I read a lot that hes always late and that he recently has blown off reporters for the most part
Yes, he has blown off reporters... and why? Well, think about it... all they do is interview him about his drugs and the STP split, and then state how he is the biggest fuckup in the music industry. I wouldnt wanna talk to anyone after that shit.
I respect his decision.
And I haven't heard of him turning up late. That's not a substantiated rumour... and I'm not sure that it's a substantiated spelling of substantaiated ... or even if the word exists...
