* AcclaimedFlop: ''The Money Store'' is a frequent pick for the band's best album, and also considered one of the greatest albums of the 2010s, but sold an abysmal 3,200 copies first week and fell off the main Billboard charts immediately.
* ArtistDisillusionment: Death Grips have a love/hate relationship with their fans, especially as time went on and certain fans became more invasive or obsessive -- compare "Bitch Please", where MC Ride extols his fans for looking for something beyond mainstream, to "Giving Bad People Good Ideas", which is specifically about how shallow-minded their fans are, and "Centuries of Damn", where he states he hates his fans and their unwillingness to break society... and, yet, confesses he loves them as well.

* ExecutiveMeddling: Creator/EpicRecords attempted to push back the date of ''NO LOVE DEEP WEB'''s release to some time in 2013, when the AlternateRealityGame they'd been running had hyped the original release date of October 23rd, 2012 for quite some time. Death Grips responded by ''immediately'' leaking the album (22 days ahead of schedule), with a photograph of a penis as the cover. On Halloween 2012, the band additionally leaked confidential letters from Epic, which pushed the label to officially drop them off.

* NoHitWonder: Despite having some of the biggest and most loyal fanbases on the internet that often surpasses that of mainstream artists, they never have an album debut on the top 40 on the main Billboard charts and they usually fall off the charts in one week and on other charts in less than a month and none of their singles even chart on any charts. Considering how experimental and non-mainstream their music is and how they often release their music for free, this is completely [[JustifiedTrope justified]].

* DoingItForTheArt: Their entire ethos. They released several of their works entirely for free and "broke up" mostly because they were afraid that this would be uncontrollably subverted. Not even ''Sony'' could stop them from [[{{Determinator}} doing what they want]], which they learned the hard way.
