History YMMV / DannyBrown

** "Ain't It Funny" is a song about Danny's personal demons and the horrible things they've led to. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7L4JnAuW00k The "Ain't It Funny" music video]] bares these problems before a live studio audience in the form of a [[SubvertedSitcom perverted sitcom]], where they are laughed at like the wacky antics of an eccentric neighbor. [[spoiler:The audience keeps on laughing as Danny gets [[AnthropomorphicVice stabbed to death by drugs]], whom he describes as one of his only friends.]]

* ParodyDisplacement: In the previously mentioned article by Tourmate Kitty Pryde, many people take Danny Brown’s lyrics at face value, not understanding that he is ''criminally'' unserious. In the article mentioned on the main page, tourmate Kitty Pryde calls them ‘‘Gropers’’:
-->Then there are the gropers, and the girl who blew Danny onstage is one of these. Gropers watch a lot of MTV and tweet about A$AP Rocky until Website/YouTube recommends them “I Will,” which they listen to 500 times and don’t pay attention to anything else. They take everything Danny raps about 100% literally, and assume that before the show we're all backstage licking molly off each other’s buttholes. They often wear tube tops, even in Michigan where it was cold as fuck. Sometimes they come back to our hotel with us, and I’ve even parked their cars for them when they’re too drunk to drive. Usually I like them, because they all try to suck up to me and it's hard to hate people who are being extremely nice to you. I also usually like them because everyone should have the chance to seduce their favorite rapper.

* {{Hipster}}: Danny has described himself as such in a few tracks.
** In ''Lonely'':
-->Hipster by heart but I can tell you how the streets feel
** That line is actually a quote from Music/AsapRocky's "Demon".

* RetroactiveRecognition: Sadly averted with his earlier stuff, which is rarely spoken of.
* {{Sequelitis}}: Inverted by ''The Hybrid'' and ''Xxx'', at least critically.

* CrazyAwesome: The epitome of this in rap.

-->The instrumental for "Lost" is really spacey and eerie, especially with that sample of the woman in the background.
