    It was a day like any other. Anthony Fantano, the Internet’s busiest music nerd, was hard at work listening to music that he was to review. It was sunny, and slightly humid, so he had left his shirt off for the day. His girlfriend was dealing with an emergency at work.
    But all of a sudden, Anthony heard a knock at his door. His muscles rippled as he got up from his desk chair. He slowly walked to the door… He saw a dark silhouette through the window.
    “I wonder who that could be…?” Anthony wondered.
    He slowly opened the door. And, to his great surprise, his biggest idol was standing before him… MC Ride. Or as his friends call him, Stefan. MC Ride peeked in the doorway, and said,
    “H-hey… um I don’t know if you know me… b-but I’m in a band and our van broke down about a half mile back… I w-was hoping you had some tools laying around…”
    Now, although Anthony had always loved Death Grips and their music, he tried to play it cool. After all, he kind of had a crush on Stefan ever since he heard his voice on Beware. Luckily, Anthony had a big shed in his back yard full of his dad’s old mechanic tools.
    Anthony smiled, and replied, “Sure… I recognize you. What band again? Deaf grapes or something?”
    “N-no… Death Grips…” answered MC Ride.
    Anthony laughed. “ha-ha, that’s right! just come on in! I could definitely give you a tool to use…”
    He led MC Ride to his back yard. On the way, He could feel Ride’s gaze on him. He wondered if he liked what he saw. He opened the door to the shed, and Ride quickly shuffled in to grab what he needed.
    “He’s even cuter in real life…” Thought Anthony.
    On the way back, Anthony hastily offered Ride a beer.
    “Hey man, want to have a beer? You seem like a cool dude.”
    “Well… Zach and Andy are waiting for me… but I guess a quick beer wouldn’t hurt I guess.” Mumbled Ride.
    At first, they sat awkwardly in Fantano’s living room. But then they started talking about Death Grips and other music. They were soon off on a riveting conversation.
    After a while, Anthony said; “hey… I haven’t really been honest with you Stefan… Can I call you that? To tell the truth, I know a lot about Death Grips. I’m pretty much your biggest fan.”
    “Ha-ha… Yes I know… and I have to confess something too. I watch almost all of your video reviews. Y-you could say that I’m your biggest fan.”
    Anthony then did something very risky. He laid his hand on Stefan’s leg, right above the knee. Their eyes met, and the next thing Anthony knew, their lips were locked and they were lying on the couch together.
    “Can Andy and Zach wait?” asked Anthony.
    Ride’s response was to continue kissing him. They made out like this for a few minutes, and then Ride started slowly moving down to Anthony’s private area, kissing his beautiful chest on the way down.
    “Please” whispered Anthony.
    MC Ride slowly unbuttoned Anthony’s black shorts. Anthony’s rock hard penis sprang up, and MC Ride started sucking it off. It was the best blowjob of Anthony’s life. Far better than any blowjob his girlfriend had ever given him. The way Stefan’s tongue moved… it was amazing.
    “Ohhhh Stefan… I think I want you to do the nasty in my taxi!” yelled Anthony.
    “I AM THE BEAST YOU WORSHIP” replied MC Ride as he took Anthony’s cock out of his mouth.
    Anthony bent over on the couch, and got on his knees. Ride undid his all-black jeans, and revealed his lengthy penis. He started to put his throbbing penis into Anthony’s butt, when all of a sudden,
    “IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES IT GOES YUUHHHH!!!!!”
    “Oh my God!!” screamed Anthony. “You get-get-get-get got-got-got-got it in!”
    MC Ride wasn’t a tender lover. He pumped and pumped until finally, in euphoria, he came inside of Anthony’s butt. He withdrew, exhausted, and laid down next to Anthony, who had reached orgasm as well.
    “H-how was it?” Asked Stefan.
    “you’re good…” Whispered Anthony. Whispered Anthony. “I liked your lovemaking. I would give you a strong six, light seven.”

    Very interesting. I find that sometimes people need to take time to review things that are not mainstream and you've done just that. I find the music quite frightening with all the yelling while rapping, but the lyrics have meaning and that's what really counts compared to the current mainstream music that focuses mainly on catchy hooks instead of profound lyrics that have intellectual meaning.

      Shit is hilarious man, death grips was a BLOATED 8 on release and time has told the fact that very few people like to get punched in the ear so can we please not act like this shit is classic...it's not.
      I saw them live...it was amazing. I still hate their recordings for the most part, except for parts of fashion week, but even that feels like a failed proper producers fever dream IMO...I mean it gets points for creativity, but to act like the music is anything but hot garbage pushed through a straw shows a great lack of awareness. I was there when it came out....I'm still here now....it still sucks. Definitely see them live if you get the chance, though.

      snessub I think it has something to do with sampling. Mixtapes are released for free; Death Grips can't profit off this for example because of all the unlicensed sampling. So with mixtapes, you can basically use any song you want, but you also can't make any money doing so.

The thoughts you'd think a homeless man, possibly a Vietnam Vet (Hence.."Ex-Military"), and how'd he'd view his life, what beliefs he's taken up in the decades AFTER, the possible post traumatic stress he suffered FROM the war, etc....is all embodied and showcased in this album.
