Nickelback, Chris Brown, and other stars scored $200 million in taxpayer funds meant to keep arts groups afloat during the pandemic. They won't say what they did with the money.
KoRn being on there as well as slipknot was unexpected, but Post Malone is surprising because i always read what a nice person he is. Nice people don’t receive taxpayer money they don’t need. This article made the program read like thinly veiled wealth redistribution from the needy to the already incredibly rich. Helping a few of those honestly in need being incidental. Sigh.
The truth is none of these people "did" anything. They have managers and teams of folks who handle their livelihoods in their name. I bet the majority of artists named by the article are just finding out about it today.
So no, Posty probably didn't have anything personally to do with this, but he caught the check. Same with Chris Brown and the rest.
Was about to say that while I don't listen to posty.. he seemed like a genuinely cool dude and was worried he's gonna be one of those too good to be true sort of deals
Oh this editor knew what the hell they were doing here.

For the record, this also involved Post Malone, Melissa Ethridge, Smashing Pumpkins, and many many others. But let's focus of the two names that inspire the most hate.
