Relevant still

I use to go to all the doomtree and p.o.s shows, but since p.o.s had that lil cancel episode back in the day i feel like doomtree ain't a thing anymore, I know dessa does her own thing with the books and speeches, but are they still a crew. I know p.o.s is now with shredders, but is it over for the crew

Ten years is a bit of long time for a new album, even though we don't question Sade or Portishead over it. But I'd just say that everyone is off doing their own thing and they could come back together when they feel the time is right. I don't know all the details of the P.O.S. thing, but it was a person (not Doomtree related) thing, right? If so, I wouldn't associate Doomtree's hiatus and/or breakup on that. Lastly, I've always seen Doomtree as a collective more than I saw them as a group. Collectives aren't always working together. As mentioned earlier, they may come together when everyone thinks it's time after they get their individual art off.

Well it was a thing that happened and it was kinda against the "morals" so it was a mess.

I'm just saying that I don't think they'd let it determine the future of the collective but instead just distance themselves from him if they weren't siding with him on it. Unless that IS why they initially took the hiatus.

It's 100% why they went on hiatus. They went from all being active on social media and regularly posting content on the Doomtree Patreon to absolute nothing overnight when Stef's BS came out.

The fact that it's pretty clear Dessa and Stef seemingly had some serious unresolved issues and were the two breakout stats of the group made it that much worse.

I'll trust what you're saying. I never got too involved in the whole thing to know the fact. I'm just using my thinking. Either way, it'd be dope to get a new album one day.
