Music Downloads & Lyrics
Hey everyone, Anthony Fantano here, the
internet's busiest music nerd. I hope
you're doing well. Today we're talking
about politicians doing music, which
like you know they've been known to do.
Enter in Michigan State Rep. Josh
Shrivever, who um is is quite the
individual. Uh quite quite the
individual. First off, he has to have
the most cursed Wikipedia bio photo I've
ever seen of a living human being in my
life. Like, even if this man's politics
110% aligned with my own, I would have a
difficult time staring that that uh
pained smile with the squinty eyes in
the face. There's some some real pain
behind uh that expression there. Some
real pain. I don't think I could smile
like this if I tried. you know, this is
a smile of you're you're trying to cover
some real trauma or something. Do I look
happy? Do I look happy to you? But yeah,
not only does it turn out that this
man's uh bio photo is pretty wild, his
politics are pretty wild, too. He was
stripped of his staff, his funds, and
his committee assignments uh in the
Michigan House because of a post he made
on the internet endorsing the idea of
great replacement theory, which is like
this very racist conspiracy that I I
don't do. we need to get into it. So,
there's that. He's also on the record as
wanting to overturn gay marriage. Has
Oberfeld vhajes not widened a portal
where gays, queers, transsexuals,
polygamists, minor attracted persons,
and other perverts advance attacks on
our children? Not a great guy. Not the
best guy. Obviously, a dude who has made
it his life mission to make people
suffer uh just because they're different
than him. And apparently that mission
also extends to the world of music
because now Josh Shrivever wants to make
people suffer who uh enjoy it. Now for
Josh, this whole music thing is nothing
new. He's released like raps and promo
music in order to you know get people
like really hype and excited for uh him
representing them in Congress.
My name is Josh. I represent you. I came
to spit fire. Let me tell you what I do.
I do the best I can. Trust in God and
not in man. I post all my V reasons. I'm
consistent every season. Check me out.
Yeah, the man is just dripping with
charisma. I mean, when he said, "Check
me out." The just the chills that just
ran down my spine. I I can't describe
them. But you know what? What you've
heard here is actually just the tip of
the iceberg and very very listenable and
palatable in comparison to what I'm
about to show you, which is apparently
like some music off of an album he's put
out, which artistically I would say is
like a musical decathlon of sorts. Josh
really explores the outer reaches on
this song over here of his vocal
talents, range, and abilities, and just
all the different genres that influence
him. He's just a a musical chameleon.
You can't pigeon hole this guy. He's not
just a rapper or a singer or a
songwriter or any of those things. He He
is everything. He contains multitudes.
As you will hear on this track I'm about
to play you. And believe me, you are not
ready for this. And just when you think
you're acclimating to whatever psychotic
idea, musically speaking, Josh is trying
to get across here. He hits you with
another left hook, you're going to enjoy
this. I do want to do a quick shout out
though to Right-Wing Watch, who uh
posted this uh publicly and and made it
so that Austin and I caught it. They
kind of had a posting about this song
saying, "Don't quit your day job,
Michigan State Rep. Josh Shrivever." I
disagree. I feel like Josh should be
doing this instead of politics. As bad
as this song is, uh, society speaking,
this is a lot less harmful to the world
than him being in a seat of power and
influence in any way. Josh, if you are
watching this video, I fully encourage
you to do more of this and just do only
this. Don't do anything else. But yeah,
let's hear this complete and total
banger uh that Josh has pulled together
over
here. I just took some
pre-workout. I guess that means that I
should
lift. Faithfulness replaces
doubt. In this life, you'll have some
dips. I can stop myself from doing what
I ought not do. Okay, so as you can hear
from the first section of the song here,
Josh like really big early 2010s Cloud
Rap influence going on. You could tell
this guy's like really on that early Lil
B ASAP Rocky wave. Really uh you know, a
lot of parallels to guys like Clam's
Casino over here. He just loves those
spacey trap beats. And Josh lyrically,
he's telling it like it is. He's telling
us about his real experiences. He takes
some pre-workout and then he's going to
lift. Who would have thought to do that?
The man's an innovator. He also starts
gesturing toward the Holy Spirit here as
well. Uh telling us that uh you know in
life you're gonna have some dips. You
got to be faithful. And the advice
continues deeper into the track.
Self-control is what the Holy Spirit
will produce.
God.
Okay. First off, I kind of feel like
that lyric about uh you know uh not
doing what you ought not do, it's a bit
of a mask off moment. Like what are you
trying to not do, Josh? What desires or
wants or uh dark thoughts lurking in
your freaky little head? Um are you
trying to uh deny? Oh yeah, and I don't
know if you noticed there, but we have
like a total rap hip house change up
there with uh Josh really leaning into
his angelic singing voice. You've got to
call and you're gone. You've got to call
on your dad. Now, for like any normal
song uh created by somebody who is
obviously like a weirdo, uh that would
be the one bad cringe or strange vocal
moment or unexpected uh uh shift that a
song like this would have. But no, man.
Josh, he he's got more ideas than that
lurking in his uh very tortured mind.
I'm not talking crazy. Cracker the name
like A. Jesus came to save me. Shout out
to the AP. Get your credit before you
turn 18. Go to Ivy League. It's okay to
read. Thank you, Josh. Didn't know it
was okay to read uh before you said
that. I was a little on the fence about
literacy uh before I heard this song,
but now I have heard it and I'm like,
you know what, actually reading kind of
sold on it. I think it's uh maybe a good
idea to read. Really glad that Josh is
uh shedding some light on all of that.
But um look, musically speaking, I've
said this before and I've been building
up to this. You are not prepared for
what this song is about to do next. I
feel like the only point of comparison
uh that I could make here is that Josh
is very clearly um an Ariana Grande fan,
big Mariah Carey fan. He loves hitting
those whistle notes. Not only is the guy
maybe more of a singer than he is a
rapper, but he's not going to let
something silly like Pitch and Key keep
him from really reaching for the stars
on this banger.
I'm smiling like him now. The power of
music. A sharks, you didn't have to
bring any food. Oh, he hit us with the
the ash sharks. I've come to let it rip.
We're in a predicament. We're in a
predicament. It's like if uh the B-52s
were painfully straight or something. I
I I don't I don't know. Wow. Wow. State
Rep. Josh Shrivever. Uh, hidden hidden
underappreciated musical talent right
there with a smile only a mother could
love. I'm I'm going to leave it there
because um I I feel like you guys don't
deserve any more pain.
Let me know what you think of this track
in the comments. I'm sure it's your song
of the year. Um and uh
