Lyrics:
(When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you, they're not sending you. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists, and some I assume are— Great Dinner.)
(Hey, hey, hey, hey...)
It all could happen...
Where have you been...
Where have you been...
Artist commentary:
SplitSuns: (Composer)
This song was originally supposed to be for the .jpeg album, but I wasn't able to finish the song in time. When .jpeg was still in production and yaz showed me the track art he was designing, he expressed interest in having me return to the BLANK JIMMEE persona to create another vaportrap song. I was more than happy to return to the character, especially since I had recently acquired the synth Massive. This let me use some of the instruments Blank Banshee himself used in his songs! For Echo Chamber in general, I wanted to make the song more in the vein of Blank Banshee's most recent album, MEGA. This meant more intricate production and layered samples than before. I used a lot of sounds from various video games, and also tried to chop and screw vocals more than I had with the previous song (especially with my main man Donald Trump, may his reign last a thousand years.) This song was very complicated, but I think it all came together in the end. To those of you familiar with Blank Banshee's work, I hope I was able to pull off his sound convincingly. To those of you who aren't, I hope the song sounds good regardless!
