When Johnny Venus and Wowgr8– known collectively as the Dreamville duo EarthGang–released Mirrorland last September, it immediately stood out as a potent piece of hip-hop magical realism. In fact, an argument could even be made that the pair concocted one of the most original albums of the last few years, blending surreal soundscapes with grassroots charm and Atlanta soul. Now, several months removed from the initial release, Olu and Gr8 have come through with some appropriately psychedelic visuals for the introductory “LaLa Challenge.”

The animation calls back to the worldbuilding first established on their three-part EP series Rags, Robots, and Royalty, a science-fiction inspired dystopia brimming with character. As expected, the clip aims to stimulate on a sensory level, with the climactic section playing out in a cacophonous explosion of color. Following the previous visuals for “Swivel,” which borrowed heavily from the horror genre, “LaLa Challenge” continues to prove that EarthGang’s creativity stretches far beyond the realm of audio.

Lyrics

[Intro: Johnny Venus]
Come on
Sit down in here and get comfortable
Place your head on the mat
Place your feet to the sky
What you think about that?

[Verse 1: Johnny Venus]
Everybody trappin’, everybody hard
Everybody fuckin’, everybody broad
Niggas slayin’ bitches, all the women bored
Paint your nails and stroke that pussy cat ’til I’m off tour
One in ten is gangsta, hardest in the yard (What’s up then nigga, what’s up? Do somethin’, what’s up, what’s up, what’s up?)
Two of ten gon’ tango, rest of y’all is fraud
People of the land, won’t you take my hand?
Come inside these walls, hundred round applause
Step out the car like the bad girl and pause the beat (Ooh)
Stop the world, give it a twirl when I move my feet, make sacred ground
‘Cause you brown don’t mean you down (No, no, no, no, no)
‘Cause you white don’t mean you right
‘Cause I’m lost don’t mean you found (Uh)

[Verse 2: Doctur Dot]
I got the sauce like Italians
Digital love don’t mean shit to me, bitch, I can tell you a catfish (No, no)
Came from the bottom, trained how to spot ’em
Stayin’ on my toes
Came from the slaves and the sharecroppers
Sang with bravado
Hang with some thugs that be changin’ some diapers
Still don’t take shit, take aim at your collar, pow
Yeah, yeah, yeah, ah-hah
One to the head, now you know he dead
My daily routine consists of making sure everybody fed
So I could never love a bitch that’s givin’ everybody headphones, on perpetual (Oh-oh)
Lock in all your perpetrators (Uh)
Auntie taught your third graders (Uh)
Cousin probably served your neighbors
Nigga, what you need?
Take you up like the elevator
Escalation, sacrifice, determination

[Interlude]
Yeah, um
Ayy, y’all still got that falcon special?

No
What the fuck you mean you ain’t got the spalcon special?
Alright, never mind
Let me get a ten piece nuclear, extra wet
And don’t have my fries soggy
Last time I came here my fries was extra fuckin’ soggy
Y’all rice fresh?
Aw, hell nah, you hesitated
Man, anyway, let me get a
ten piece lemon pepper, extra crispy
Another ten piece
Man, bitch, I want half and half
Barbecue, don’t forget the fries
Oh, lemon pepper, half mild, wet
Add an extra fry too
‘Cause y’all be skimpin’
I don’t wanna hear none of that shit like y’all did last time, for real
Ayy, add a twenty piece teriyaki
Oh yeah, don’t forget any my drinks either

[Verse 3: Doctur Dot]
Voodoo man, chicken, bomb, fishscale
If you don’t leave now, you will never get there
Tried to go legit, but that shit ain’t sit well
I done tried to split your wig, but don’t split hairs
My bitch thick, good hair and good skin care
Call the other line and dip, my hoes sit well
Probably ’cause of promises that don’t get here
I’ma talk to God so much when I get there

[Verse 4: Johnny Venus]
One time, one time for your baby moms
Two time for the hand in the candy jar
Holy Ghost showed up in my favorite thong
Three times in the car for the way we are
Another white man scared, another black man dead
Another rich man war, another red man bled
I been writing this album down way too long
When I drop my shit, pray it hit the toilet like
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la

[Outro: Johnny Venus]
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
