Latest Rockit Music drop is way better than it has any right to be for being a Poppy Playtime fansong, I swear this sounds like it'd fit right in with a certain kind of alt-girl-pop stereotypically popular with Tumblr girls that sometimes flukes its way onto the charts via TikTok trends (and not just because this kind of sound of song with lyrics full of toy/doll imagery makes me think a little of early Melanie Martinez)

Also if I had a nickel for every horror game fansong that sounds like it genuinely would fit right in on alternative radio/in-a-Hot-Topic-before-they-seemingly-became-more-of-a-nerd-store-than-alt-store if not for a few oddlyspecific lyrics listeners who didn't know the context would find weird I'd have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice and since we've got this for the guys

In 2020, Mandopony was accused of inappropriate relations and actions towards minors, such as lying about things, giving them gifts, sending them nudes, drawing inappropriate stuff with said victims and Natewantstobattle, saying weird things about fanfiction with said victims, being inappropriate with fans, being disgusting towards Natewantstobattle (in multiple ways that's too much to list), cheating on his wife (she defended him, including Christina Vee of all people. But the tweet was deleted or reported)

There have been large amounts of screenshots provided, while he has yet to prove his innocence. NateWantsToBattle and GiveHeartRecords have disassociated themselves with him by removing all of his music videos from their YouTube channel and removing his content from their website.

There's a bunch of evidence; if you want to DM me about it, that is 100% ok. If you're not comfortable sharing anything, that is ok too. I would highly recommend scrolling through the Exposing Andy account because of what they have.

On March 9th 2021, he made a tweet about a statement he made from himself and his legal team

He claimed that he never did anything even though there were mountains of evidence. Making excuses about not wanting to be online so he could hide and run away from his actions.

On August 22nd 2022, he made another post about another police investigation

Glass crackling under metal fingertips. A head crashing through, sweet, tender throat exposed to the shards standing at attention.

There is really no good way to tackle this subject, but I hope I did my best. As a former fan of Andrew's and someone who has intense nostalgia for his work, this video really hurt to make. But we need to have this talk, we need to learn that we cannot separate the art from the artist in the case of MandoPony.

I did drop comments here and there saying I was working on expanding the "Power of NEOclassical" Mettaton piano music album. This is another piece that will eventually go into it, a take on the Mettaton fansong "They Need a Monster" by Mandopony.

On another note, I noticed this sounds also quite nice on plucked strings, here's the same song with MuseScore 3 mandolin soundfont.
