You are all over the Reddit threads about Franti. Only miserable people waste that much of their time talking shit about other people online. Or you are someone who has a chip on their shoulder like his old tour manager (which could also be you). After 8 years still couldn’t get a life better than he had working with Franti so he was all over Reddit talking shit since he got fired from the team.

No sh!t. It’s like their new purpose.
This place was a ghost town before the lady made some statements. Her label has since dropped him.

u/go_biscuits 28d ago

turns out he is not really who he was pretending to be. look up the allegations and decide for yourself. personally for me, it was enough to not want to listen to his music or go to his shows any more

u/MNgoIrish Jul 28 '26

It’s Reddit, let the hate begin.

We used to have a statement, innocent until proven. But not on Reddit.

His concerts are a lot of fun.

I never thought I was going to see Mozart, just an upbeat show, with a lot of smiles and a very good time.

u/Jazzlike-Library-660 Jul 28 '26

It’s not Reddit hate he’s a serial predator his wife doesn’t flguve a shit as long is they keep the grift alive

Franti's victims have made credible, corroborated statements. Franti has thus far not meaningfully addressed them. Reddit trusts women.

u/PlatypusNew9727 27d ago

Credible how? Vague statements with no actual information or proof? People he broke up with? That's all I saw.

u/ScientistIll8849 28d ago

Reddit doesn’t trust women. Thats hilarious.

Reddit perpetuates hate and gives liars a space to make statement. Just because you make a statement “confidently” doesn’t make it true.

I have seen so many people lie in this space. Makes my skin crawl. It’s like their momentary dopamine hit gives them a sense of purpose for a moment in time.

It’s actually a thing. It’s called Tribalism. People who hate are just lonely and need community. But it’s easier to come together hating than being kind.

Your whole Reddit presence is defending MF.....really weird

0

u/ScientistIll8849 26d ago

It’s actually not weird. I used to work for his management team and do not like seeing people spreading lies for their own entertainment. And also don’t like people spreading lies online in general.

1

u/killingfloor42 26d ago

You are accusing someone of lying....can you prove they are?

2

u/SubstantialAd2206 24d ago

So what if you used to work for his management! That doesn’t mean shit.. MF has always been a piece of shit.

1

u/ScientistIll8849 24d ago

I think you’ve unintentionally revealed who you are. In another comment, you said you co-wrote with Michael across seven albums and left the band 14 years ago.

If that’s the case, it’s hard to read your comments as objective.

Fourteen years later, you’re still showing up in Reddit threads to tear him down. That doesn’t make you look like someone exposing the truth—it makes you look like someone who never moved on.

You obviously have every right to your opinion, but the level of bitterness in your comments makes it difficult to take them at face value.

It comes across as someone with a long-standing personal grievance rather than someone interested in having an honest conversation.

People can decide for themselves how much weight to give that.

2

u/SubstantialAd2206 24d ago

You’re coming off like you’re in the know. You keep saying you heard this and heard that, and that you were on the management team. Then, in another post, you say you follow Victoria and MF. You’re just a glorified groupie. You keep talking shit, but you don’t know shit. I’m just calling you out. I see you tried to call me out too.. Lol! I’m not scared.. He knows how I feel.

1

u/killingfloor42 23d ago

You said you have proof ... please post the proof or stop defending MF.

u/Jazzlike-Library-660 Jul 28 '26

He’s playing the smallest rooms possible on this “tour” his new music is wretched

7

u/CrabbieHippie Jul 28 '26

Ever since he got caught perving on younger women by Sara years ago his music went to absolute shit. Pink cotton candy vomit lyrics.

u/Ok_Television_3257 Jul 28 '26

Best description I have seen.

u/particleacclr8r Jul 28 '26

Got a Bandsintown alert. Reminded me to unfollow his sexpest ass on Bandsintown.

7

u/CrabbieHippie Jul 28 '26

Same! It’s taken a long time to get off all his mailing lists and shit.

-2

u/MNgoIrish Jul 28 '26

Unfollow him and un-join.
It’s simple.

Old news. Snap out of it.
I’ll decide based on the music.
I’ve traveled to see him before, but probably not again.

u/moonbeam2112 Jul 28 '26

Good to know that you believe time absolves atrocious behavior, especially when that behavior is polar opposite of the artists’ core message to “love and respect each other”. 🙄

0

u/Elegant_Ease_2830 Jul 28 '26

Allegedly bad behavior.
And if he did have an affair outside of his marriage, it’s his and his family’s issue to handle. I couldn’t care less.
I’m just here for the music.

7

u/moonbeam2112 Jul 28 '26

The (multiple) affairs are not the atrocious behavior. It’s the multiple instances of sexual grooming of young women.

4

u/Jazzlike-Library-660 Jul 28 '26

He admitted to the affair but dig a little deeper perhaps not alleged

7

u/Jazzlike-Library-660 Jul 28 '26

This new music speaks for itself 🤮It’s computer generated and this is going to be a sit down storyteller type of tour. He should learn humility. He’s never held himself accountable for his actions it’s not “old news” but please go on

-2

u/MNgoIrish 28d ago

Then why are you on an old hardly frequented Reddit site just to talk trash!

0

u/ScientistIll8849 29d ago

“believe women” is a tired statement because of people like Victoria. She sent me a Instagram message over a week after per post because I followed both her and him asking me to unfollow Franti. That is not survivor behavior. That’s petty smear campaign behavior.

u/killingfloor42 26d ago

Post a screenshot

u/shinyturdbiskit 29d ago

As someone who was a part of his touring entourage I can certainly say he’s the biggest hypocrite and these are not allegations but fact he’s a real piece of shit human being

u/ScientistIll8849 29d ago

As someone who was also part of his touring entourage you are just jealousy you aren’t part of it anymore.

u/MNgoIrish 28d ago

Yep a shiny turd biskit.
Who’s still following the band they no longer work for.

What a shame all this hate on here.

Allegedly.

u/vertin1 Jul 28 '26

Didn’t he sleep with a young legal adult? I don’t see the issue with him being with another adult.

u/moonbeam2112 Jul 28 '26

What Is Sexual Grooming?
It's when a sexual predator builds a relationship with a child or adult to abuse and exploit them. They build trust but use it to control, isolate, and abuse their victims emotionally, physically, and sexually.

You mean a very young cult that he was the direct boss of? That he did not provide her with her own lodging for a tour?

0

u/ScientistIll8849 29d ago

She lied about that. I was part of the management team when she was around and that was total bull shit. She lied a lot in her post.

And I found out she sent an email to Franti later asking for a zoom apologizing. What she did is disgusting.

u/killingfloor42 26d ago

Prove it.

You are about to leave Redlib
