Editor's note

Das Racist's absurdist humor and sharp wordplay

A Brooklyn rap trio whose viral food-chain anthem captured their deliberately silly yet clever style.

For their loose, funny side, 'Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell' still works. For something sharper, try 'You Oughta Know' or 'Rainbow in the Dark.'

Their track 'Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell' went viral in 2009, built on absurdist humor that felt both clever and deliberately silly. Songs like 'You Oughta Know' and 'Commercial' kept their wordplay sharp while avoiding traditional hip-hop posturing. They only stayed active a few years, but left a distinct mark on a certain corner of indie rap.

Das Racist formed in Brooklyn in 2008 with rappers Kool A.D., Dapwell, and Heems. They put out two albums, 'Relax' and 'Shut Up, Dude,' before Kool A.D. left in 2012. Internal tensions around creative differences contributed to the lineup change.

Archive material and source history

Das Racist formed in Brooklyn in 2008 with rappers Kool A.D., Dapwell, and Heems. Their track 'Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell' went viral the following year, built on absurdist humor and food references that felt both clever and deliberately silly.

They put out two albums, 'Relax' and 'Shut Up, Dude,' before Kool A.D. left in 2012. The group's lyrics often drew criticism for being provocative or disrespectful, and internal tensions around creative differences contributed to the lineup change.

Songs like 'Happy Rappy' and 'Rainbow in the Dark' kept their wordplay sharp and their style loose, avoiding traditional hip-hop posturing. They stayed active only a few years, but that was enough to leave a distinct mark on a certain corner of indie rap.
