Revisiting: Patrick Stump

Don't recognize him? Don't think he wanted you to. The Kevin Bacon Lookalike club is looking for him though.
Fresh off his Jenny Craig diet, the dramatically
different looking Patrick Stump (in my opinion it looks like 
he's now much older than his real age of 26 says...) is re-emerging
 from his self-condemned solitude after the fall of FOB. He's
also had a couple cameos in other albums since then, but
has still been off the radar for some time. He's done
a couple interviews and has released a single (two versions actually, 
get them by clicking HERE) I won't link 'em. Don't care to.
The singles are very good. I personally lost interest in him
after the fall of Fall Out Boy upon reading many interviews and
quotes after the break up about how the band was basically
copycatting other bands and just feigning interest
in the music they themselves' were releasing. Ironic,
considering how some of their songs were stating
how they weren't sell-outs, but whatever.

However, in new interviews, he has stated how he's
making music on his "own terms". All I ever ask of an artist
is that they are making music they care about or comes
from their hearts. Seems he's come around, check out this
sweet vid. Although he's far less cute now (IMO) maybe
he can recoup some respect with stuff like this.
