i’m in! i’m hoping his new look and disposition are a result of a high commitment level performance art leading to a mocumentary and not drug psychosis. sadly, i am leaning toward a drug related reason.
Emily I doubt that can be true given that Leaf “Joaquin” Phoenix’s brother River literally died in his arms. If that does not give a reason why he should not do drugs, then he’s psycho.
Not a good idea! This reeks of desperation of all involved!
At any given moment, Casey is going to pop out of a trash can wearing a trucker hat cuz we just got punked!!

The whole thing it bizarre beyond words! How can he be anything but another K-Fed? I predict that he “un-retires” and returns to acting before the decade is out.
I would be more encouraging if he didn’t look and sound like a drunk, babbling homeless man.
I think this is a case of a man totally absorbed by his own ego… like when Garth Brooks had that alter-ego guy and turned his own house into a museum dedicated to himself. But… I’d still probably watch the documentary.
This sh*t will be gold with Heart Collapse producing. It won’t be like that mainstream crap… dont believe me, cop his myspace songs. pure heat!

I see a lot of the comments about this so-called change. Hip-Hop isn’t some mock-filled art form. I’m an artist, and I don’t take lightly to the perception of Hip-Hop by these bloggers. We aren’t drug-induced, sex-crazed, gangsters who slap women, drink forty-ounces, sip liquor, and smoke weed! One says it doesn’t take a degree to be a rapper. It doesn’t take a degree to be judgemental and stereotypical either. Shows me what you think about our art form.

Shouldn’t he have a website or a myspace account? I’ve looked everywhere for some of this music and haven’t found anything but terrible live footage. Why would anyone go to a show having never heard the music. I don’t care if Jesus Christ played the House of Blues if I can’t hear His jams before the show I’m not going.
