Last we saw from Fool’s Paradise, it was something along the lines of a sexy Jedi Jesus. It’s a little harder to exactly pinpoint the narrative this time, but a first guess might be Barbie the robot-alien-headed bounty hunter who likes to keep her boobs well ventilated.

7-track EP featuring Young Thug, Juvenile, A$AP Ferg & more
