Picture

Would it be ok to add a picture of Russ for this page? I feel like it would be easier for people to find the page when they put Russ in the wiki search bar thanks! Colemardesich (talk) 07:09, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Add a Controversy Section?

In the list of singles.. "First One" is missing.. where he raps about his first love! That needs to be added asap — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.39.67.186 (talk) 14:02, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm wondering if it's time to add a controversy section to Russ' page. He's had a number of controversies surrounding his appearance on Everyday Struggle on September 8th of this year, where he had a confrontational attitude towards host and showrunner Nadedska Alexis, due to what he felt was a "snub", as he had emailed Alexis, asking to be on the show when it started in March. Alexis replied to the email, saying "the guys aren't entertaining too many guests right now" providing proof on the episode after he had claimed he was never given a response. Russ has also caused numerous controversies on social media. After rising rap star Lil Peep's death in November 2017, Russ went on a tirade on Twitter expressing his distate for drug use in the industry. Despite overwhelming negative feedback from numerous key industry players and fans alike, Russ has yet to apologize for his words or actions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.11.20.188 (talk) 17:30, 10 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- No, I don't think any of those incidents are serious enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia article, thanks Atlantic306 (talk) 19:47, 10 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Russ wasn't even targeting a specific person with that shirt. He is against hard drugs. Is that even bad? This-is-plaridel (talk) 03:43, 11 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Section move proposal

I propose that the section "Discography" be moved to Russ discography because it takes up a large enough portion of the article to warrant having its own article. Aitch & Aitch Aitch (talk) 20:48, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I support the move. He has an extensive list (14 albums!), and I've seen discography pages made with much less. --Divine618 (talk) 14:21, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support Only logical. AshMusique (talk) 23:37, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
