    you get the entire project plus an additional 10-ish minutes of unreleased instrumental music.


    first time "mass producing" a cassette myself, so the presentation might reflect that. i'd like to release more cassettes in the future. the plan is to refine this process with each iteration.

    these tapes are clear and about 40 minutes long. there may or may not be a couple surprises that come with the tape as well. you didn't ask for any but, whatever.

    only shipping in these United States of America. why? because i think shipping outside the US might end up costing more than the tape. if i'm wrong, please hit me on twitter or something and let me know how i can get a tape to you.

    ships within 10 days of order placement.

about

this track is actually about a strange way to find out someone is a racist.

lyrics

send me invite
and show me guest list
too many folk on it that i don't mess with

might see some people that i don't wanna talk to
and I won't hit the party if it's too far to walk to

see i'm really a computer nerd
and i'm using misdirection on present and future birds
you ain't fly and your shit ain't close so your celebration ain't worth
the uber surge

but if i see a name that i know i could hitch a ride
travel situation get immediately simplified

but i'm kinda low on the dough so no chips on the petro
oh, won't you let a villain slide?

see i'm trying to keep the money paypal
hey now
and it look like it was supposed to be a potluck
all they bringin is the reggie and the rotgut
ain't no forks an dno plates
they got pasta, though?

and i hardly know the host
but she's starting to approach for the handshake, hug
and the tiny chat
i brought box wine and snacks for this riot act
she gotta lei, got beads, gotta tiny hat

feelin dumb but i'm stuck in this thang
it ain't fun but it's nothing so strange i couldn't come to
explain that
my presence is the passion of the peer pressure
but i'mma have to grade the function with the sixth letter


chorus
but i guess that i'm stuck here now
got blunts, beer, chow
and i don't want none of it

but now i'm eating rigatoni with my hands, in a corner ,
feeling phony kinda lonely and i'm lovin it

'cause i gotta lotta anxiety
i would rather be at home and enjoying my privacy

but as long as nobody is focusing on me
i can concentrate on trying to be

normal

what's the wifi password?
what's the wifi password?
write it on this little slip of paper so i ain't gotta make a 5 second effort to ask her

if you know it, but you don't wanna show that you know it
we can put the topic on the back burner but

i know you visited before 'cause i seen snapchat stories of you and all these mufuckas turning up

what's the wifi password?
what's the wifi password?
"S-REGGIN double L-A 68"
well
that's "86 all niggers" backwards


i guess that the owner of this wifi router is a racist
i didn't know the owner of this wifi router was a racist
a racist
