Now I am getting incoming that he has shared my recent post and appears to be "calling me out", that I would never say such things to his face. Ever. (his words) lol

I am not sure what was so bad about what I wrote or said... as I feel my post is fair and accurate.

Here is the breakdown...

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Yesterday Aug. 8th 2025, Michael posted the following:

""""If you’re a musician who complains all the time about what you do, your job - quit. No one around you wants to hear it. It’s a joy robber, a life sucker and an absolute downer.
When one person starts complaining, everyone starts complaining. Stay positive or stop. Just some truthful advice from someone who deals with this all the time.
Smile and never forget why you do this. For the love of it…..""""

Today, I saw it, and posted this earlier along with a screen capture of his little rant:

"""""""The irony in this post is mind boggling…
Last check, Michael Sweet complains, whines & bitches more than any notable musician I know.
Maybe he should look in the mirror…
Have a nice day everyone… even the complainers.

"""""""""""""""

Now, Michael who says he doesn't follow me, which I am aware of, because he has me blocked on every platform for years now, even though he at points claims he has no idea who I am... replied with this:

"""""""""""""I don’t know this guy. Never had a conversation with him. Never stalked his FB page. I’m too busy with music. Recording, performing and celebrating 41 years of doing just that. I do good to keep my page going and to keep everyone updated. I hope you all enjoy my openess and my heart. The good and the bad.
Regardless, apparently this guy keeps tabs on me. Like a lot. And, he posts things about me that I bet he would never say to my face. Ever

I’m not really sure what the problem is, but I would say that there is a much deeper issue than just me and my posts. It could be any number of things. Insecurities, frustrations, envy, jealousy. Who knows.
I just wanted to let you all see the nonsense…..""""""""""""""

Which is here > https://www.facebook.com/TheMichaelSwee ... NwkcyFCLnl

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Not sure, but it appears he has very thin skin... and I believe I am not alone in this opinion.

Even a fun random comment like mine, takes him away from his busy "music" schedule... and opts to talk about it and share my comment.

Which he has done multiple times before... he's kind of cute... like a little kid getting mad at recess. I like it.

He does whine ... a ton.

and I'd wager you'd say those things to his face.

Posted: **Sat Aug 09, 2025 5:32 pm**

The comments on his thread are epic... a few people taking my side, and he's quick to jump in and defend 'his' position. lol.

Someone wrote: "Just drop it...."

His reply: "I did when I posted this"

A girl named Heather writes: "I know him personally...he's a good guy."

His reply: "S good guy would not continuously talk. Smack about other musicians online. From what I understand, this is how he makes his living? Regardless, doesn’t seem like a good guy to me.

Someone else wrote: "Quit wasting your time worrying about people like this."

His reply; "No"

One of the comments said you do the same thing to Steve Whiteman ??

Posted: **Sun Aug 10, 2025 6:40 am**

Be careful CEO!

Michael Sweet and Jesus are like really good friends.
You don’t want to get smited.

Posted: **Sun Aug 10, 2025 9:25 am**

From what I understand, this is how he makes his living? Regardless, doesn’t seem like a good guy to me.

I love when clowns write this kind of stuff. He knows EXACTLY who the CEO is and what he does. But it's somehow beneath him to "know."

But, yeah, be semi-careful with those with direct lines to Jesus: he can be a complete punitive cunt.

That granny aint beating no one up. There woukd be two sounds...CEO connecting with bitchboys face and grandmabitchian hitting the floor.

I have the same thought reading this that I had in 1988, "How can people actually like Stryper?" I just don't understand it, and never have. Annoying oversinging with preachy lyrics. Awful.

"""""""""""One of the comments said you do the same thing to Steve Whiteman ??""""""""""""""

See the link below...

Steve on his Potcast was saying how he never made more than $500 a week for all the years they were signed to Atlantic.

I shared my opinion and 2-cents, and like Michael Sweet, all of the Kix fans, and Steve Whiteman diehards whined and bitched about how great they were and I am a jerk because I have an opinion that differs from their shallow hero worship!

I guess in today's world, if you have an opinion, or speak your mind on something or somebody, you are automatically a hater and jealous.

It's wild to see backlash grow against him. He's long been provoked by Stryper fans discussing the band's politics online. What I assume from following them closely for years is that the man is seriously bitter that he cannot make Styper money as a solo act. Or that he cannot tour as Stryper solo. I believe it's similar to Axl in his heyday, where's the other band members would swallow their pride and walk on eggshells rather than risk their gig.

I think it's the latest issue of Rock Candy magazine he's interviewed and talks about being pissed at Robert and Perry because some new technology they are trying to implement into thair setup failed to go off correctly. And he talks about how he was going off saying "I don't need this f****** s*** I should just quit right now!" As soon as the interviewer started talking nicely about Michael's solo career Michael sounded as if he was getting the best Hummer of his life.

I can't imagine what it's like to be on a bus with the guy when he's upset about something or worse, on a tirade. I talk s*** about the band because I care they're one of my favorite bands. But the politics of constantly surrounding Stryper have not put them in a favorable light. I could go on about things he's done or said that I found offensive as much as I could Sharon Osbourne.
I've never added him on social media because the Stryper accounts basically mirror his own. As far as I'm concerned, Robert Sweet is the real rock star in that band that he conceived and started
