PAYDAY returns today with the release of her ‘House Of PUKE’ compilation album, featuring previously released tracks from all three volumes of her popular ‘P.U.K.E. Tapes’ (PAYDAY’s Unbelievably Killer EP) series of EPs, plus three previously unreleased new tracks. ‘House of PUKE’ is out now via COR / TAN Records.
On focus track, “Ode To Soulja Girl,” PAYDAY links up with Bay Area hip hop collective, AG Club, who recently dropped their debut album FYE (Fuck Your Expectations) Pt 1 and Pt 2 earlier this spring, and whom she will be joining on tour as support for their upcoming North American tour this year.
Listen to “Ode To Soulja Girl” (feat. AG Club) HERE.
‘House of PUKE’, which includes recent releases such as “Beam Part 2” (feat. Jackboy) as well as P.U.K.E. Tapes Vol. 3 highlights “Dolphin,” with it’s thumping, menacing bass line and actual dolphin samples, “Big Boy” where PAYDAY’s motormouth lyrical acrobatics collide with the affirmation, “I’m a girl, I’m a girl, yeah I know, but I got a big mouth and a big boy flow” and “Cry” exploring “toxic masculinity” and the tendency for men to keep their emotions bottled up, doing everything in their power to maintain that stereotypical “machismo” image, alongside surefire classics like “Guts,” (which NYLON hailed as “a sweet lil’ love song for the love-avoidant), “Lil Green Car” (from P.U.K.E. Tapes Vol. 2) and “Molang” (from P.U.K.E. Tapes Vol. 1) ‘House of PUKE’ plays like an ultimate PAYDAY Greatest Hits album.
On the origins of the ‘P.U.K.E. Tapes’ title, she explains, “I do so many different things…I’ll make a poppier song, or I’ll go in and really spit, or I’ll get depressed. It’s literally like puke, so I made this acronym with a deeper meaning: Payday’s Unbelievably Killer EP. It’s a random assortment of songs…like word vomit.”
