[Hook: STUNTT MANE] Big city boy with a big bag habit Dublin keep it you can have it Gun-plate gum on rose gold ring Too hot for the charts Too raw first thing Got my whole mind open in a brand new tab Split ya head open in the back of the cab It’s a little blood it’s not that bad Come award season you back on track [Verse 1: STUNTT MANE] Never seen a man with this much baggage I’m in deep and you can’t stand it Bouncer bout to break my grill Too gone for the door Too gone on pill Too gone Man gone way off tack Spit boxfresh that’s glow on back If ya gotta ask that’s Mike on my tag Touch my Guiney’s you catch back hand Couldn’t be me dont keep no profile No freeze gonna keep that flow fire Enemies bo peep when I go wild Never gone need no tweet no co-sign Never gone need no “oh he’s class” Never gone need no puff puff pass Never gone need no fifty credits Six feens deep produce and sell it Ten feens deep from here to L.A Off the canvas I’m gonna get it Van Gogh painting off the Pelly Yokes in water crush the ice Lemon lime then rack em lines Bloody Mary Jesus Christ Where you gonna be tonight? Way you move I might come twice [Hook: STUNTT MANE] Big city boy with a big bag habit Dublin keep it you can have it Gun-plate gum on rose gold ring Too hot for the charts Too raw first thing Got my whole mind open in a brand new tab Split ya head open in the back of the cab It’s a little blood it’s not that bad Come award season you back on track [Verse 2: STUNTT MANE] Give you the shakes Tic-tac no backses Visor down Donald Duck doing taxes Counterfeit pen check em again Check the tens I ain’t take no chances Cash count it twice Holding em up to that laser light And If I told ya once must have told ya twice Got a job to do ya gotta do it right Theo got my back Dolce Vita what’s the craic Have your man over my lap Padre Pio whistle slap Bag lickin' they lookin' I’m taking they took it I’m coming they know it The others is choking I’m chewing they buzzing I’m cooking I’m screwing Can’t name a tool I’m not willing to use Not enough bruises to give me the blues Not enough stamina not enough truth Not enough chopper chase on the news Give me some smoke give me something to lose Gimme the heat gimme the loot I’m in the Bronco I’m on the loose Whatcha want? I’m in the drive thru Whatcha need? Would I lie to you?

DOGTOOTH 03:44
[Hook] Deadly when I pull the gem out Deadly when I pull the gem out [Verse 1] DIY goal, beat to the bowl Brain split in half man I think it took a toll Whole lot I’d love to do, tune alarms in ICU Not rap it’s release, done then no repeat Not built for speed but I make a good go of it Ain’t got the pace it’s the weight of the cross Not built for speed but my ass is still magnificent Now you got me kissing on your man with the gloss [Chorus] I’ll be the one to steal your mans Catch him paying double on my only fans I’ll be the one to steal your mans Catch him paying double on my only fans [Verse 2] PTSD Pretty sweet deal Harder better stronger Mom and sis know more than me Happy out in the backseat, boys turn in the backseat Staying out the obit, long enough to ignore it I’ve tried nothing but I’m staying on top of it I’ve tried nothing but I’d say it all works I’ve tried nothing but they say it all works Keep it all together long enough to make it worse [Hook] Deadly when I pull the gem out Deadly when I pull the gem out Deadly when I pull the gem out Deadly when I pull the gem out [Verse 3] “I got keys in neck” “I don’t take no visa cheque” Big Tek taking bets on my death Jokes on you I’m still here Dead men still in my contacts Still Dennis Wilson at the pageant no contest ER Room don’t tell us Won’t let you kill me I’d only get jealous [Outro] Magnificent

about

notes on the record by Colm from Hausu:

boredoms 400 is actualacid’s debut album and it feels volatile to the points where words fail me. let me try and paint the scene. a plastic iPod nano case with semtex veins, an orla kiely bulletproof vest, custom bebo themes with pentagrams and blingee glitter, kevin shields calling a seance with lord infamous, stolen lambs from some kerry farmer for sacrifice. jack corrigan’s solo project features wall to wall bars from stuntt mane (I'll explain). there’s also a sample from a quentin tarrantio interview, a chopped up gospel refrain, crisp string sections, zero-to-one-hundred dynamics and a prince-esque guitar solo that bleeds purple. an AI-simulated american rapper whom we won’t name for copyright reasons talks about spice bags before glitching into gibberish flows.

how we got here is a tale told over a million rewrites, revisions, distractions and directions. I hadn't even met jack when his debut ep boredoms 500 dropped, and I wrote the press release for it. now, I'm selling its sequel “sequel”. I trained a neural network on 700 classic hip-hop mixtapes to generate mutant elements of the artwork for it; unknowable glyphs of diamond and gold collide in the infinite deep south.

whatver lies in 300 and beyond is not known to me and I'm a little afraid.

stuntt mane is a rapper who leaves no trace in the digital world but who jack swears is his cousin from sligo - I've met him only on the few occasions we've put these songs on live. he is by all accounts a gentleman. the man who wrote the line "getting body-positive in the back of a mcdonalds / when she says she only wants me for my sauce I said you got it" doesn't seem to want a career as a rapper or even feature credits for this album. he name-drops me on one of the tracks? we stay in frequent correspondence but it’s mostly just me asking what the hell his lyric about father john misty was because my ears just aren't grabbing it. some lines have been stuck there for months. "visor down like donald duck doing taxes"

I’ve known jack corrigan for four years and he’s the greater enigma, if you ask me. it’s my job to sell you this record and like I don’t know why he made an album that takes memphis rap tropes and puts them through shoegaze scuzz until every frequency is saturated. I’ve heard thousands of versions of some of these tracks and no more than one of some others. this is my personal Yandhi. he won’t make another album like this again either, so if you like this, get to loving it.

you know that tweet where former westlife member brian mcfadden challenges every member of terrorist group isis to one-on-one fist fights? that’s boredoms 400

jack corrigan showed up to a gaff with three other hausu heads, played them the album on the day he finished mixing it for maybe the tenth time. it was emotional and exhausting. we hugged him and raved incandecent about the record. he stepped out the door and vainshed and went to bed by 10:30pm. behind him he left his phone, wallet, passport, sunglasses, hard drive and an unopened can of sour apple four loko. we found him in the morning unshaken and well-rested.

when I met jack corrigan he was growing his hair out saying he wouldn’t cut it because he wanted it to be shaved off in a music video; suspended upside down from a tree while an attractive man removed strips of his hair. he knew what song he wanted this to be for, too. it still took two years of long hair that he hated before he finally got in front of a camera.

you know that weird emoji of a man in a business suit levitating? 🕴? that's boredoms 400
