Lil Clip

Donald Cliponius Jr., known by his stage name Lil Clip, is an Irish meme rapper who was one of the first few artists signed to WTF Records. He currently has two mixtapes and one EP released.
=== Origin, Creation of YouTube Channel, and Clipmatic (December 2023) ===
After being inspired by the many meme rappers of Flex Entertainment, Clip decided to make a YouTube and Bandlab account, making and then releasing his first single "Best in the Game" with a self produced beat and freestyled lyrics. He then released another single "Gucci Bling" which was another freestyle over a DistantCry beat. He then released the album "Clipmatic" containing 14 tracks, the last one being 22 minutes long, which details Clip going through a downward spiral after the death of his mother. This would then later conside with a trilogy (inspired by Tyler, The Creator's Wolf Trilogy) where Clip goes mentally insane and develops a murderous alter-ego known as "Fuckboy". This would then later be scrapped and the only single released was "Famous, pt. 2" which was a cover of the Kanye West song "Famous" off of his album "The Life of Pablo".
=== Rebrand, attempted signing to Flex Entertainment and eventual signing to WTF Collective (January 2024) ===
Clip decided to rebrand his style, deleting all traces of his old work from YouTube and Bandlab, now being lost media. Clip made four demos to attempt to get signed to Flex Entertainment, then discovering the Flex Discord Server and posting songs into the #flex-submissions channel. After a few attempts and advice from Flex Artists, he changed up his sound. A member of the Flex Server, Yung T, then sent him an invite link to a server named "WTF Collective" which he joined and submitted a demo called "Slow Jamz 2" which he also submitted in the Flex Server. This would lead to him getting signed by collective owner, Yung Slayer.
=== Game Shaker (January - February 2024) ===
Starting recording on January, Clip began to work on his debut mixtape, Game Shaker. It was initially delayed for a bit as it originally had two features from former member, Yung Stiff Rick. The songs that he was featured on were both deleted, meaning that they are lost media. The mixtape was first recorded on Audacity, which is the reason why the vocals on most songs sound low quality. The rest of the mixtape was then recorded using Bandlab's DAW. There were four singles released, W.A.D.Y. (We All Die Young), Grounded featuring Yung Slayer, Slow Jamz 2 featuring Lil $crotum and Lil Gibberish (a persona played by Yung Slayer), and Break Up 2 featuring Yung Slayer and Playchild Carlton, a character played by Clip as a parody of Atlanta rapper, Playboi Carti. The mixtape was released on the 12th of February and was met with a mixed reception. One particular review from Yung T on Album of the Year stated that the mixtape was a letdown, and Clip had potential to make a better release. The mixtape was also criticized for its overuse of Yung Slayer features, as Clip and him were developing a big friendship during the recording sessions for the mixtape. Looking back on some of the songs, Clip has stated that he regrets making some of them, especially the track "Keep Yo Kids Away" where he jokingly states about performing sexual acts on minors.
