As an emcee, Duncecap has self-released two EP's and two full-length projects since 2011; as of Friday, December 6, 2019, Duncecap has returned with his next project before year's end. miserable then is a 5-track EP entirely produced by ELUCID (Armand Hammer, CULT FAVORITE, Nostrum Grocers, The Lessondary) and recorded, mixed, and mastered by Willie Green at The GreenHouse Recording Co.

miserable then opener "Waste of Money" features scratches throughout provided by Samurai Banana, guitar by Andrew Gialanella on "To Love Your Enemy Is to Love Yourself" & "What Have I Done to Myself?" and additional vocals on the latter provide by Quelle Chris. Contrary to Duncecap's previous largely self-produced body of work, miserable then is entirely produced by ELUCID and it's his first time ever producing a full project for another artist, as well. miserable then is a phenomenal juxtaposition of both Duncecap & ELUCID's own personal styles, sonically jelled into one, creating a great EP to be released before year's end. miserable then has arrived accompanied by a music video for "Waste of Time" directed by Rob Yaskovic/Mike Petrow AKA Duncecap, shot by Rob Yaskovic, edited by Mike Petrow, and a set piece built by Mo Niklz. Duncecap & ELUCID's miserable then EP is now available to purchase directly from billy woods' own Backwoodz Studioz.


"Miserable Then is a collaborative EP from Brooklyn-based rapper Duncecap and producer ELUCID (1/2 of ARMAND HAMMER,) set for release by Backwoodz Studioz on December 6th, 2019. In a departure from his previous work, Duncecap sinks into ELUCID's brooding tones and soundscapes. It's a mature step for Duncecap, eschewing the whimsical slant of his earlier work for something closer to the bone.

The EP, also, finds ELUCID treading new ground; it's his first full project producing for another artist and this collaboration operates on entirely different wavelengths than his work with Armand Hammer or Nostrum Grocers. Miserable Then is an intimate affair; an unsparing examination of the artists' life and relationships that still covers a lot of ground in its short run time, veritably begging for repeat listens."

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

Liberty Bell Cracked In 1/2: Ween - "Freedom of '76" (Gene Ween's Final Send-Off)

Chocolate & Cheese (1994) was one of the first albums I bought with my own money. I was in some sort of BMG Music Club , where you'd buy 5 CD's and then get 10 for "FREE." It was all sent through mail order and you picked the titles from some special booklet. I'm almost positive that Chocolate & Cheese's side boob-baring album cover was what initially drew me in... mind you, I was 12-15 and the zany Ween logo/middle finger CD graphic really didn't hurt either. Honestly, I forget how I really felt about it @ the time, but a few years later, my older cousin Josh told me that Ween were this BIG college "jam band." CKY did some sort pf 93.3 radio takeover to promote their new album and played "Freedom of '76" late that night on air. Needless to say, I re-visited Chocolate & Cheese @ about 20-something this go 'round and I fucking loved it! Ween were really weird, yet talented... almost too talented. I can vaguel
