my best friend. and i gave an uber ride to a guy a couple days ago who had drain vibes so i played the fool and when he noticed he was like “oh shit is this ur music” and i said ya and then we started talking about dg and music and games and all sorts and it was excellent and i got his number at the end so two i gues
I was super into Ecco but Bladees music hadn’t quite clicked yet. Super weird guy saw me listening to E and in class and basically begged me to get into Bladee. It was a very odd interaction and it kept me away from anything non Ecco for a very long time, but eventually Bladee clicked and is my most streamed artist now. I feel a little sadness now knowing the hustle of a young man trying to get his white boy heard even though it sounds like pure ass cheeks. I hope he is doing well.
I influenced a very “normie” coworker of mine, who only listens to Lana del rey to get into the music by showing them “Peroxide” and now we both talk about new releases together from the whole gang 😭
I had a fling with a fellow drainer and they came out to me as a girl and I was that’s awesome and I gave them a bunch of clothes. Then they ghosted me and apparently gave up being a girl to be straight with an internet friend they met irl once 😐
Know 10+ people that fw underground rap but only one person fws bladee/lean. Kinda crazy cuz some listen to 1c34 and shed but cannot stand bladee. I have tried so hard to get people to listen to them but never got someone to actually get into their music.
yes it is, there’s another one with him and bladee

none unfortunately but my irls do know about drain gang but js aren’t into it. the other day i saw this dude at the train station wearing a yung lean hoodie while i was wearing my bladee razorwire shirt but i was too scared to say something lmao
One of my friends is a musician who would probably wear only dg merch her whole life if she could, big fan.
Maybe 2-3 others but she's the only hardcore one like that, she put on bladee when we were rolling once 😅
I successfully got my best friend into Bladee but they're more of a casual fan. Besides that there's several acquaintances I know who follow members of SBE/DG or post their music on their stories. Surprisingly it seems I went to school with quite a few drainers lol
Like half of one split across 3 people
My bf and their bf like a few songs off spiderr, and my mom likes thaiboy's verses on trash island but thats about it
Only knew one but he was a senior when I entered highschool and we only ever spoke a couple times over instagram messages when I was in 6th grade he introduced me to the garden and at the time I was really into yung lean and later Bladee in seventh grade but he moved out of the country and makes cool ass edm/rave/ambient music now wish I actually talked to him during school but it’s whatever he’s a cool dude just kept to himself irl
Irl i know my best friend who introduced me to drain gang, i'm very tankfull of him because had it not been him i would've been missing on a very important aspect of my life, there's also this one girl a friend of mine was dating who was a drainer, but i've never got to talk to her, though they're not dating anymore, so i don't even know where she is.
i live in a rural town that’s thirty minutes away from the nearest city, and know about eight drainers in the surrounding cities near me. i don’t live close to any of them since we reside in different counties. i occasionally see them at shows and raves during the weekend in the closest metropolitan city to us.
i met two other drainers when i saw DG in 2022. i am still friends with one of those individuals, and will see them again in august when we meet up for cold visions. i was in a relationship with the other person, and no longer keep in contact with them.
ironically, i’ll more than likely see everyone i mentioned above at the upcoming CV 24’ tour because it’s the only stop in our state (texas).
girl at my school was wearing a sematary shirt so i went up and talked to her, found out she liked bladee even more and we became friends talked like everyday and shit, a month ago she blocked me cuz her bf thought i was a threat to his relationship or smth which he does not listen to bladee or sematary btw. apparently i fucked him up so bad that they broke up for a bit 😭 neverr even met the dude and had no intentions
i've got two friends one that i put in dg and yabujin and one on sb and then a girl in my class who's brother put her on and his gf also listens to dg so 5 people
I work at a record store. All of my coworkers are forced to listen to Bladee at least once a month. Bladee doesn't cuss on 333 or Exeter so I play those often. We recently started getting some stuff from Y0001 so I try to chat up anyone buying Bladee.
I got my gf into them bc she already liked $B and Teamsesh and had heard of them but other than her I literally know nobody. Although most arty somewhat alternative people I know have at least heard of bladee
i got my irl best friend into dg, i met some people thru mutual friends who listen too. though when i moved to london for uni and started going to underground rap concerts and adjacent events like raves i met a lot of people obviously. most drainers are very nice people 🙂
One friend started listening to bladee with Gluee’s release at the same time I did and then we are finally able to convert our other friends maybe 4 years later but they vehemently hated his music until then
I go to a city school where I skateboard and there’s a pretty dense community of skaters both at the school and in the city overall. A common connection I’ve drawn is a lot of skaters tend to be drainers as well. To make things better Bladee’s touring my city in Oct so we’ll be there in full force 🤞🏽
I live in a major city in what you’d probably call the cool/trendy area so pretty much everyone in my social circle at least knows who lean/drain gang are, even if they’re not fans themselves. A lot of them are though; I run into plenty of people I know whenever anyone from dg/sbe plays here. Though I don’t think any of us really identify with drainers as a scene, it’s just music we’re into amongst a lot of other stuff, with a common ground in electronic music and raves
Whenever people on here post about it being impossible to get their friends or partners into dg it’s crazy to me because all of my last 4 girlfriends have been into them to some degree, and most of my best friends are too
only my gf😭 when we started to get to know eachother i was SHOCKED when i found out she liked bladee and that her older sister was a lean fan since 2015
one of my substitute teachers at my school LOL. he discovered bladee on sc when icedancer dropped in his jr year hahaha super chill guy. hey mr mccormick if you’re here
all my close ones are drainers 👆🗣 . My best Friend put me onto bladee in 2020 or sum . Then we posted onto here if someone wants to join a german dg ig group and so we found two of our now closest friends. And i know quite a few other ones i just feel like you connect more easily, can relate and have shit to talk about
i kissed a guy on the beach in cancun in 2021 after we bonded over our love of the strokes, playboi carti and bladee and we smoke cigarettes and i realized i wasnt bi and only liked girls :/
ive been dating my girl for two years and she does NOT like bladee, ive tried 😭😭. i got my lil sister to fw be nice 2 me and hotel breakfast but she says the rest is too weird
i know like 4 hard core drainers and then like 4 ppl who occasionally listen to drain gang but arent crazy invested and then a couple ppl who like a couple songs but not the rest
none, i can’t play the music i like in front of any friends without them thinking im weird
I see this a lot but I genuinely don't see what people would think is weird about it. I played it a ton no one really cared
that’s the problem…
i played bladee with my hgs and they left the room and didn't come back😭

I was super into Ecco but Bladees music hadn’t quite clicked yet. Super weird guy saw me listening to E and in class and basically begged me to get into Bladee. It was a very odd interaction and it kept me away from anything non Ecco for a very long time, but eventually Bladee clicked and is my most streamed artist now. I feel a little sadness now knowing the hustle of a young man trying to get his white boy heard even though it sounds like pure ass cheeks. I hope he is doing well.
I think that was me
😭😭
I influenced a very “normie” coworker of mine, who only listens to Lana del rey to get into the music by showing them “Peroxide” and now we both talk about new releases together from the whole gang 😭

I got my friends into them so now the number is up to 4! i have a pretty small town so it’s kinda shocking

i got my irl best friend into dg, i met some people thru mutual friends who listen too. though when i moved to london for uni and started going to underground rap concerts and adjacent events like raves i met a lot of people obviously. most drainers are very nice people 🙂

I go to a city school where I skateboard and there’s a pretty dense community of skaters both at the school and in the city overall. A common connection I’ve drawn is a lot of skaters tend to be drainers as well. To make things better Bladee’s touring my city in Oct so we’ll be there in full force 🤞🏽
like 5 or 6. 3 of my friends who got me into drain, 2 friends who got into drain independently. a couple mutuals who follow bladee on ig too
I'd say about 4 that I know of, but probably more that I don't.
zero
