Although Svdden Death is pushing for his fans to enjoy a healthier lifestyle, he reflects somewhat of a balanced view on substance use within the rave culture. In his reply, he expressed that he doesn’t judge people who drink or use drugs and isn’t making a moral claim against it. However, he believes that people involved in rave culture should also learn to enjoy the experience and navigate the scene without relying on substances.

Fans filled Svdden Death’s mentions on X, showing support for his stance. Many shared their experiences of attending EDM shows sober or being in recovery, and he congratulated them for their efforts. One fan joked, “The wooks are gonna be real upset at this when they wake up in a few hours,” to which he replied by calling the wook subculture “the lamest part of rave culture.”

Svdden Death gave a shoutout to some of his DJ friends who are sober, along with his “straight-edge homies” who don’t use any substances. He clarified that he doesn’t fully fit into that category, as he still drinks occasionally, but he expressed respect for those who choose total sobriety. His comments highlight his appreciation for different approaches to substance use within the music scene.

Svdden Death’s take on this matter shows why he is a true artist to look up to. His empathy and respect toward fans in the community demonstrate his commitment to using a position of power to spread positivity.
