about

A simple, self-aware flow and the jolly yet bare sample remind the listener that this is a collection of music, and it is meant to be fun. The intent of the project was not to create something for people to sit back, examine and critique but to create a collection of songs to laugh with while fondly remembering everything that was written about and referenced. Every tape needs it's denouement that ties it all together and that was the purpose of presenting the listener with the "Dessert Menu."

lyrics

I bet y’all ain’t think that I could do it
(I bet y’all ain’t think that I could do it!)
When I die ima be married to the music

It’s a beautiful thing
It’s a beautiful thing!

So I be asking where the hash at
Then I could track it like a hash tag
And I’ma bring you to the hash house
Now we going over things that we should hash out
Throwing in my chips and ima cash out
Blowing on some shit to make you pass out
Lungs all tar, but I’m the man now
Now I’m an All Star, like Smashmouth
The same case where the doobies at
Rap game fake like a beauty pageant
So I be dodging all the boobie traps
I’m just tryna get my Scooby snacks!
You dumb twisted, bum writtens
One difference, I come winning
()The submission, I’m a-ddicted, living
in a haze and I ain’t anything but gifted
Focus when the vision getting blizzurd
This be the dopest shit you hizzeard
So when we parlay with the wizards
The entree got you wishing for the desert
