"Killing Darnell" by the fictional rapper Gun Rack is a bizarre mix of self-incrimination and parody, blending absurd lyrics like “I killed Darnell, yeah I shot him with my nine” with hilariously specific details that completely undermine his supposed innocence. The track takes things to another level with lines about tossing a “long-ass gun” into an aquarium and claiming a Red Lobster alibi despite a shellfish allergy. It’s a satirical masterpiece that feels uncomfortably close to reality, toeing the line between ridiculous storytelling and scarily believable rap tropes. The result is a chaotic, over-the-top confession that somehow manages to be both wildly entertaining and a little too on-the-nose.
