Kill Urself My Man

OS-??? On February 27, 2013, Viper, still relatively unknown by this point, released "I Have the Best Piece and Chain Ever Made". The first eight songs of the album were brand new, along with 7 old ones under new titles. Viper had made a habit in the last three years of making duplicate releases under different names, such as "Plush Player" and "You'll Never Smoked Crack". He hoped that releasing more albums had the chance of giving him more exposure, and thus break him out of obscurity. The songs on Best Piece were incredibly strange. Viper had gone all-in this time on the R&B side of things, with these songs featuring more singing from him than any other Viper material in the past. One song featured an entire verse sampled from a song autotuned in entirely the wrong pitch, with Viper slurring through his verse completely. In May 2013, You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Crack and Viper at large was discovered by /mu/ and various college outlets, who began reporting on him. Viper, with his newfound fame, sought to capitalise on this, and started to do one of the things he is most known for today - release an absurd amount of albums. Album covers would be made by curious new fans, and sent directly to him. In 2014 alone, he was reported to release 347 albums, all of which were made of recycled material. This increased his publicity but also buried his previous works, and made them extremely difficult to distinguish. One of these albums was "Kill Urself My Man", which instantly became one of his most recognisable albums due to the cover and name. The original version consisted of 6 of the 8 original songs from Best Piece, and altered material taken from These Rappers... and The Paper Man. Kill Urself's title and cover is used here just because it's so much more iconic. This release comprises of five tracks present on both Best Piece and Kill Urself, and the two that are present solely on Best Piece. The one missing track from Best Piece, "Can't Stop Me From Snowbirdin'" found a place on Viper's subsequent album, "Rich and NOT Famous", and so is not included here. As such, Kill Urself could also be considered a companion album to Rich and NOT Famous. "Ball" was also present on an album released in 2010: "Gleam". The original form of Kill Urself My Man, "I Have the Best Piece and Chain Ever Made", was originally released 27 February 2013. "Kill Urself My Man" itself was originally released 13 April 2014.
