He simply ran out of ideas and making videos about music didn't motivate him anymore. His claim that he never cared about music is obviously a lie considering he spent his entire 20's in the hardcore scene, has a body full of band tatoos and wardrobes full of bands' merch. It's probably a mix of genuinely losing interest in music, as he's growing in his 40's, and of resentment for the "scene" in which he doesn't belong anymore, because he's in his 40's with a family and also in multiple videos said how the "scene" ruined him for as much as he also loved punk and hardcore (he talked about how his life might even have been better if he never had come in contact with punk) because he trashed his 20's spending time with loser fake friends punk/hardcore guys, and also it's partly because he genuinely doesn't have anything to say anymore about music and so making more videos about ripping other peoples content or about popular bands he never cared for (SOAD etc...) bored him. Also he claimed how he stopped going to shows and when he goes he just thinks about when the show will end because he wants to go back with his wife and kid. His whole claim about this being a big plot to make money and that he never cared about music is typical of Finn McKenty, meaning he exaggerated what he actually meant and got thousands of people angry at him for it.
The last bit you put is the reason I never liked him he always came off as an smug dick who spent most of his time shitting on bands and scenes most of his takes where there 2 upset people and him running away and being rude to his fans just proves why I blocked him of my feed after watching a few videos 3 years ago he is a massive C world 😂
What's funny is I can't find him AT ALL on linkedin, so he either deleted his linkedin or he BLOCKED ME SPECIFICALLY.... Although I will admit I've posted comments calling his shit out on linkedin before....
He’s a wise man, he did it because he’s saw a marketing opportunity, not for the love of the art. Abandon will hop on a bandwagon with the latest trend for a cash grab.
Finn has said in several videos that he thinks marketing and brand recognition is more interesting to him than anything else in the music world. Him leaving RUclips was always going to be an eventuality. Dude is just a slick shit suit and tie guy in a punk/metal costume.
Guy made his channel named "PunkRockMBA" but gets mad cause audience only wanna hear about punk, rock and metal... How ironic is that. He's coping so hard in the interview, maybe super depressed. "I have no interest in music"...? Dude, you have a Morbid Angel tattoo and wrote for MetalSucks before RUclips and ranked album tier lists on his previous Twitch streams. Dude's just coping and depressed over something. Obviously he's a major music nerd like a lot of others, and there's nothing wrong with that. Weird how he wanna distance himself from that cause of negative trolls. Sure, negativity got to him, but ending it like this? Not smart at all, especially in terms of marketing.
@@brutalplanetmagazine yep he loves music, obviously he does, he made an alternative music channel. a weird thing to do if you're only in it for the money right? that's why the whole interview is just so weird. he prob started cause he loves music, and then now, many years later he's depressed cause of negative comments and whatever else and says he "only did it for the money" and "I have no interest in music". big cope
He likes and knows about90s hardcore, but he had to talk about nu metal garbage to make money. I don’t think he was being disingenuous about bands in the hardcore scene, but those bands don’t get views so he covered a bunch of slop he didn’t like or know about
Maybe... that whole thing is based on rumors and hearsay though so we try not to deal in that type of gossip. No one is perfect (including us) but yeah.
Buddy doesnt want to do youtube anymore, hes cashing out, let him be, or don't, youre just generating more money for him by making videos bashing him and giving him attention, every last one of you likely went to his channel and tried to throw your two cents in but he gets the last laugh as you generate more money for him.
I wish this was true broseph. We don't make shit but this was a relevant topic to discuss. I wouldn't be surprised if Finn did this as a marketing move to gin up controversy and talk... if he did it worked.
Finn “Filthy Lucre” McKenty, you won’t be missed.
Always got a slimey vibe from him, this coming out doesn’t surprise me and hammers in a sociopathic undertone for him.
Doesn’t he have teen girlfriend?

I think this is the real answer
Yep. He can't take criticism and spent too much time on reddit reading about how everyone hated him.
Makes sense.
What's funny is I can't find him AT ALL on linkedin, so he either deleted his linkedin or he BLOCKED ME SPECIFICALLY.... Although I will admit I've posted comments calling his shit out on linkedin before....
He blocked you, I can see his LinkedIn profile without problem
@ Bahahaha YESSS cope and seethe Finn
lol what a puss
Who would've though vids on nu metal and obscure metal genres was so lucrative.
lol
One of the better more thought out videos on this 🤟🤟🤟🤟
🙏 🙏 🙏

He did the same thing you're currently doing. Not working a real job and sitting around talking about other people who have talent. Weird af
He came out and said fuck you to the people who actually watched and liked his videos. That's the problem here.
fair... but you clearly didn't watch the video
Thank you

He really has a Morbid Angel tattoo?!?!?!

Ahhhh ok... this actually makes the most sense of any take I've heard yet. Thank you!!
Doesn’t he have a questionably young girlfriend or something like that?

This. Truth is all these copy-cat content makers need to make the same "analysis video" on Finn because they lack interesting new ideas.
