History Music / LilB

* {{Bishonen}}: A self-proclaimed one, at that!

** ''Rain in England'', ''I'm Gay (I'm Happy'', and ''Angels Exodus'', like ''Illusions of Grandeur'', are all also more serious tonally, have almost no "cooking" songs whatsoever, and are more new age-inspired.

* DreamTeam:
** The Based God and Music/ElliottSmith in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-IYSl4I-4I The Worlds Ending]]".

* NeoclassicalPunkZydecoRockabilly: Just enough to qualify for this trope. Some of his earlier mixtapes such as ''Dior Paint'' and ''Rain In England'' are much more spoken word monologues over {{Ambient}}-style instrumentals than actual rapping. Example: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BOeTJz-Eag TV to the Internet]]".

* SitcomArchNemesis: To NBA player Kevin Durant, whom he cursed to never win an NBA title after Durant tweeted about not understanding Lil B's popularity. Lil B has also challenged Durant to a one-on-one game of basketball and released a diss track titled "Fuck KD."

* [[AGodAmI A Based God Am I]]

* [[RealMenWearPink Real Men Wear Tiny Pants]]: Lil B is known for, and proudly proclaims, his love of short shorts and tight pants. From "I'm God":

* StealthParody: His cooking songs are undoubtedly this, as they are based on satirizing rap stereotypes and making fun of hip-hop conventions. There are ''loads'' of people who take him at face value and think he's being serious without having heard any of his actual attempts at rapping like ''Illusions of Grandeur''. And then there are the people who [[MisaimedFandom think his cooking songs are good]].

* BoastfulRap: Of the surreal variety. Lil B has claimed that he [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1GcxENVOCM looks like Jesus]], compares himself to Creator/EllenDegeneres, ParisHilton, UsefulNotes/BillClinton, and Music/JustinBieber, to name but a few.
