The pizza party might have ended, but the journey has just begun for Chicago rapper ShowYouSuck. Indeed, the darker themes hidden amongst the the One Man Pizza Party mixtapes have been done away with, replaced with the sunny optimism found in “80’s Boobs,” the first single from ShowYouSuck’s upcoming EP, Dude Bro. As I alluded to with last week’s “Hang 10” music video, Dude Bro follows a specific visual and musical theme, and “80’s Boobs” best represents the tonal direction for Dude Bro as a whole.
Produced by theWHOevers‘ J Arthur, “80’s Boobs” just exudes an ’80s vibe with its prevalent synths and keys and Show’s ’80s film references. Keen listeners will pick up on a loose narrative over the song that further drives the ’80s theme home. ShowYouSuck isn’t a joke rapper; he’s a rapper that has jokes, and much like his back catalog of songs, there’s more to his lyrics than the hook. Although, to be fair, “You got boobs from an ’80s movie” is way too catchy to ignore.
You can purchase “80’s Boobs” from iTunes here. Keep your eyes and ears open for Dude Bro when it’s also released on iTunes on November 26th. Want to know a secret? It’s really, really good.
