Lil Peep’s ”hellboy” is the opening track of his third mixtape which can be considered as the “title track” of the tape. Peep narrates how he is experiencing this kind of a lifestyle he developed over his fast pacing career. He also refers to the struggles he had been through in his past and how he’s missed at home. Gus did not pick the name by chance—he knew that it came off as intimidating and scary to some. In reality, the title belongs to a hero who had a massive heart, a book only judged by its cover. Released In September 2016, songs such as “girls” and “OMFG” began to clock in millions of views and plays on Soundcloud and Youtube, bringing him even more than he could ever expect. This mixtape planted the roots of Lil Peep’s successful career. Produced by MoneyPosse members Smokeasac & Yung Cortex, they both have worked on various projects with Peep. It was recorded in a squat shared by Peep and his fellow producers in the south end of Skid Row, Los Angeles. The song samples the song “Too Bright To See, Too Loud to Hear” by Underoath. A music video for this song was released on October 31, 2018, through Midnight Cinema, just nearly one and a half years after the initial filming of the aforementioned video.
