And all the while, Bootie Brown is killing it on the mic. The first is full of zany, sample-based antics, all having to do with food. And the third; a synth-based electronic masterpiece. Dealing with the unavoidable issue of loneliness, 2-D spouts all of his feelings out there, in as numb a tone as ever.
Be trying not to laugh though. It relies on a much more straightforward approach to songwriting, and with it, paints a gorgeous metaphorical picture of their shadowy world. The two vastly different takes combine into something fun-but-sad. She provides a brand new perspective to the internal issues 2-D illustrates throughout the rest of the record, effectively responding to the distressed band member. But occupying all that blank space is the concerned 2-D, or as many argue, Damon Albarn.
Following this is then a quick explosion of both sound and emotion, with Little Dragon expanding on all of the ideas he set up. Through some additional glowing synths, they tell the tale of humans, and their similarities to an ant-like empire.

It's got classic Gorillaz rump-shaking buffooner, a cool hook, a cartoonish attitude, and blistering verses from De La Soul. The feature won each a Grammy for Best Pop Collaboration. That wild laugh in the background is everything that makes Gorillaz what they are -- they're mad with genius, and the only way off their twisted carnival ride is to dance.
