[@jroe7085]

you could tell amerr was nervous but he took his time to answer the questions well

[@inm42]

True, but due to the history of family and personal issues he's also a little self-absorbed... From the get-go with questions about sexual assault and emotional abuse, he doesn't express sympathy or understanding for the women but focuses on how crushed he felt and how he wanted to make himself a better person. It's mature and admirable but there's not a strong sense of empathy for negatively affecting other people

[@BRobMint]

This is great. So glad that Ameer doesn’t have any hatred towards the boys and him and Kevin still talk. I hope everyone involved can fully heal one day. RIP to his pops and sister

I felt my heart ache when I realized that Ameer still knows all his lyrics and probably his former band mates lyrics by heart as well.

[@Brigister]

when he recited his whole SWAMP verse I was almost tearing up bro, no joke, I was like... "shit, this really is the same guy who was goofing around in BH and making all those amazing songs with his best friends". it just doesn't compute to me and I almost want to separate the two in my head because it seems nearly impossible that someone's life can change so drastically and that he could lose all of his friends and career in a hearbeat like that. shit's fucked up, honestly. for all parties involved, and especially for him.

I respect this dude. It's hard to admit your wrongdoings when you've a spotlight directed towards you, specially nowadays considering how the internet allows people to completely lynch others for their mistakes. I believe he still has a lot to learn. And I do understand the damage that he did to those victims. However I don't think its productive for anybody to not allow him to move on. At the end of the day, Whether we admit it or not, we all did our fair share of stuff that we are not proud of in our lives. I'm in no place to tell the victims how they should deal with this, but from my experience i can tell that honesty, empathy and forgiveness are the only way to heal.

[@davidkennedy2589]

Remember Dom's verse on "Dearly Departed?" If the stuff Dom says in that verse is true, then Ameer is lying in this interview. Ameer keeps saying he's not trying to mend his relationships with other BH members because "those guys knew me the whole time," but Dom claims that Ameer had something to do with his friend getting robbed early in the band's existence, and that Ameer didn't tell him about this until the abuse allegations came out, which was after the entire Saturation trilogy blew up. One of them has to be lying about whether or not Ameer was honest with his band-mates.

[@DatNarutoFan]

They were trying to make it look like that to Ameer, but his removal was inevitable. No one just says "you need to take a break" obviously the group was gonna develop w/o him in that break period so he obviously wasn't buying that bullshit. The reason why he left first is because no one wanted to talk about it. Its like your employer saying "we're gonna have to let you go" instead of "you're fired", you're obviously going to want to quit at that point

The peak quality of the fan base was during and shortly after the saturation trilogy. It felt so good being a part of the hype behind this group that was making amazing music, with members that bring different things to the group, not knowing 100 percent everyone that actually made a part of it, sort of had a mystery to it. The music was what brought everyone together to wanna follow this group. Then after all the ameer stuff happened, all these teenagers just started bandwagoning on the group and the fanbase just became almost the hip hop equivalent of kpop fans. Their behavior and how they "stan" is cringe at times. Whether they just wanted to support brockhampton after the accusations and removal of ameer, Kevin being openly gay, or liking the new music, it just didn't feel the same tbh. .It was gonna happen eventually but the SAT trilogy was peak fan base days.

[@realdirtydantv5584]

Lexi G we all need to get better as a society cancel culture getting outta hand and most of it is from assumptions Wise words from my mentor The word Assume makes a Ass- outta u- me

[@Itsalii_xoxo]

I’m proud of Ameer for taking accountability for his actions and taking the right steps to heal. I only wish the best for him and for him to keep thriving ❣️

[@dylandunlap8118]

This guy is just a normal guy. He had some issues internally and has since dealt with them. Who can’t say that?

[@WerewolfofEpicness]

he had borderline personality disorder

[@zazabroom]

Dylan Dunlap exactly

[@isabellabello]

he abused women and had relations with underage fans bruh

[@cordellboss]

Brockhampton needed therapy as well that's why they have shi labeouf as a mentor.

[@marconavarro7752]

Immortal Vegan uhhhh lmfao ok

[@celedhion]

I don't know much about Shia LeBeouf's personal life. But he isn't a therapist. "Friday Therapy" may be an open group-talk session, but it's not therapy. I've always been a little irked with how obsessed with fame Kevin is, and how his "therapy" session has to be headed by an actor, and all the attendees have to be involved with Hollywood industry in one way or another.

that’s so funny they really are buds with shia

@@gasolineandwine what happened

[@lianadeleon4816]

i really admire ameer’s honesty and his ability of being so open about talking about bh. some people run away from their mistakes and problems but ameer had the courage to address and acknowledge what he did and i really admire the fact that he still respects bh even after the pain that they caused. it wasnt easy for any of them. lets all remember that. ameer is cancelled by many bh stans now but we need to acknowledge what was happening on ameer’s side. he knew what he did wrong, he apologized. ameer is a person with a kind heart and i applaud him for being that.

[@Howtoeatrocks]

If he hadn't have been cancelled do you think he'd have taken the time to reflect

[@TheCommonCore]

Anakie Maybe one day he might have, as an older adult. But most likely not as a young man b/c he would have never been held accountable

[@licoricelaces4205]

You could look at his lyrics, it looked like he already was trying to be better

[@Howtoeatrocks]

[@ossie549goblin3]

saturation II is the best brock album because ameer had one of the most prevalent roles, the fact that the rest of the group don’t speak to him is real sad and i miss him man

[@marshallentertainmentinc]

Amazing Interview! That is how it's done! Sway didn't hold back but he wasn't judgemental, nor did it sound like he was attacking him. Really loved Amers honesty in this vid! Truly believe he's going to help someone with his testimonial. Wish him the best 🙏🏾✊🏾 Great way to start my day

[@MileikaJaime]

This is crazy to hear because I was front row at Boston Calling for their set and just seeing how emotional the group all got on stage to the point that they broke down in tears and had to cancel the rest of the tour says a lot. A lot went on behind the scenes that fans don’t know about (including me), and we may not ever get the full story but I personally feel that sometimes the effects of cancel culture can also be just as toxic as the behaviors it doesn’t condone. I’m glad Ameer is working on himself and I appreciate knowing a little more of what happened that day from his perspective as a lot of fans have felt confused and let down since that day and of course when the whole situation unfolded and caused a huge divide. Thank you Sway for being a great interviewer and approaching these topics with grace and respecting the rest of the boys while giving Ameer a platform to give his side of the story. I hope everyone’s healing and moving forward in a positive direction.

How do you deal with yours?

[@stopcryingalready]

Jonathan Wilder I said the same exact thing

[@danny_case]

Not really fair to make him reflect on such heavy shit and then ask him to spit BARS right after.

[@zazabroom]

Ameer was one of the strongest voices in BH. Also, love how he’s owning up to his mistakes. I’ve been there. I can really see his growth and him wanting to grow. Good on you, Ameer.

[@vinnyseed1142]

Mad respect to Ameer for answering these questions so calm and collected

[@sackofdebris]

it makes me happy that ameer still remembered his whole SWAMP verse :)

[@j_lklap468]

Who didn’t 😌🤘

[@KingLulzington]

This was intense and I’m so happy this is out. Been waiting for his forever and I’m rooting for him.

[@muhruki]

This is just a great interview, straight up. Not a lot people with this kind of history are given chances to speak on such a large public platform

[@SevenUpHub]

I agree with him. If my friends of 10 years told me to handle my mental issues alone instead of supporting me because their paycheck was in jeopardy, I wouldn't want to come back to them and ask for forgiveness either. As a friend of someone for that long, the least you can do is support the person and help them into rehab or something like that instead of having a manager deliver the bad news that you're not performing or in the group anymore. Fuck em as far as I'm concerned. He's better off moving on to better things with new friends if that's how little they cared about his mental health.

[@ayteen5880]

I really want brockhampton to see this and be like oh ok now he's more mature

[@jarheadz96]

From interviews, it seems like he's more mature than them now

[@SOBEKCrocodileGod]

Kevin’s been talking to him

[@deadeyedblack2350]

BUMBO THE CLOWN yeah, also if you peep Instagram you see that merlyn, kevin, bearface, and Matt all have been on and off following ameer on Instagram. I know parts of them still lowkey want him back into the group, or at least to have a relationship with him. Idk about dom tho

[@skrtreynolds]

Rockwood .escapeplan Dom is primarily the one who will seemingly never forgive Ameer and from what’s been said that’s pretty understandable. That being said, Kevin, Matt, Merlyn and a few others were longtime friends of Ameer’s and it probably hurts them to lose connection with such a beloved figure in their lives so suddenly. I’m not speaking for them in any way but I can imagine it hurts them in some way to see him so disconnected from their circle of friends and I’d assume they’d at least attempt some sort of form of connection that they formerly had. Ameer looks like he’s grown from his experiences and seems genuinely remorseful over his past actions and seems like he’s wants to change from what he was in the past, and there’s a chance that some BH boys have noticed this and want to have at least a shade of compassion for a former great friend of theirs.

[@Kemoclout]

Prod. Cyber as long as they’re friends i’ll be ok but he’ll never be in the group again unfortunately

[@DashCo52]

Man humble af for being honest about freestyles. Last of a dying breed.

[@danq_]

I respect that he's genuinely making an effort to change and improve as a person. Also the fact that he is willing to admit and accept his own faults.

[@manninanni]

we appreciate a person who works on growing and changing. seeing the problem then working on it. we cant get stuck in the pattern.

[@guilhermme5280]

thought he was going to try and defend himself all through this interview with the first things he said... man, I feel so happy he got better, it is so cool to see him mature so much. Thank you Ameer for being so honest.

[@sofa5011]

I've actually gained so much respect for this man for speaking about all his therapy process and stuff thank you so much. Seriously man

[@thetajchannel1107]

Great interview Ameer was my favorite artist in BH and once he was removed i never got the same vibe from Brockhampton even though Ginger was still Dope. I’m glad Ameer seeked help and is standing in his truth! Very rare you see young artist do this.

[@woahsarah]

you can definitely see he’s matured and grown as a person to improve and fix his mistakes. i’m glad he owns up to it and just wants things to be better again, rather than letting his past decisions define who he is, and make him a bad person. you can see how much he’s grown from this and i’m glad he’s back in touch with the boys.
