I’m going to

Jason Ethier aka I’mJayStation is feeling
the wrath of social media after he posted
a video that shows him apparently trying to
contact the ghost of diseased rapper Mac Miller.
For those who are unaware, 26 year old rapper
mac miller died back in September where he
was pronounced dead at the scene.
The cause of was a drug overdose, but police
believe his death might have been a . Mac
Miller’s was a devastating tragedy.
Ariana Grande, who was once in a relationship
with mac miller, had to deal with a lot of
trolling from people who blamed her for Mac
Millers overdose.
The video is called RIP mac miller spirit
box challenge at 3AM, speaks about ariana
grande, and at the time of this recording
its got over half a million views.
It was posted a few days after mac miller’s
. It starts with him asking his subscribers
for a thumbs up as a quote ‘prayer for mac
miller’.
Jason then uses an electronic voice phenomenon
device, or EVP.
It’s a device that’s used by ghost and
paranormal hunters.
EVP are sounds found on electronic recordings
that are interpreted as spirit voices that
have either been unintentionally recorded,
or intentionally recorded.
Most paranormal investigators claim that EVPs
allow spirits to make contact with the real
world.
He uses this EVP to the AM, FM radio waves,
and begins asking it questions.
On his channel, he posts a lot of these 3
am challenges where he tries to contact spirits.
He says hes contacted slenderman, and he says
he face timed with Michael myers.
The EVP, at first, doesn’t pick up much.
But then, it picks up the words Yo, Yo Yo.
Jason then asks, Were you sad about ariana
grande.
A mans voice says, I was in love with somebody.
Good times.
Bad times.
Stress.
Then it came to an end.
The voice then says.
Show people that I was okay.
Use social media.
Its all positivity.
It was just too much.
I had no time.
Depressed.
I made a mistake.
Don’t worry.
I’m okay.
The voices then stop, and the image of ariana
grande appears on Jason’s television.
Not too sure whats going on here guys, maybe
the responses were prerecorded, and maybe
jaystation did manage to contact the spirit
of mac miller.
Previously in the video, mac miller also appeared
on jasons TV.
But most people who watched this video were
not convinced that it was legit, and were
upset that Jaystation made a video like this.
To make matters worse, Jaystation enabled
ads on the video so he was making money off
it.
JayStations video has 69 thousand dislikes
to 32 thousand likes, so that gives you an
idea of how people are feeling about it.
The comment section is flooded with negative
responses where People are saying that he’s
exploiting mac millers deaths for youtube
views and revenue.
He has responded to the criticism in an interview
with the daily dot, defending his video and
saying that it wasn’t an attempt to exploit
the late rappers death.. he said, everyone
gains attention from celebrity death by talking
about it.
The thing is, this isn’t the first time
Jason has caused controversy over a video
like this.
Back when XXX died, Jason posted a video of
him using a Ouija board to try and contact
him.
In the interview with the daily dot, Jason
further said that he wasn’t going to be
doing another video where he tried to contact
the spirit of a deceased musician, even though
if he did do an EVP or Ouija board video on
Michael Jackson, elvis, or the beatles, people
wouldn’t care.
There are a lot of youtubers who get flack
for making videos about celebrities who have
recently passed away.
IO veteran Michael McCrudden is a good example,
he does a segment on his channel called before
they were gone, where he publishes bios.
He’s gotten a lot of criticism from youtubers
like keemstar who have started calling him
Michael McGreedy.
On the one hand, the press and media in general
do publish stories about the death of influential
people, and they do make money off it.
This is nothing new and Its not just youtubers.
When you click on a news story about the death
of someone, there are ads on the page.
And without these news outlets, no one would
know about the deaths of influential people
in the first place.
I’m torn guys, do you think youtubers should
make videos about other people’s deaths?
Do you think jaystation went too far with
this video?
Let me know in those comments but for now,
I’m going to do some comment replies.
