[@abysses]

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.

[@terragrow440]

Hes actually been doing great for the last year or so especially

[@bb_goblin]

​@@terragrow440 shhhhhhhhhhhh don't jinx it. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Love him anyways.

[@z.startedafire]

he looks really really skinny now. he doesn't even have the baby face anymore

[@StetzMusic]

@@z.startedafirehe also is getting older. Not in a bad way

[@Braydensplaytime]

Me too 😢

[@themfatale]

This shit is so good. Welcome the fuck back Jonny. Thank God he got off of Rise and went over to Artery, am I right?

[@LilMods]

Or are you right? Haha.

[@themfatale]

Out of the choices, I'd say I'm pretty right. lol

[@sjholmes101]

He had something with DGD, the bitch just couldn't keep his shit together.

[@ZacharyBorland]

Rise had better P.R

[@themfatale]

Im not saying his stuff wasnt good that he put out through Rise, I loved it. Im saying they were the only decent things to come out of Rise lol.

[@zakburcham4738]

Man, I just hope Johnny can get through it again. So much talent, such an incredible voice, for that junk to take it away from the world

[@terragrow440]

Is something bad going on with him rn? Ive been seeing him extra active lately on IG with gigs and such

[@andrebraganza3607]

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

[@Puffley]

Daddy Craig is sober still

[@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!

[@twocansami5086]

🙏👌

[@nicktheknight5638]

joonny craige

[@Eatsoup3]

9 years later... Yeah he got a legacy of singing good but hes not heard of anymore and still a douche. Sometimes you judge books by covers, huh? Almost like...that's what the fucking cover is there for. If you radiate being a scummy junkie, then continue to act like one, why else would people read past your cover?

[@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.

[@HappinessIsAGift]

His laptop scandal was to buy drugs.. Lol

[@K1ll3rK1tt3ns]

Tyler Roerick I think it'd be a bit of both.

[@manwithouteyes]

Bands kms Country Core.

[@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.

[@ArteryRecordings]

New Music Video from Slaves (Jonny Craig)

[@Memory0fAMartyr]

YAY! Visuals to go with the Vocal Rape...Eventually all my senses can feel violated in the comfort of my home...

[@doajake1]

Why did u put johnny Craig's name in parenthesis? Since when is the singer more important then the band?

[@marcosruiz9365]

Jake Setnik well jonny tends to leave the band .. so that's why?

[@FormativeApple]

Marcos Ruiz he doesn't leave bands, he gets kicked out of them

[@marcosruiz9365]

Sam Willwerth Yeah I Just read it .. it's a shame ..

[@itsjustme1616]

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!

[@Cwolfe]

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? Let's go back for the last time, when you breathe you lie Pretty thing keep your mouth closed, and those legs tangled close

[@dallasyoda9862]

[@ridedownlow]

HANDS DOWN best song on the album. Anyone struggling with addiction can definitely relate to every word.

[@sjholmes101]

probably my favorite part about music is watching a music video and seeing that every article of clothing on everyone has a nice "Y&R" on it.

[@g0negirl_612]

Lmao I know

[@GaryTha2nd]

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

[@Kennypowers51]

No periods were hurt in the typing of this comment.

[@zekellie_]

Jonny's problems are definitely not only because of addiction...

[@slippy318]

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

[@skef2585]

If u wouldve gotten on that bus chances are u wouldve been (sexually) assaulted and/or dead from oding 💀 real talk jc is literally unsafe to be around. Be glad u didnt get on the bus

[@remnant1907]

Imagine finding out he had his gf do heroin hmmmm

[@sexysarah6285]

Yeah not so much. He has been labeled alot of thing's and having a soul is not one of them. He's a women beater, junkie, and piece of shit who likes young girl's so he can feel powerful by getting them hooked on drugs

[@noobker]

That chorus is catchy as fuck

[@najadahmer4862]

All i wanna hear for the rest of my life is Jonnys voice.. 🖤

[@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]

[@zacharyavila9224]

Glad to see Johnny Craig resurrected and away from bad habits. This vocalist has gone through major addiction issues and has managed to pull his head above water. I feel like vocally he is stronger, and I think the clear mind has given him a better balance on his career. Looking forward to hearing more from him.

3 years sober. Broke my back July 2018. 2 metal rods screwed into my spine. They gave me pain pills. Cut me off. Found the needle again. These past two weeks have been hard. I’ll get two-three days, use to stop the sickness. Then repeat. I’m struggling. I was on top. Moral of my story. Wear your fucking seatbelt. Anything can take what you have worked so hard for.

Johnny Craig has the BEST voices in this genre...the control and artistry of choosing vocal-lines in a tune is a gift so few have...I am completely blown away by this guy every song I hear....Thankyou for gracing us with your voice

[@irishcarbomb5602]

"In this genre" what genre would that be?... all he's got are clean vocals, in a genre he doesn't belong in, trying to win back fans he screwed over, which he didn't earn.

[@W1es]

@@irishcarbomb5602 IT really doesnt take anything away from his way of creating the vocals, sure, all he has is clean vocals, and you do not decide who belongs where dude, you dont own any stakes in any musicindustry, you wouldnt have time to sit here deciding where someone belongs. Yes he screwed fans over because he is a drugaddicted asshole, no doubt, but that doesnt take away how good he is at this particular thing...simple as that. Enjoy your day, or not, nobody cares about either mine or your opinion...their ours...

[@i8764theKevassitant]

​@irishcarbomb5602 damn you sound salted bro. JC likely inspired a whole generation of soulful singers. He's made some big ole mistakes but he's talented and defined the post harcore sub genre of bands with riffs and runs. Any addict you may come across have done very comparable things, likely worse. Myself included.

[@UglyFlannel]

He sounds just like the Johnny Craig who used to be in DGD and Emarosa

I see what you did there

[@ieshabrown2591]

Watching his newer videos I’m seeing just how high he was during a lot of his older videos . He is doing good now and put a bit of weight on so hopefully his handsome self holds on to that sobriety

7 strings? It's all about those 25 string guitars now.

[@anthonyhowes8125]

They may have learned on a 7 string. The first guitar i ever played was a 7 string and playing a 6 felt really weird for me the first time i played one.

[@jayg1100]

It's not the only song on the cd but actually you 100% have to be using a 7 string to play this song

[@bleekerprevails]

When people don't realize that not all the time 7 strings are used for heavy songs but are used for more dynamic ranges. Lol.

he's far from overcoming. He's still open about struggling. he does seem to be in a better place this time however.

[@tylerchapman6973]

Johnny may not exactly deserve it, but his voice needs to be heard by everyone

[@griffisjm]

And why wouldn't johnny deserve it?

[@QualityQman]

@@griffisjm He has hurt so many people in his wake. He has been abusive to just about every girlfriend he has had, he has gotten some of them addicted to heroin, and from what most of the post hardcore scene has said about him, he is just a self centered unempathetic person. The fact that such an asshole of a person was given such an amazing voice and talent is such a tragedy to the world. For me at least, it prevents me from enjoying that talent to its fullest. I still listen to it, with some guilt. It's just too good to avoid.

[@griffisjm]

@@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.

[@_Sinnamon28_]

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!!

[@kristinLFG]

"The title is about my ex, I hate her man. She would always tell me that I’m empty all the time and that I was hitting on girls all the time and all that shit. The song itself is about me overcoming my demons by quitting heroin. You’ll hear “I wanna get out, I wanna get out” quite a lot. That’s me pretty much struggling with shooting up and how long it took me to get away, and the fact that now I’m so far past that, I wanted to write a song about it. I wanted it to be subtle, but to have the undertone that I’ve overcome this struggle." - Jonny Craig

[@blornblad4381]

All due respect to Johnny and all he’s overcome, but there’s nothing subtle about the message he was trying to convey. Jeez, he starts pantomiming shooting up within the first 5 seconds of the video, Lol! In all fairness, I have no doubt that he’s a good dude, and I’m really happy for him.

He has no soul but he has white girls lol, i have no idea.

[@xM4XvPA1Nx]

The song is about his addiction to heroine. The girl represents that empty spot in his soul that he filled with the drug. At the end of the video he breaks up with the girl meaning he stopped using her (heroine).

[@Jayteeayy15]

xM4XvPA1Nx Or possibly just his ex girfriend Amanda whom he was engaged to and resembles the girl in the clip? No need to stretch things so far bro

[@ianh2527]

James Auger he makes references to heroin and even gestures too. if he were to sing about amanda, jonny would've gotten killed in the video and then she'd feel up bradley walden.

[@xM4XvPA1Nx]

James Auger yes he does make referances.

[@grdianANGL333]

That guitar at the start of the chorus and throughout it is so fucking insane. I dont think you guys understand how with the composure of the song how good this part is.

[@brawin21]

Everyone debating his career and who's still listening.. I'm trying to figure out who the woman in the video is lol

[@SlimeScholar]

Dudes been through hell. He's abused substances to cope, he's fucked people over and fucked up his credibility by ripping fans off for fake MacBooks, he's only human people before you judge the man you put yourself in his shoes.. We all have negatives and positives. He could of really just walked away from the world but he apologized and tried to make amends with the ones he did wrong .. What else can I say to get this point across .. We all screw up eventually and deserve to be allowed to try and better ourselves regardless of our past

[@csmith1758]

My best friend played this song for me to help me better understand his addiction and how he was feeling inside and I loved jonny with slaves every sense

[@genericyoutubechannel3790]

Sounds like what a third album with Emarosa would sound like

[@austinwenger6617]

Its like matty mullins and tyler Carter had a baby together.

[@MrKillah101]

matty mullins can't sing for shit live

[@austinwenger6617]

Everyone needs to stop getting so butthurt... I wasn't saying that he was stealing Tyler carters style I was just saying be reminded me of him....

bassists who needs em

[@vizima1027]

Lol,right?

[@letsgetwilly7005]

You can definitely hear a bass part. Whether it is real or produced, its there. Trust me, with out a bass, or something to give the low end, this entire genre would be done.

[@justinj8304]

holy shit, i didnt even notice!

[@gauleyguy8841]

LetsGetWilly the track was recorded with the bassist that left due to family issues. He left on mutual terms, of so I've read.

I love the name of this song and the song

[@LaurenJewel]

love jonny craig, even with his struggles, but his voice and art just fills my soul ma, i love him and wish him the best

[@holly8535]

Lauren Jewel Sadly, he’s a disgusting and abusive man and hearing the things he’s done to women makes me physically sick.

[@caitlinmoore3597]

he’s a stupid piece of shit. he doesn’t deserve any recognition, even for his mediocre voice.

[@mxxnscar]

I love white girls just as much as any other black guy in 2014 but I don't get the song title at all lol wtf does it mean really ? oh yea and that girl is hawt

[@xXAngelVenomXx]

His heroin addiction, empty soul representing the gap he couldn't fill with drugs, "full of white girls" referring to how he used drugs to try and fill that gap but couldn't fill it. the title basically says "Trying to fill the void I got from losing someone i loved with drugs, and it not working, resulting in addiction that i couldn't shake, because it was the only thing that seemed to help me" as referred to when he says "a small pinch and my whole world starts to spark. (heroine injection)" If that made any sense, that's how I interpreted it. :)

[@mxxnscar]

Angel Breeze I get where u are going with that but it still doesn't explain the white girls haha

[@xXAngelVenomXx]

White girls is a euphemism for the heroine.

[@mxxnscar]

Angel Breeze I got that but it still doesn't make sense cause heroin is brown it would make sense for the song to be called "My Soul Is Empty And Full Of African American Girls" lol this song title would make more sense if he were talking about cocaine, do u get what i'm saying ?

[@xXAngelVenomXx]

well, I don't really know too much about his drug past but there could've been more than heroine. haha

[@HappynessIamon]

I AM BLACK! STRAIGHT RAP ONLY TYPE BLACK WOMAN! I CANNOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS BAND!

he has an R&B background/influences, could be why. check out his work with Emarosa and Dance Gavin Dance as well
