Scarlxrd is getting ready to reach that next level in his career, that’s why he’s opening up so much -> (no mask, doing interviews again, cutting his hair) - it’s a beautiful transformation. The bad thing is he’s kind of killing the *mystery* aspect of his image, but at the end of the day it’s all about doing what’s right for you.

[@hamzaa8383]

Facts but I think that destroying the mystery around him will actually help him out

So true blacky but scarlxrd is still going to be an amazing artist with a mask or no mask but the mask did set him apart from other artists but what ever makes him happy will make me happy 🤘🏻🤘🏻
