EP 4 | All My Heroes Are Cornballs by JPEGMAFIA (2019)

January 04, 2023 • Ash • Season 1 • Episode 4

Self-proclaimed punk musical, “All My Heroes Are Cornballs” is rapper JPEGMAFIA’s third studio album! Released September 13, 2019 - Friday the 13th btw - AMHAC depicts the rapper’s ascension to a self-grandiose godlike status. Beginning the album with a “cynical ass prayer” and ending with the oppressor praying to him, JPEGMAFIA is definitively defiant. Backed by arrhythmic and jagged distortions, JPEGMAFIA aka Peggy aka Buttermilk Jesus aka Peanut Butter Thug aka Darksin Mason sets the stage ablaze with his hyperviolent and abrasive lyrics. Using his platform to come for racist trolls, keyboard warriors, and anyone else who stands in his way, Peggy’s brazen persona carves a lane of his own through punk, rap, and experimentation.

Singles include “Jesus Forgive Me, I Am A Thot” and “Free the Frail” ft. Helena Deland. Personal favorites are “Beta Male Strategies” - a fuck u to internet pussies, “PTSD” - autobiographical lyrical masterpiece, “PRONE!” - an anti-punk punk song! and “Papi I Missed U” - a direct threat.
