All Caps
Ugly Mac Beer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So nasty that it's probably somewhat of a travesty having me
Daily told the people "You can call me Your Majesty!"
Keep your battery charged
You know it won't stick, yo
And it's not his fault you kick slow
Should've let your trick 'ho chick hold your sick glow
Plus nobody couldn't do nothin' once he let the brick go
And you know I know that's a bunch of snow
The beat is so butter
Peep the slow cutter
As he utter the calm flow (Your mother)
Don't talk about my moms, yo
Sometimes he rhyme quick, sometimes he rhyme slow
Or vice versa
Whip up a slice of nice verse pie
Hit it on the first try
Villain: the worst guy
Spot hot tracks like spot a pair of fat asses
Shots of the scotch from out of square shot glasses
And he won't stop 'til he got the masses
And show 'em what they know not through flows of hot molasses
Do it like the robot to headspin to boogaloo
Took a few minutes to convince the average bug-a-boo
It's ugly, like look at you
It's a damn shame
Just remember ALL CAPS when you spell the man name

And you know it like a poet, like baby doll
I bet she tried to say she gave me her all, she played ball
All bets off! The Villain got the dice rigged
And they say he accosted the man with the sliced wig
Allegedly; the investigation is still ongoing
In this pesky nation he gots the best con flowin'




The pot doubles, now they really got troubles
Madman never go *pop!* like snot bubbles

Overall Meaning

The song "All Caps" by Ugly Mac Beer is a classic example of MF DOOM's unorthodox rap style. The opening lines of the song "So nasty that it's probably somewhat of a travesty having me / Daily told the people 'You can call me Your Majesty!'" introduce his persona as a villainous character with a god complex. He warns his opponents to keep their battery charged because he's too powerful to be stopped. This sets the tone for the rest of the song, where he boasts about his lyrical prowess and ability to spot hot tracks.


Throughout the song, MF DOOM demonstrates his ability to switch up his rhyming style. He can rhyme quickly or slowly and play with the tempo of the beat. He peppers his verses with references to pop culture, such as the phrase "bug-a-boo" and the use of scotch from square shot glasses. He also mocks the idea of trying to convince him to change his ways, saying "It's ugly, like look at you / It's a damn shame." The chorus, which repeats the phrase "ALL CAPS" emphasizes his larger-than-life personality.

I bet she tried to say she gave me her all, she played ball
I had a woman who claimed to give me her 100% loyalty, but she was just pretending and never kept her promise


All bets off! The Villain got the dice rigged

The stakes and risks have doubled, leading to more challenges and problems to face


Madman never go *pop!* like snot bubbles
I'm a madman in music, never going to fade away like snot bubbles

MF DOOM: Makes entire song about how his name is spelt in all caps
Grammys: mf doom

@flaviahidalgo7376

Deadass yo 🤦🏽‍♀️

@SeekerGoldstone

It only JUST occured to me that not only is his name spelled with capital letters... but also, all of his history is fictional. Its "all caps". They made it all up in the lab.

@@SeekerGoldstone Super interesting slang connection there, you're so right! Love this additional level of meaning you've discovered/added. Props!
