8CentGrape$ ft Raisin Heck

by @aeye · @carleybaer · @metalfoot · @catmisgivings

Liner Notes

This is another #slackcollab
This started because I'm now a hardened criminal. I bought some grapes today and the scale totally got the weight wrong and only charged me 8cents for like 4lbs. @metalfoot declared that I am now known as "8CentGrape$".
In typical #slackchat fashion we all just started writing silly rhymes and now we've got a full blown hiphop track.

@metalfoot on backing vox
@carleybaer on uke solo and backing vox/singing
@catmisgivings additional lyrics

This thing goes way harder then it should.

DJKA's Gear:
Empire Breaks
Forzo
Massive X
Deft Lines

Lyrics

its ya boy 8 cent grapes, runnin up and down while you make a face,
its ya boy 8 cent grapes, coming to your store for all your steaks

APPLES PEARS BANANAS TOO, EGGS TO COSTLY FOR ME AND YOU, STINKy FISH IN THE DELi, I GOTTA GO BUY A JAR OF JELLY
AUNTIE ANNES AND SUBWAY, MAKE ME FEEL KWEEE-zAY, SOMEONE MADe A SPILL ON THE FLOOR, LOOKS LIKE CLEANUP ON AISLE 4

Its ya boy 8 cent grapes, runnin up and down while you make a face,
its ya boy 8 cent grapes, coming to your store for all your steaks

Impulse buys at the lane
I just bought 10 pokemane
waste my money on figurines
when it should be used to fix my spleen
8c grapes stealin the scene
number 13 on his bean
creepin round the batteries
with 16 boards of charcuteries

Its ya boy 8 cent grapes, runnin up and down while you make a face,
its ya boy 8 cent grapes, coming to your store for all your steaks

8c grapes yeah he's the guy
Rappin' with that vocal fry
He's the homie from the hood
Making the fruit salad good

he's smiling, freestylin
checkout lane ignoring and rilin
the chicks that he picks
with all his references to 80s flicks

Its ya boy 8 cent grapes, runnin up and down while you make a face,
its ya boy 8 cent grapes, coming to your store for all your steaks

I know very little about tha hip hop other than they play lots of it at our gym. This track sounds just like one of them and I now have the urge to repeatedly pick up very heavy things and put them down again.
Pavlov's hip hop...? 🤔 🤣

Well, this is a fever dream I can get behind. We all need this a lot more. More please!

Well, this is a lot of fun, from the lyrics to the vocals to the mixing (blending?). Carley's backing really does add a layer.

Good message, too. So much rap nowadays is just an excuse to let out a little wine. I say this as someone without skin in the game. Thanks a bunch for this.

I can foresee further adventures in the supermarket for our spirited protagonist- no doubt some turf war between the blood oranges and the Cripps apples.
