In a recent post on X, Falling In Reverse lead singer Ronnie Radke responded to critics celebrating false reports of his death.
The frontman shared the screenshot of some comments made to the fake news of his death and wrote the following:
“The body dysmorphia army at it again.”
One of the comments the singer shared said:
“Ugh, I wish.”
Another user also made a similar mark, writing:
“If only…”
Under his tweet, the fans gathered to defend the rocker’s stance on haters. One of them noted, targeting the reactions to Radke’s fake death news:
“These people are disgraceful and disgusting.”
Another comment said:
“Ugh… They’ll literally say and do anything for a reaction and attention!”
Playful Response To Metallica and AC/DC Fans’ Critiques
Not long ago, Radke also used X to humorously respond to Metallica and AC/DC fans who criticized his band. He posted album covers from Metallica, Nickelback, Architects, and AC/DC and jokingly commented as if he were a typical fan. The frontman wrote:
“Your bands’ songs all sound the same; you’ve written the same song over and over. Falling In Reverse sucks anyways. Here are my favorite bands and albums of all time.”
Showing Spotify Success As A Rebuttal
Later, he also posted Falling In Reverse’s Spotify Wrapped statistics on X as a comeback to the band’s detractors. The Spotify Wrapped data showed that Falling In Reverse garnered 549.9 million streams from 20.8 million listeners across 184 countries. Although the band released two new songs this year, some people commenting on Radke’s post mentioned that the band’s streaming numbers went down in 2023. He said in his response:
“I’ll never understand some of y’all saying I fell off when I released 2 songs this year and got these numbers. Sit you’re a** down. Hahahaha!”
The latest Falling In Reverse album, Coming Home’ arrived in 2017. Ronnie talked about why his band started releasing singles instead of full albums in a July chat 100.3 The X Rocks’s Adam McGuire-Britson. He noted that their last record had poor results. Seeing similar struggles in other bands, he chose to emulate artists like Drake by releasing singles instead of albums, believing it to be a more effective approach.
