A track from Gay and Dead already? Is it already Christmas again?.. incidentally I understand the brother nero reference insofar as Endless Jess says it frequently and it always makes sense in context.. but I don't necessarily intellectually understand what it means. ..oh, wrestling. Yeah, that makes sense. XD

Did Shade sample these sounds from metroid?

Black Queens Forever

Title track/opener for the upcoming album. Prod. MZShaidu: https://soundcloud.com/mzshaidu

Lyrics:

I hit bedrock in my bedroom
playin' new Doom with Aesop Rock and MF Doom
and a shroom sandwich--not psychedelic, but delicious
got no bitches--no women either, for that matter
I'm higher on scattered thoughts than most get on batter and pipes
I make a living off my list of gripes
I've got no game, no life, and plenty of cash from passion
the type to look at myself and start laughin'

'cause I'm holed up in my room
crankin' up the sub so the bass go boom
youtube surfin' on the couch with a box of goon
and just too much time, not enough to do

Nothin' in life will ever live up to Demon's Souls,
MC Ride, Endless Jess, and Nobue Itou
I eat so much stress, my beard grows quicker
I'm ten pounds thicker from my facebook picture
Had a published auto-bio when I printed out my twitter
I've never read a book that wasn't with me on the shitter
I'm bitter over every bad comment that I've gotten
but unassailably self-confident since writing Rotten

and I'm holed up in my room
crankin' up the sub so the bass go boom
youtube surfin' on the couch with a box of goon
and just too much time, not enough to do

Bedroom Bedrock

Lyrics:
the broadcast news is all subjective
the truth ain't there, you can't protect it
I don't believe a thing you've said, bitch
I nod my head, ditch, and contemplate shit

all the best shit in life comes from you and I
from mankind, when they ain't fuckin' around
or stuck on the ground, or straight fuckin' it up
when they layin' great stuff in the cut, and gettin' the bucks
I go to see 'em sometimes
with a fat wallet I don't need a disguise
don't mention politics or the bad guys,
the high concepts, or the truth unrealized
look 'em in the eyes
I don't hate all of ya'll fuckers
but some of ya'll mothers got a need to get smothered
but I can set aside my druthers
for a waffle, and some chicken, and a lil' honey mustard--matter fact
let me live at IHOP
and eat gross tenders 'till my fuckin heart stop
set up a lil' booth where I can record my hip-hop
and drop in random patrons for podcast interviews

the broadcast news is all subjective
the truth ain't there, you can't protect it
I don't believe a thing you've said, bitch
I nod my head, ditch, and contemplate shit

My plate's legit completely full
with fat raps to eat and sick shit to pull
and thick chords to play, while I don't get no play
'cause I ain't got all day to swipe left on bitches
--that's inauthentic, but how I roll
I only pay attention when the dinner rolls come out, no doubt--
I like people for the art and food
and if I seem rude, that's cause I don't know ya, dude

the broadcast news is all subjective
the truth ain't there, you can't protect it
I don't believe a thing you've said, bitch
I nod my head, ditch, and contemplate shit

Humans Are Okay

Another track from Bedroom Bedrock, which may be coming soon?! Beat by MZShaidu as usual: https://soundcloud.com/mzshaidu/morroco

Lyrics:
Be yourself,  just as long you is just like me
Follow the rules, but don't give into society
We can be friends, just as long as you don't disagree with me
'Cause I know what's right, objectively

It's fine if you like me, but I don't identify as likable,
attractive, or good, by my own standard
I don't pander to those who would slander
my style or collect from my piles of grandeur
I get all the respect that I need from myself
So feel free to leave my disk on the shelf
I got no desires to stoke your fires
I'm not K.Dot nor am I Desiigner
I'm right on the fringe of acceptable and cringe
I make money on the fact that I anime binge
I'm unhinged, no one likes to admit when I'm right
cause I don't represent any side in their fight
and I'm white, but I rap like a motherfucka
while still livin' in the burbs with my parents and my brothas
playin' covers of songs that nobody respects
'cause there's not a single person whom I need to impress
money's all that I stress, and I ain't been depressed in a while
but my violence gets hard to suppress
when fuccbois mistake my patience for a test
and get flexed on harder than they ever expect
now look, this attitude is made of influence
and it would take a lot more than a minute to get into it
and I don't mind comparisons even if they're embarrassing
but I ain't sharing everything so don't think that know all about me
see we as human beings have the thing called empathy
that let's us perceive what others see without being where they been
so when I hear another man singin' stories of his sin
it don't mean that I know him, but I get the things he's sayin'
and that's why I grew up cultural appropriation
on every TV network and radio station
and all that culture is mine now
define me how you like but don't expect me to kowtow

Actualize

Get Action!

This is it! The last track for Bedroom Bedrock to be released on here! Playlist soon! Once more featuring the monstrous talents of Endless Jess! https://soundcloud.com/endlessjess And also of course https://soundcloud.com/mzshaidu Lyrics:

[Endless Jess]

people look at me the way they look at something sad
like a one legged charles dickens orphan with no dad
well i might be itty but i sure don’t need your pity
sticking to my guns hip hopping on the run
adversity don’t hurt me cause it only makes me stranger
i draw my power from the scars of every failure
swivel chair sailor, outlaw savior
miner for a heart of gold always hitting paydirt
el dorado, 2 hot desperados, 
we lie cheat and steal like we’re eddie and chavo
a loveable rascal, another fiasco
im scheming like keenan, aaah here goes
on nick ni nick ni nick
you can lick lick lick lick lick lick my dick

Underestimated by the born winners
but I’m burning you sinners, a fire spittin lord of cinder. 

[Digibro]

DAMN, half of all my favorite shit on this track!
If I can live up to that, then maybe tackle this fat
and stop stressin' all the tax on my stacks, I'd feel great
I can't wait to be full enough to push aside a plate
I may never be cool enough to look you in the face
But I'm just past schooled enough to put you in your place
No debate, my greatness ain't up for contest
I don't need to flex, bitch, I write my own tests
And I pass with no sweat, I suit myself
Monkey up, struttin', nothin' could pollute my wealth
Of good vibes, and fun times, and feelin' fresh
Spittin' rhymes and changin' minds, like Endless Jess
Not impressed? Categorically attracted to a fault
To the ideal of a rapper hittin' 80 by default?
Hold the salt, I don't need it baby, I'll get out and walk
I'm a giant, get your jack-ass off my beanstalk

Gragnor Adventures

Bolei meets Gragnor

Bolei Meets Gragnor

I know Above the Earth, Haunted isn't even finished yet, but when I heard this amazing beat by MZShaidu https://soundcloud.com/mzshaidu/dark-beat I immediately jumped on it, and what I wrote felt like it belonged on my promised next project, "Gay and Dead." I really like it!

Lyrics:

Please do not speak to me between 3 and 8 AM
I can't relate to you humans
On any terms but my own
Defined by my lifestyle and how I've grown
I gladly postpone my meetings with the daylight
So I can fight my demons by the moonlight
I might be a sailor scout, but not quite Tha Coolest Guy
You try to define me and find me shy;
But not from self-destruction
Pressing that button, that is my limited function

I couldn't be any gayer and deader if I tried
Sucking dick and committing suicide
I have no pride, no shame, and no scruples
Tho I don't hide, don't Bane-post, or shoot schools
Just eat noodles, and say nigga more than anyone else
I have no good excuses for myself
I am not what you wanted to hear
Unless your whole world's gotten too fuckin' weird:
That's when I will appear
And tell you it's all fucked
Just give it all up and come play in the muck
That I'm draggin' on up from the sewers and sprayin'
All over on everyone--yuck!

I'm kinda like a superhero, with all the powers of Brother Nero
Got that broken brilliance; once you die inside then it all starts to make sense.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"POKE" is a mixtape/compilation/thing, structured the same way as our 2017 "THAW" compilation.  The first 6 songs are from completely new musicians, who have never been on DESKPOP before, while the rest of the tracks are remixes of existing DESKPOP songs (with some of the remixers making their own DESKPOP debuts as well).

The title was decided upon because of the word's versatility.  As the first track by HiP CoLouR uses it, a poke can be to get someone's attention in a friendly but personal manner, as it implies physical contact.  "Poke" can also be used to describe how seedlings start to pop up out of the ground, similar to how the new producers on this compilation are poking their heads into the music industry.  And finally, a cactus will absolutely poke you if you mishandle it, so the word could have a more aggressive meaning attached to it, like how tracks from Cromulon Twins, pooldad & Low Poly have very in-your-face fun moments.

[DREAM EXPANSION / OUT NOW] Mintier Than Ever

4:27 on a sunday afternoon
try to gather the strength to clean my room
but you know i don't really want to
tonight i've got plans with the boys
everybody's coming over
i'd rather tap out
yeah i'd rather tap out
yeah this isn't a conglomerate
it's just another job now

I WANNA MAKE MONEY MONEY MONEY $$$$$
BUT I DON'T WANNA MOVE MY BODY BODY BODY
I WANNA TAP OUT
YOU KNOW I WANNA TAP OUT
BUT I'VE GOT A BOYFRIEND
AND I'VE GOT A JOB NOW
REAL WORLD THINGS ARE DEPENDING ON ME
SO I'VE GOTTA BE STRONG AND I GOTTA LEAVE MY BEDROOM

ooooo
ooooo
ooooo
ooooo

3 hours later
i'm more exhausted than i was
when i started recording this song about being too tired to do anything
and it dawned on me
i'm too broken
to do anything that i don't want to
it's a dysfunction
yeah it's just another day
it's just another day i have to act like i'm okay

I WANNA MAKE MONEY MONEY MONEY $$$$$
BUT I DON'T WANNA MOVE MY BODY BODY BODY
I WANNA TAP OUT
YOU KNOW I WANNA TAP OUT
BUT I'VE GOT A BOYFRIEND
AND I'VE GOT A JOB NOW
REAL WORLD THINGS ARE DEPENDING ON ME
SO I'VE GOTTA BE STRONG AND I GOTTA LEAVE MY BEDROOM

Real World Things

Tack 1 from The World Over. I know it's been 6 months since the last publicly-posted track, but the project has still been under way and it near completion!

Lyrics:

32 stories over average avenue
What a view, offerin' no vestibule to vegetables
Sort 'em through--here's how
politik than get out
Cobain for the e-clout
that won't fly in my house

I have watched this city burn
seen the turn to internment 
seen some cold shit
no atonement
Watched a whole mint
Inflate and go limp
Impotent wimps let
The planet fuckin' go to shit

Protecting their right to be worthless
With all of their might is their purpose
Cattle for corrupted socio-elites in silicon valley
To be hearded by wolves dressed like sheep
R.I.P. to the need for exception
Caress your erection for somebody else's perfection
Your lexicon you bought from someone
Now you come from your section to spread your infection

I taught you a lesson and then you forgot
Said you had work, you were getting a nut
Wandered away got a job and you're done
Nobody left now it just isn't fun
No one to overcome

Just me and my cache and the burning world
My stash in my stache and my twerkin' girl
A glance thru the glass and I shriek and twirl
Then emphatically dance to the cries that swirl
And swirl and swirl
 
Gathered thee are masses for the arming of the genophage
Slave wage junkies of the cyberslum underbelly
Burn your bridges, isolate yourself as public entities
Alienate everyone until you feel like somebody
One by one annihilated if you ain't a babyface
Picked out by the company so that you know you'll be replaced
Dead at forty-five because your time was being exlpoitated
Fated to the grave a symbol of the very thing you hated

I'm a bastard
Smokin' faster
Thru a glass bong
To a black hearse
You can ask her

Tech-N9ne with a hack//SIGN
Em no heroine, mo high, mo grime
less midwest, Ye West 'tude with a
few milly youtube views
and a crew fulla dudes who attest
To the true blue schooling I bless
You drooling peasants to when
I get the truth off my chest, yes
I am the dude who said whatever you heard I said
Two times to confirm then dead

Bled for the cause, wandered off to bed
Slept for a month, woke up underfed
Screamed for a plate, paid my dues again
Work 'till the pay can replace my friends
Tryin'a tie up all the loose ends on the world tree
Spiralling out on an infinite journey
Seeing my body from space and returning
Back to you fucks and pretend to be learning

I can't get no fade
Going when I can't relate
To the basic bitch shit all you dipshits
Consume every day
Drinkin' the Kool-Aid
Talkin' how you love the taste
All I drink is AIDS
Get me out this fucking place

NOT 'GON FUCK AROUND
WHEN IT COMES WE'RE GONNA DROWN
GET UP OUTTA TOWN
OR THEY FINDIN' YOU FACE-DOWN
