Where satire meets rap and humor dances with beats, there’s one artist who reigns supreme in blending witty lyrics with outrageous visuals: The MC Type. And now, in a groundbreaking collaboration with LyricVids.com, he’s taking his latest hit, “Full Life Crisis” to a whole new level.
For those unfamiliar, The MC Type is not your average rapper. Hailing from the United States but currently making waves in New Zealand, he’s a triple threat—rapper, singer, and comedian all rolled into one. Known for his off-the-wall song concepts and side-splitting music videos, The MC Type has carved out a niche in the industry with his unmatched blend of catchy hooks and killer punchlines.
With a career spanning over a decade, the independent rapper rose to prominence between 2007 and 2014 while based in Seattle, WA. During this time, he graced national rap tours, sharing stages with heavyweights like Prof, Grieves, and Mac Lethal. His rap group, The Let Go, even secured record deals and charted on CMJ, making waves in the industry. After a hiatus spent exploring TV commercial writing, The MC Type is back with a vengeance, unleashing his latest album, “Lucky Silverback“ to critical acclaim. But it’s his newest single, “Full Life Crisis” that’s capturing attention, and for good reason.
“Full Life Crisis” is more than just a song—it’s a satirical journey through the absurdities of modern life. Teaming up with underground legend Sage Francis and beat maestro Pen Pointz, Type delivers a tongue-in-cheek exploration of all the ways one could potentially “ruin their life.” From cheating spouses to laced weed, the lyrics tread the fine line between humor and social commentary, leaving listeners wondering, “Is this guy serious?“
In a stroke of genius, Type opted for an animated lyric video for “Full Life Crisis” and for good reason. With collaborators scattered across the globe, filming a traditional music video proved challenging. Animated lyric videos not only offer a creative solution but are also more cost-effective—a win-win for independent artists. Enter LyricVids.com, the go-to destination for professional animated lyric videos. Collaborating with the artists, we brought the song to life with custom illustrated puppet characters, courtesy of The Paper Prophet. These animated creations add a graphic-novel flair to the music video, perfectly complementing the song’s irreverent tone.
Filled with hilarious visuals, the track’s lyric video is a riotous romp through Type’s twisted imagination. From puppets driving sports cars to teenage marriages, the visuals spare no expense in delivering laugh-out-loud moments. And let’s not forget the NSFW scenes that will have you doubling over with laughter.
Animated lyric videos are gaining traction in the music industry, particularly in the rap and hip-hop genre. With their ability to showcase flashy visuals of wealth, excess, and, yes, sexy women, they’re a perfect match for the larger-than-life personas of many rappers. For up-and-coming artists looking to make a splash, an animated lyric video is the ideal choice for content creation, helping to generate buzz and stand out in a crowded market. While platforms like Fiverr offer animation services, opting for a professional company like LyricVids.com ensures top-notch quality and attention to detail. With years of experience and a portfolio of satisfied clients, we bring expertise and creativity to every project, elevating artists like The MC Type to new heights.
