Here we should pause and think about the distinction between Jahseh Onfroy and XXXTentacion. It’s like two living beings in one body. XXXTentacion is transcendent, radiant. He’s the inner core. He can’t be stopped. In less than two years, he’ll be on the Billboard charts with a song that was uploaded to SoundCloud. And then there’s Jahseh Onfroy. Jahseh Onfroy’s life was marked by the blunt reality that he had terrible luck. Whenever anything could go wrong, it did. It’s a defining aspect of his existence. And like anyone with bad luck, a great deal of it was self-inflicted.
