"Part Shock G's Humpty Hump and part Skrilla's masked horrorcore, Burger Marty is the character of an anonymous Broward County rapper who wears a clown mask and a Haitian uncle get-up (down to the fake gut and Kohl's Cash outfit). On his ridiculous kompa send-up "Bring Custo," he weaves in and out of English and Creole and chants his favorite ad-lib, "Cheeseburger.""
"The rest of his lyrics he belts like the man at the party who's downed too many bottles of Prestige: "Can you cook me some diri?"; "Damn, I miss my labouyi." Funnily enough, the rest of his Behind the Mask tape is all Philly-style drill and South Florida scam rap with a sharp sense of humor. All he's missing is a couple of music videos to really bring it to life."
An anonymous Broward County rapper performs as Burger Marty, wearing a clown mask and a Haitian-uncle costume complete with a fake gut and Kohl's Cash outfit. He blends kompa parody with bilingual lyrics, switching between English and Haitian Creole and repeatedly chanting the ad-lib "Cheeseburger." He delivers other lines in a drunken-party voice, referencing Haitian foods like diri and labouyi. The Behind the Mask tape moves into Philly-style drill and South Florida scam rap, maintaining a sharp sense of humor. The project lacks only a few music videos to fully realize the character visually.
