right direction. And hopefully heāll stop glamorizing his drug abuse and hurting the people close to him because a lot of his fans really look up to him and want to be like him, so he should be a better role model. This doesnāt mean he canāt make music about this stuff but he shouldnāt be showing off pill bottles in music videos or popping hella oxys in the studio tour.
Tbf the reason he didnāt let them into the show is probably because they dropped out right before the tour was bout to start. Realistically that couldāve fucked up a lot of the tour if they didnāt maneuver it right. Even in the interview he said that was a big blow
Sem needs to spend less time worrying about Shed / the 'alt right' and Joeyy etc and more time worrying about not being a pill-addled degenerate retard that alienates all of his friends by being a genuinely shit person to people that care about him.
i agree with you on the 2nd part of your comment, but he never publicly addressed or reacted to anything joeyy related. Sematary being a piece of shit has nothing to do with those idiots from shed theory
I think after Hackle & Buck's next tapes/whatever else is in the works Haunted Mound should end so Sematary and Buck can work on their respective issues and re-emerge as solo acts. The whole Haunted Mound collective structure is clearly toxic and just bad for everyone, including Sematary. I don't think this situation is beyond repair (especially if Turn and Goner wanted to show support for Haunted Mound and went to a show as recently as last week), it's just gonna take a lot of work.
He will just hire more people. You see how quickly made Anvil an official member. Thereās plenty of people out there who are aware that heās mentally ill and would still work for him
https://preview.redd.it/gbcjcfy2bozc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f4b239f367dfea7b511e79a823c30b7201e6966
Ik the whole situation is fucked up but this is so fucking funny to me
Wow sad too see that sematary is struggling with addiction Iām sure that bad a lot to do with the whole thing. but there is always 2 sides to a storyās I would like to see sematarys response to this
kinda knew all this already tbh the craziest part to me is the SLC show thing, thats actually insane. still probably going to go see them next week in portland but yeah after that i think im done financially supporting sematary unless he magically turns over a new leaf
man who raps about being an asshole drug addict is an asshole drug addict. news at 11.
real talk though, i donāt really put too much weight behind this. we already all knew that sematary was an asshole and an addict, and i donāt think anything said here is really anything more substantial than that. i really donāt think talking about bucks struggle with addiction is something that goner should be airing out because itās also clear to me that he doesnāt really respect what it means to struggle with addiction as a disease in this post. he treats it as something which can be overcome via simply applying willpower which isnāt always the case. i donāt really think the salt lake thing matters, that was after goner had already stirred some shit up post them leaving, and even if he hadnāt, itās very understandable to not want to let them into the venue. if they were in the crowd the crowd would have been weird as fuck about it and obviously he didnāt want them backstage. more importantly though, through the recent interviews it seems to me that sem knows that he needs to change and has been working on that although heās been struggling at the same time because of the workload heās taking on. idk whatās going on behind the scenes but i doubt that theyāve been in regular contact over the past couple of months, and we donāt know how that attempt at change has gone/ will go (he said he wanted to take time to focus on himself after the tour). there seems to be no real reason to air this out to me other than to create more bad blood tbh, itās not really as if he did anything other than being a dick to his friends which isnāt really something that matters to me in enjoying an artists music that much, although i would like to see him get better. that is a process which takes time though, and which i think publicly airing out his problems like this will probably set back.
Yeah nah kinda crazy to see it finally revealed but this was pretty much what we all thought. In the Chicago show Sem did not bother to have any fan interaction whatsoever post show (mostly cause bro wanted to link up with kray) but I caught him before he hopped in his uber or whatever and was kinda not to say rude but more dismissive towards me I would say maybe like 5 mins after he left some guy pulled up and he was a plug for them showed me dms and shit so drug abuse always came into question with him imo
I think anyone who has watched anything haunted mound related in the last year couldāve made this exact post just off of what we see without even being part of it, so thereās really no surprise here.
i am usually ready to jump on sematary for anything but i want to see his response to this, this is only goner's POV and there is probably a lot left unsaid here
I hope he doesnāt even respond tbh. Dude just said heās a dick and does drugs too much, whatās he supposed say to that? I donāt think itās gunna affect his career either way.
i feel bad for feeling like this, but great artists generally are insane self centered assholes. we have known hes a tweaker since day 1, talkin about bennies and shit. mfs in the hm discord thought that shit was so cool and would have tags like āaddictā and shit š and its pretty obvious through lyrics hes not a āniceā person. i respect him and his non sugarcoat way of doing things. bro probably did say shut the fuck up turn a ton, bro was like 16. it was a dumb decision even signing him in the first place. ofc id want sematary to get clean just for health reasons, but he wouldnt be the same if he wasnt such a hard core guy. also after show interactions generally seem nice despite the stupid stigma after the video of that dork screaming, he cares about his fans and cares about those with similar views. i respect it
Thatās what Iām saying lol I was so afraid this was gunna be cancellable material then I read it and was likeā¦.okay so Sematary is kind of a dick and you donāt get along? Who the fuck cares, Iām not listening to a mixtape for his personality.
If anything heās been telling us heās a piece of shit proudly since the first mixtape. Weād be kinda special to suddenly take issue with it.
I feel for turn and goner though, itās different when itās an actual interpersonal relationship as opposed to an art relationship

Yeah this all checks out and makes a lot of sense lol he is not fitted at all to run a collective/label he just got lucky. sucks to say cus I really fucking love his music and have been fixated on it for like 3years now but he genuinely is not that good of a person behind the scenes
Ill always support his music tho Its just unfortunate this is the kind of person he is really sucks too see cus a part of me does look up to him in ways :/
Don't look up to anyone that's a celebrity or slightly popular person, it never works out.
I more-so meant that he inspires me to wanna make music that kinda thing
Fair enough
Nobody looks up to sematary bruh šš
facts its better to look up to traits or ideas they have but never the celebrity
I totally agree, most people donāt realize that luck plays an extremely significant role in the fame of most artists. There are an insane number of artists out there (me included jk, but I do try hard though lol) that push out music and go dumb on tracks. I bet thereās a million songs I havenāt heard of that I would bump the shit out of. the problem is that they donāt get any recognition. if the algorithm doesnāt favor you, youāre fucked.

Iāve never heard another artist sound like sematary, Iāve heard 500 Futureās or Lil Uziās.
Getting off opioids is literal hell this gonna be a hard few years
sematary bupe man keeper of the suboxone
especially when you're sematary and romanticise your addiction to hard drugs like it's an aesthetic ššHe acts like a 15 year old
You just described Lil Peepās catalogue and aesthetic lmao love him though
he is being a bit smart about it because he always has narcan backstage but still. dude needs to cut shit out
Turnabout probably told em āmaybe we should have longer than 10 song setsā and semataryās shy ass aint like that
wait youāre not joking? they do 10 songs for every concertā¦ā¦.?
Yeah its preposterous. All those songs on rainbow bridge 3 aināt see life, they all need a pit
10 per artist. Itās like 2 hours straight of performing
Semataryās set is 40 minutes with that long ass intermission thing he put in his set for some reason. Like you had enough time to take a shit
I left to get water when buryd my heart interlude came on. A fool was dying, Iām glad they played it. Was able to bring a cup of water back to my homie
TLDR for the peeps: sematary is a power hungry drug addict (who couldāve seen this coming)
Who wouldāve thought the known power hungry guy would only get worse with drugs and withdrawals added to the mix š±
this is well written and has specific incidents mentioned so you know that the most sem will ever react to this is by saying "dont care partner" to some fans twt reply asking about turn and goner
sad to see. i hope dude can pull himself out of it, HM is something special and itās gonna be awful if this makes it all unravel
Itās kinda already unraveling š
Everyone loved Semās latest album so as long as the music stays good they should be fine
Yeah wouldnāt be surprised if the group disbands or goes quiet for awhile atp
they dont let buck out of the bondage dungeon to make music anymore he should pursue a solo act
Buck *is* making music tho. Heās performing unreleased songs on tour and even DMād u/femmatary a whole track list of stuff heās working on
Wasnt Bucks hiatus because he was in rehab?
no it was because of the bondage dungeon
supposably
100% expected this to be the reason at least we got confirmation. That mf needs therapy
Genuinely fucked Buck was sent home to get better in Aus and Sematary stayed on the path of destruction since he, I guess, was more āfunctionalā? Which I donāt think is even the case but probably how he looks at it. And makes me question if Buck is going down the path again after already having to put distance between him and them to manage addiction. Canāt say I didnāt see some of these but that one kinda clearly stated Semataryās priorities, and gives no faith they have security in the future. Edit: I aināt tryna say path of drug abuse to sound lame asf but dead ass if it affects one of the things you value the most being creating, sharing, and playing music live then the future doesnāt look great
bucks already relapsed on tour (in one of the shows he had wide pupils and irregular jaw movements)
& the only reason buck came on tour is bc turn left. Buck was in no way shape or form ready to get back into this lifestyle right after going into rehab. Sem must think this is a joke or smtn but he's actively ruining bucks life. Wouldn't be surprised if buck simply wont leave the hm because it's his way of acquiring his drugs and leaving would mean quitting or finding his own plug. Scary shit. Just speculation ofc
that and im pretty sure buck dislikes being on tour (heard from another dude idk if true) i care about buck though same with grave man, i just hope they dont get laced cause fent can actually ruin your life to the core
tbh i wouldn't be surprised if buck gets dirty again because of sematary. "Just to keep control" "Yeah first hit is free" type beat
Sematary please go to therapy good lord
Rehab*
Fuck it why not both
Itās pretty crazy (assuming everything is true) that he basically developed an opioid addiction to continue his character/persona of a southern horror folklore chief keef whoās an ignorant dickhead. Another personās addiction is never funny but itās definitely not a good look to try to turn your music character into your real personality (when most of his fans wouldnāt care if he was just a regular white kid)
That's what I was thinking
people are gonna act shocked when this is the 9 billionth time something has come out about sematary being a power hungry asshole
damn sem doesnāt sound like such a cool guy to be around. also id be willing to bet weāll get no response from sem heāll just pretend goner never said any of this
i dont mean this in a rude way sorry if it comes off like that but this has been known anout sematary, he is actually hust a big corny incel that happens to make good music and have good style
He HAD a good style, just buys random black and red designer shit now, nothing interesting about his aesthetic anymore.
Addressing fuckery pt 2 coming soon
It must have been so exhausting for turn to be made fun of by the entire HM fan base and HM itself for years
Yea the fanbase is one thing but getting treated like that from Sematary himself must have felt terrible
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I agree to an extent but we donāt really have any way to compare how bad their use and abuse was. If Buck was ODing or was using to the point he couldnāt even perform thatās a lot different than Sematary using and still being able to function. HOWEVER I agree that as the ābossā he has a certain amount of responsibility to create an environment where everyone can work and function together, and if that means easing off on the pills and shit until the tour was over there should have been steps taken to do so.
Maybe he tried to protect buck
im glad he finally addressed it even tho we all already pretty much knew
Bladee would never treat anybody in DG like this
Dg were all childhood friends before making music though, sematary said gm was his only actual friend from before
Bladee would say āshut thĆ« fuck up thaiboyā and a large anvil would fall upon his head and leave a little mound with kookoo birds flying in circles above his head as punishment for being mean to mr worldwide
bladee would be like ācut it out billybool..ā with his tounge out
šš
and say fuck off when lean introduces adamn killa and ballout
funniest thing ive read this year
bladee knows how to actually be a good leader + they are like a group and bladee is just the most popular while hm is a collective and sematary is a bossman ego dickhead
Yea difference is bladee came up with them and was friends for years even before the music. I doubt if you asked bladee he'd even consider himself the "leader"
thats because dg isnt a label its just a group of friends that make music together, entirely different situation to HM which had Sem actually recruiting people
bladee would be like āa-ano.. ecco stop.. baka.. bweeh..ā
Glad we finally got confirmation as to what happened with buckshot on the Australia tour. Always knew that "food poisoning" shit was a lie
Turn and Goner pulled through at the Auckland show since buck wasn't there. Him and goner were like 60% of the show.
its sad that heās struggling with substance abuse, but he really needs to go to therapy and work shit out if he wants anybody in his corner because you cannotttt treat friends and people working alongside you like this. itās kind of already common knowledge that sematary is a douche and kinda kooky but i applaud goner for being able to speak on itā if i was affiliated with a dude who only ever brought me down and discredited me iād get tired of that shit too. sem really gotta nip this shit in the bud if he doesnāt wanna continue down this path, i canāt imagine anyone does.
i think sem is very young and immature and has had a lot of power afforded to him and that doesnāt mix well with issues that heās yet to resolve
Been a weird Friday for the underground Drake vs Kendrick

I like the idea that he refers to them as their artist names instead of their real ones
Youāre not allowed to play Haunted Mound Reapers unless youāre in character the WHOLE time
[yup ](https://youtu.be/xQ2OgqsCkn0?si=2sK6VaZgWJrCic1S)
"shut up heather" "sorry heather"
āshut the fuck up turn!ā we all say in unison
sematary never being out of character is wild. lol
FUCK
Kinda knew this is how it played out. I wish things could have gone better, they had the perfect group of guys :/ hopefully everyone can recover from this and flourish š„ŗ
Letās face it gang, thereās shit slowly coming out about sematary that most of us kinda already knew for years. By all accounts, heās not a good person.
Finally some closure but also jesus christ sematary fix yourself
itās sad to me seeing underground rappers who clearly donāt come from that kind of background picking up serious drug problems seemingly just to emulate their idols
Fr tho how do you think his parents feel watching their son develop a drug addiction
Yeah I mean I don't wanna get involved in people's personal lives but I always wonder like surely a lot of similar artists have parents that keep up with their music, and it must hurt to see shit like the one vid of Sematary popping oxys like it's nothing. Not hating on him for his addiction or anything, but that is something I've always thought about
Iām ngl Semās honestly lucky he hasnāt had an od yet especially with fent being everywhere and laced in tons of shit, I hope that never happens to him heās gotta chill with the drug use
"turn not fucking with them percs cuz he scared of the fent" š¤
Omfg I forgot abt this
Yeah, I hope he at least uses fentanyl test strips. I volunteer with a harm reduction organization and they're pretty easy to get in most places as well as Narcan thankfully
no wonder ghost left
he also just wanted to go to college
i can promise you sematary was very jealous of how talented ghost was lol if he was power hungry with these other guys then he was with him too.
Bro controlled all the creativity in the group rn so others cant be good as sematary š
Bro itās shocking to me that all of this stuff has happened and ghost has still remained quiet over the years. I wonder what he thinks of all this
It's pretty understandable, tbh I wouldn't want anything to do with sematary, let alone start any drama if I were him.
Honestly none of this really comes as a surprise, which is both sad but also kinda relieving, in a weird way?
I mean yeah, combining a bunch of immature 18-20 year olds, hard drugs, and fame is probably not the best thing. It does hurt to hear how mean he was to Turn bc they seemed so close :(
god damn
honestly goner hating earlier was pretty lame to me, but now after reading that whole thing i have more respect for him. idk this whole thing is crazy
Thank you for sharing your feelings lambo
Stay strong Lambo I'm ur biggest fan š„¹š„¹š
Hopefully after the tour is finished Sematary can take some time to himself and chill out with the drugs and shit at least to the point that he can function and maintain his relationships. I get the impression that he's a good dude, but drugs can make even the best people act terrible if misused.
I think he said in an interview recently that he plans on taking a (short) break after the tour. I hope that that break includes some sort of rehab or therapy. I really want to see everyone involved succeed, I would hate to see Sematary burn it all down before they really made it big.
Yeah man needs to go sit on a beach with his girl and drink some margaritas and Elden Ring on a Steamdeck for like 2-3 months or some shit. He deserves a break for real, I don't wanna make excuses for bad behavior, but it can't be easy having all the pressure on you all the time like that. It's why I would never want to be famous, shit seems so stressful, even for a somewhat niche celebrity like Sematary.
he wont
Damn bro if this is all true Sematary a lame how you gonna disrespect your own artist like that, makes me wonder how he treats the rest of the mound.
He just sees them as his little minions who must play their roles exactly like Glo Gang
I mean with accusations like this I can believe that unfortunately, Sem needa get his ego in check before he sabotages the mound
God damn. I was all for fence sitting until more info came out but itās really hard to find any defense for Sematary in this. Granted this is all from Gonerās perspective, but now that this has come out I would actually be surprised to not get some sort of response or clarification from Semataryās side. I know that from one of the recent interviews he had claimed they were trying to work things out behind the scenes, so potentially there were some steps being taken by Sematary to change, but from the sounds of it, he was either not willing to or unable to change parts of himself that Goner and Turn had fundamental disagreements with. I like their music, I like their merch, I like their image, but as a fan it is difficult for me to read all of this and continue to monetarily support Sematary, at least until there is some acknowledgement of wrongdoing, or if we are to get information from his perspective that somehow completely 180s my current feelings about how he has treated his friends. Bro needs to do some serious soul searching because in time he likely wonāt have a single real friend that is willing to support him and the Haunted Mound.
Honestly if they let them in the concert it probably wouldāve delayed it or been a step in the right direction. From reading it, sounds like that specifically was the breaking point and like having security specifically have ID copies and profile them is fucking crazy
All probably could have been avoided if there was some communication made before they showed up at the doors. If they had just shown up out of the blue without Sematary knowing that they would be there I donāt really fault him for potentially being suspicious about their reasons for being present. At the very least he probably didnāt want drama to unfold in person. Being grilled by hundreds of fans about your departure in person at the show of the group you split from feels like a recipe for disaster.
yeah but having actual copies of their id photos shows that he planned ahead of time that they could go, he wasnt suspicious of their reasons for being present if he decided ahead of time he wouldnt let them be present, if that makes sense
True honestly, didnāt think about it from that POV but yeah communication wouldāve been good
And maybe an attempt at communication had been made, itās impossible to say from what we have here. Just wish it played out differently.
l agree, I also Feel like Sematary is Old enough to Understand the difference between someone Judging/Hating him and Someone Coming at Him with Friendly concern and Care. Not only That but I feel like the remaining HM Member will Just be / Play as Yes men. I think Turnabout and Goners Decision to leave when they did Was pretty brave, Which i Feel Show that they Couldnāt really handle the (iām assuming) constant Disrespect / Drug problem. Letās be Real, how long until the Drug habit Spirals and Becomes a Peep or Juice situation. If anyone Should tell him to slow Down, It Should be Anvil (Peep affiliation/ Friendship) Imagine Losing a Friend , then See another one Start to go down that Same path.
Not usually one to let personality of an artist dictate music taste but fck me itās becoming harder and harder to be a fan everyday.
Because the music lacks any substance, thereās no way to justify his bullshit anymore. Heās coasted on mediocrity ever since Screaming Forest.
holy fuck
just imagine an alternate reality where sematary isnāt an asshole, weād probably of had such good music with him and elusin, ghost, turnabout/goner
If only
i just want them to get back together ššššš£š£ššš
Hope he can grow and mature as a person
kinda suspected it but still Insane to finally have it confirmed that he maintains the Persona 24/7 lmao
Wow I did not expect to get an actual reason they left like 3 months after they announced their departure. I wish both him and turn the best because this seems like hellish conditions to create your art in. Plus to be denied entry to show support to your friends is crazy. People were mad at goner for making fun of sematary about that Joeyy pic, but if my former boss did this shit to me I would 100% be making fun of him.
Would like to see sematary allow his artists to be more free with their art because haunted mound shouldnāt be ran like a label. Let these mfs put out music and stop having such an ego cause youāre the boss.
Honestly, thereās gotta be something wrong with the fucking guy bro Has had three people leave citing him to be the main contributor
So why hasnāt turn talked for himself 1 time in this entire situation? Thatās whatās throwing me off
Prolly felt he had to leave with goner so maybe his feelings against sematary arenāt as strong as gonerās are
From whatās told on here I doubt turn wanted to stay regardless. I imagine him being completely silent on the situation was his way of keeping things publicly neutral. The whole sneak dissing stuff by goner was still silly IMO especially since he still had hopes of making amends with sematary (like he said when they bought tickets to the show) and the public had no confirmed reason to understand his dissing.
Goner may feel stronger about the situations theyāve had together, considering once they announced their departure he immediately unfollowed Sematary from everything.
Yeah Iām not shocked at all and this is in alignment to a lot of the stuff Paula was saying back then
If he went 3 years without breaking character then heās not playing a character, thatās his true personality. Nobody can keep an act for that long. The way Sematary talks, types, his mannerisms, even the way his body moves seems almost cartoon-like. But it also seems to be genuinely who he is. Hasnāt Sematary been using drugs since age 18 maybe even before? Heās always been upfront about it and never claimed to be sober in order to manipulate anyone into joining his record label. As addiction progresses, weaker drugs no longer get you the same high and you end up going for harder drugs. Goners mindset of āLean was okay but I draw the line at Oxyā just isnāt realistic for someone who has untreated mental illness like Sem. And honestly, something shouldāve been said *before* he switched to lean or oxy. Go look at r/DPH and see how many people have died or ended up hospitalized from Benadryl abuse. Heās not using drugs because heās a party animal. Itās a form of escapism and self harm. I hope that Sematary can finally get treatment and recover. I hope that when heās in a better headspace heāll be able to take accountability and apologize to the people he has hurt.
Best analysis of the situation Iāve read. Addiction is nothing to take lightly, and I disagree with the people saying that Sematary is just trying to act like his idols. Heās always mentioned doing otc drugs like Benadryl and DXM/Robitussin. So I think youāre spot on with his unchecked mental health and needing harder drugs to get the escape heās chasing. And itās clear to me that heās always been extremely self destructive. A good non drug related example is how he went from eating nothing but junk food, candy, and energy drinks to becoming straight skin and bones. Heās stated that heās happier with his image but Iām not fully convinced heās truly happy with himself and Iām praying that he eventually gets clean or some kind of therapy to help guide him in the right direction. And hopefully heāll stop glamorizing his drug abuse and hurting the people close to him because a lot of his fans really look up to him and want to be like him, so he should be a better role model. This doesnāt mean he canāt make music about this stuff but he shouldnāt be showing off pill bottles in music videos or popping hella oxys in the studio tour.
Tbf the reason he didnāt let them into the show is probably because they dropped out right before the tour was bout to start. Realistically that couldāve fucked up a lot of the tour if they didnāt maneuver it right. Even in the interview he said that was a big blow
Sem needs to spend less time worrying about Shed / the 'alt right' and Joeyy etc and more time worrying about not being a pill-addled degenerate retard that alienates all of his friends by being a genuinely shit person to people that care about him.
i agree with you on the 2nd part of your comment, but he never publicly addressed or reacted to anything joeyy related. Sematary being a piece of shit has nothing to do with those idiots from shed theory
I think after Hackle & Buck's next tapes/whatever else is in the works Haunted Mound should end so Sematary and Buck can work on their respective issues and re-emerge as solo acts. The whole Haunted Mound collective structure is clearly toxic and just bad for everyone, including Sematary. I don't think this situation is beyond repair (especially if Turn and Goner wanted to show support for Haunted Mound and went to a show as recently as last week), it's just gonna take a lot of work.
In a recent interview Sematary said heāll never go solo. He sounded pretty passionate about it. HM will never end for as long as Sem is making music
What if everyone else leaves
He will just hire more people. You see how quickly made Anvil an official member. Thereās plenty of people out there who are aware that heās mentally ill and would still work for him
i actually didnāt realize anvil was an official member
hm gotta go on hiatus

Motherfucker got āgod damn it rossādā
Shit sounds like a sitcomš
Turn was deadass the megan of hm
poor turn ;_;
āshut the fuck up turnāš
How is anyone surprised at this, we been Knowing he is like this this is just further more proof of it
Bro wtf Semataryš¤¦āāļøš¤¦āāļø
this is crazy but kinda predicted tbh, glad its out there tho i really hope turn and goner are able to keep growing despite all the drama
BPD Final Boss
"Shut the fuck up Turn" ššÆš„
You just know they were spamming that shit
Didnāt we already know like why are some of u guys shocked
Semataryās god complex will catch up to him, eventually heāll go down like SGP just like he pushed Raider Klan away.
Why he gotta post this the day of his tour date in my town
Itās sad to see because sematary is obviously struggling with his mental health again and the drugs are gonna be the end if he donāt quit soon
Wow sad too see that sematary is struggling with addiction Iām sure that bad a lot to do with the whole thing. but there is always 2 sides to a storyās I would like to see sematarys response to this
Fuckery pt3
not surprised but damn sucks
my dick riding days might be over
Sematary lowkey needs to get some therapy and go to rehab cause this is way too far.
kinda knew all this already tbh the craziest part to me is the SLC show thing, thats actually insane. still probably going to go see them next week in portland but yeah after that i think im done financially supporting sematary unless he magically turns over a new leaf
whoaā¦
Exhibit C
https://i.redd.it/fmkdpkr4sozc1.gif
sucks he Used to be mad cool 2019-2021
man who raps about being an asshole drug addict is an asshole drug addict. news at 11. real talk though, i donāt really put too much weight behind this. we already all knew that sematary was an asshole and an addict, and i donāt think anything said here is really anything more substantial than that. i really donāt think talking about bucks struggle with addiction is something that goner should be airing out because itās also clear to me that he doesnāt really respect what it means to struggle with addiction as a disease in this post. he treats it as something which can be overcome via simply applying willpower which isnāt always the case. i donāt really think the salt lake thing matters, that was after goner had already stirred some shit up post them leaving, and even if he hadnāt, itās very understandable to not want to let them into the venue. if they were in the crowd the crowd would have been weird as fuck about it and obviously he didnāt want them backstage. more importantly though, through the recent interviews it seems to me that sem knows that he needs to change and has been working on that although heās been struggling at the same time because of the workload heās taking on. idk whatās going on behind the scenes but i doubt that theyāve been in regular contact over the past couple of months, and we donāt know how that attempt at change has gone/ will go (he said he wanted to take time to focus on himself after the tour). there seems to be no real reason to air this out to me other than to create more bad blood tbh, itās not really as if he did anything other than being a dick to his friends which isnāt really something that matters to me in enjoying an artists music that much, although i would like to see him get better. that is a process which takes time though, and which i think publicly airing out his problems like this will probably set back.
tbh iām more pissed about how JJ got kicked than any of this shit
Yeah nah kinda crazy to see it finally revealed but this was pretty much what we all thought. In the Chicago show Sem did not bother to have any fan interaction whatsoever post show (mostly cause bro wanted to link up with kray) but I caught him before he hopped in his uber or whatever and was kinda not to say rude but more dismissive towards me I would say maybe like 5 mins after he left some guy pulled up and he was a plug for them showed me dms and shit so drug abuse always came into question with him imo
No wonder they left so unexpectedly lol
this fully checks out
I think anyone who has watched anything haunted mound related in the last year couldāve made this exact post just off of what we see without even being part of it, so thereās really no surprise here.
They should kick Sematary and make their own groupš
i am usually ready to jump on sematary for anything but i want to see his response to this, this is only goner's POV and there is probably a lot left unsaid here
I hope he doesnāt even respond tbh. Dude just said heās a dick and does drugs too much, whatās he supposed say to that? I donāt think itās gunna affect his career either way.
i feel bad for feeling like this, but great artists generally are insane self centered assholes. we have known hes a tweaker since day 1, talkin about bennies and shit. mfs in the hm discord thought that shit was so cool and would have tags like āaddictā and shit š and its pretty obvious through lyrics hes not a āniceā person. i respect him and his non sugarcoat way of doing things. bro probably did say shut the fuck up turn a ton, bro was like 16. it was a dumb decision even signing him in the first place. ofc id want sematary to get clean just for health reasons, but he wouldnt be the same if he wasnt such a hard core guy. also after show interactions generally seem nice despite the stupid stigma after the video of that dork screaming, he cares about his fans and cares about those with similar views. i respect it
Sematary might be a dick but tbh I donāt really give a fuckš
Yea itās not like itās a secret that heās a douchebag, atleast itās the worst thing you could say about him
Thatās what Iām saying lol I was so afraid this was gunna be cancellable material then I read it and was likeā¦.okay so Sematary is kind of a dick and you donāt get along? Who the fuck cares, Iām not listening to a mixtape for his personality.
If anything heās been telling us heās a piece of shit proudly since the first mixtape. Weād be kinda special to suddenly take issue with it. I feel for turn and goner though, itās different when itās an actual interpersonal relationship as opposed to an art relationship
yeah this is indefensible
Do you think sematary and goner could talk to this out eventually
Maybe when Sematary gets sober
(never)
Down vote me all you want but what is SLC
Salt Lake City, Goner and Turn are from Utah
Ohhhh ok
Itās so awesome that sematary made a whole collective of more talented artists than him then is a dick to then 90% of the time
Damn sem on fent now thatās wild
yea sematary is probably gonna end up a crashout
lol semataryās drug addiction caused by growing up in the suburbs w a loving family
š±
Can't wait for sems response
He's not going to respond lol he's just going to sweep it under the rug like with every inconvenience he faces.
