Slaves - My Soul Is Empty And Full Of White Girls (Music Video)

jonny has been my favorite artist for well over a decade and it absolutely crushes me to see his legacy vs where he’s at now.

Yeah... Its kinda absurd to think about that a drug addict with so much struggles delivered the best projects of its genre, and some of the best projects of music as a whole. Dude is pure talent

[@shoot646]

He’s been a sober for over a year. Fingers crossed it stays that way

[@Prof.Pwnalot]

Addiction never leaves you. Can only imagine, same thing with Anthony Green and plenty of other influential musicians / comedians. Takes 100 times the amount of strength and energy to actively go out of your way to not resort back to the addiction. Takes half a breath to fall back in the trap. Comes down to how much you want it, and coping mechanisms as you do life without substance. Also the perspective on life / outlook mentally. Need to keep yourself grounded. Hard drugs are hard habits to break. "Old habits die hard"

[@MrLkun91]

Slaves turned into one of my favourite bands in the last month. Stop judging it by its singer. The man sure made his mistakes...But we're all human. Just enjoy the great album they released. Keep it up lads!

I wanna get out, I wanna get out I'm sick of giving in to these demons I wanna get out, I wanna get out I'm sick of giving in to these demons With eyes wide open, all I see is the dark Another hit, another mark A small pinch and my whole world starts to spark If I had another chance, I can't say what I'd do The minds a tricky thing when it comes to the loss of you Sometimes I hear her cries, silence is the dirtiest trick in life If I'm so empty, then why do I feel alive? Let's go back for the last time, when you breathe you lie Pretty thing keep your mouth closed, and those legs tangled close Dear shame, are you forever? I'll never know what it's like to keep my head from spinning I'll carry the flame for you, I'll carry the weight for you In that moment I don't need to think twice, the end of a shattered life. Sometimes I hear her cries, silence is the dirtiest trick in life If I'm so empty, then why do I feel alive? Let's go back for the last time, when you breathe you lie Pretty thing keep your mouth closed, and those legs tangled close I feel her body break under the weight My selfish lies, selfish lies, I can't do it any other way Sometimes I hear her cries, I hear her cries Under, under, under the weight of my love Sometimes I hear her cries, silence is the dirtiest trick in life If I'm so empty, then why do I feel alive?

People will never understand Jonny if they never dealt with addiction. I met him when I was 14 at warped me and my friend walked out the wrong entrance and ended up in the lot with all the bands buses he was FUCKED UP standing by himself like he was waiting for us and told us to hop on a bus and live our life and head to the next town and party and to this day I still wish I did fuck what the Consequences would have been would have been worth it but what he said resonated with me and I battled addiction myself but Jonny really is a good person inside we talked for 15-20 mins also met the lead volcalist from miss may I he was working out outside his bud they had a whole gym setup almost what a cool experience I love to tell people about it cause it’s once in a lifetime thing

You can't just blame addiction for him being a huge asshole and a predator. There's plenty of addicts that are better people.

Lmao I know

[@CFroe]

the perspective of those stuck in addiction...hmm this song helps to replenish my ability to have compassion for those stuck in heavy addiction, including my ex. sometimes they do really shitty things, but even though they lie and act selfish and cold, they're still human with real human emotions that get lost in their own pain and chaos. here's a prayer or 2 for those who are fighting crippling addiction to see that there is hope to "get out". Props to jonny craig for being real about the fight.

[@sugabb]

Jonny's voice is like smooth butter.. But at the same time, it's so beautifully raspy. If he were to go on the voice or something he'd definitely go far. Srsly he'd get the recognition he deserves.

[@NsiderCustomrobo13]

He did try out for The Voice, but they said he was "too controversial" for the show or something like that if I remember correctly. Probably because of his drug habit. It's a shame though, because he is super talented and has a great voice. twitter.com/jonnycraig4L/status/316382935076966401 Although, they probably would have locked him into some awful contract or something if he did make it. I'm glad he still puts out post-hardcore/rock stuff. I wouldn't want to hear a country or pop Jonny Craig. Tyler Carter on the other hand though...

[@tylerroerick6357]

***** It wouldn't be for drugs, it would be for his laptop scandal.

I relate so strongly to the lyrics in this song. "I wanna get out, I'm sick of giving in to these demons." "With eyes wide open, all I see, is, the dark, another hit another mark, a small pinch and my whole world starts to spark, if I had another chance I can't say what, I'd do" And then the whole chorus. Love this song. And it has definitely helped me get past my demons and addictions. Thank you slaves and Jonny Craig for putting my thoughts into this beautiful masterpiece!

[@brittanybustos9776]

This song will never get old for me and it hits home every time. He gets what's it's like to be in love with your drug of choice and wanting to change/trying to change but keeps going back because it has becomes your lover, best friend, family and friends and they only way you know how to cope. if you have never experienced substance abuse then you have no idea what i'm talking about and that's okay, it means drugs have never controlled you; however, don't judge or think your better then those who suffer from there addiction. Any person who is battling their substance abuse or trying to get clean for the 100th time and trying to stay that way. if you know anyone who is trying to get/stay clean and sober encourage them to keep going and not give up or in.

[@liana9696]

Or how your addiction can also be a person

[@akachavis]

Jonny Craig and Tyler Carter are and will ALWAYS be 2 of the top vocalist I've ever heard in my life. Even in his downfall you cannot deny the pure talent Jonny Craig has. I've never heard someone carry their voice range so effortlessly like he does especially while switching tones like he was BORN to do this! It takes alot of people years of vocal coaching to do something he does naturally. Pure talent and yet he is so underrated by the industry. I appreciate Jonny Craig for his talents and will always stay a huge fan. From the westerHALTS days when he was 14/15 years old to now in 2024.

@@QualityQman first of all unless he tied someone down and injected them with heroin then he absolutely did not "get some of them addicted to heroin", they chose that shit themselves. As far as the girlfriends go, I could never condone abuse but most I would imagine knew exactly who they were getting involved with and were at least 50% of the dysfunctional relationship and at least one of them( the animal girl) is a batshit crazy hypochondriac drama queen. If he is an unempathetic self centered person I would almost guarantee that it is a result if the heroin addiction, that's not an excuse but it sheds light on why he acts the wat he does and more than likely he has some true demons that led to his addiction and his artistic influence that makes him be able to perform on a higher level and without that you would never have heard his name so saying it is a tragedy he as a troubled person has this voice makes no sense. Most of all what really intrigues me is the fact that you believe you are so much better than him, it's obvious in the was you spoke so do not deny it, and yes maybe you have avoided drugs and troubled relationships but if you would sit down and take inventory of your life and actions you would see how much you have done wrong and hurt people, WE ALL HAVE!! I'm not condoning his actions but don't act like in one way or another we haven't all screwed the pooch and let people down, and I can guarantee you he may have helped through his music MANY MORE people than he has hurt.

[@QualityQman]

@@griffisjm You could make all those same arguments if he was a repeated pedophile. Unfortunately, there are lines that shouldn't be crossed. And yes, as a 40 year old addict and alcoholic, I can say I'm a better person than Jonny. Coming from experience, Addiction is not an excuse. I've never stolen, physically abused anyone, nor encouraged other people to be an addict with me. You can always separate the art for the artist which I always make an attempt to do, but no way can I say he is deserving of it. He was lucky to hit the genetic lottery to sing the way he can but he is not deserving of it. Most people will agree with me. A few will agree with you. All is seems you are doing is looking for ways to justify his character flaws because you soooo badly want to enjoy such a great talent from a good, deserving person. We all do. Some of us would rather not become delusional to get it. I highly recommend you do more research about him. There is a great 3 part series about the rise and fall of Jonny Craig on KZbin that I highly recommend if you are a Jonny Craig fan. Check it out. In the meantime, I'll continue to enjoy such an amazing voice with a bittersweetness as well as sense of loss of what he could have been and how much more his voice could have inspired and helped people.

Deserves it? Him being deserving or not is completely irrelevant... Talent is talent. And take a look at some of the most recognizable artists over the last few decades... If their popularity/career/album sales/success were based upon them as people being "deserving" or not would you be as aware of their music as you are now? Doubt it. 🤔 🤷‍♀️ Let's just see if we can name a few....? Elvis!? Kurt Cobain of Nirvana!? Bradley Nowell of Sublime!? Jimmy Hendrix!? Janis Joplin!? Amy Whitehouse? Whitney Houston!? Michael Jackson!?...... Please, feel free to add any that come to mind... 😒 So yes, there may be some foul words spoken in the music industry about Jonny Craig as a person and I am sure others involved have been given reasons to speak their opinions... But his personal struggles, prior mistakes or intimate relationships are not to be used against him to determine if he is "deserving" of a successful career or not! Please sit the f-ck down with that argument... 👎 Talent is talent!!

[@reztrentnor4380]

Fucking awesome track. Album is incredible, and it is so fantastic to see Jonny back on his shit. A lot of us still love you bruh, keep making music.

[@Jack-bo2hx]

Fucking comment section on this one is a mess, I have always been a fan of Jonny Craig, I personally like him the most in DGD, Slaves is great I really enjoy their album and hope the future holds even better.

[@martinfultz9894]

Whats this? Jonny Craig being the greatest vocalist of all time? Nothing new to see here

[@Bettybasilthethird]

This makes me miss seeing jc in Emarosa.

[@joshuathompson9659]

I don’t know and don’t need to know the details of Jonny’s story, but I do know that someone warped in addiction isn’t their true self. And this should be considered before offering judgement. Big fan of his music and unique voice.

[@Jukov_ev]

yes, voice his unique!

[@InkAndPoet]

Yes, his voice is VERY unique, but one thing that I noticed over time is that he's also VERY replaceable.

[@zylogami]

@@InkAndPoet he’s not replaceable lol

[@InkAndPoet]

@@zylogami all the bands he's been in have managed to maintain success to various degrees after his departure from each band. It's not like they went to shit after he left, especially Slaves. I remember more songs instantly from the Matt era than the Jonny era.

[@zylogami]

@@InkAndPoet I do agree with that but without Jonny I feel like none of them besides dgd would’ve had the same amount success they had with Jonny

[@Ash-xn8dg]

They were so great live 💛

He sounds so much better live. Like rougher. Wish we could get a studio version of it.

[@SmokeEater_]

Johnny, you need to be a contestant on The Voice

[@SmokeEater_]

***** wow, 2nd chances people. They could've made that work for them too

[@xXWinter720Xx]

Why exactly? That would've been so pointless, I'm honestly glad they didn't let him on. I would hope that he wouldnt've taken the offer, I really just don't like shows like that. And as Aaron said, Slaves may never have been created.

[@SilversteinRescue]

He wanted to but they wouldn't let him cause his background check was deemed too 'controversial' or something.

[@SmokeEater_]

I agree but I also think that he's still not as popular as obviously his voice should be... but the upside is he didn't fall into the terrible downward spiral that is the pop culture

[@legorahma]

i remember that this song exists like once a year and come back for the nostalgia
