4[[https://www.youtube.com/user/gmcfosho gmcfosho]], also known as Gil [=McRipley=], is a Website/YouTube rapper who parodies SwagRap and other kinds of BoastfulRap music. Everything he makes has a StylisticSuck quality to it, that combines legitimately clever wordplay with terrible special effects and RougeAnglesOfSatin lyrics.
5
6All of his tracks are part of the ever-expanding multi-part album ''Gil Killed Hip Hop'', which its creator claims will indeed be the end of hip-hop because nobody could ever top that.

9!!No non-swag tropes @ da page:
10* AffectionateParody: "GTFO" is one of ''[[VideoGame/ParappaTheRapper [=PaRappa=] the Rapper]]'', with Gil as [=PaRappa's=] teacher.
11* AwesomenessIsAForce: Swag, in Gil's case. In "Ally Carr", he says it's his life force.
12* BeyondTheImpossible: A regular feature of his lyrics.
13** In "#swag", for example:
14--> So hot that I'm cold
15--> And it's snowing
16** In "werldstarr":
17--> I filmed this video with a book
18** In "The Real Ryan Goslin":
19--> I don't even need words to rap.
20* ContinuityNod: In "SWAGGIN DRAGON", Zech is still dead from the events of "Miss My Nigga".
21** The first few lines of "Happy Bursday" reference several of Gil's previous songs.
22* GoshDangItToHeck: Gil swears all he wants, but in "GTFO" [[VideoGame/ParappaTheRapper [=PaRappa=]]] self-censors all the lines he repeats from Gil. [[spoiler: Until the ending, when [=PaRappa=] finally takes Gil's advice and shuts "Get the FUCK out!" at all the partygoers who still won't leave.]]
23* MenDontCry: In "Ally Car", Gil sings the second half of the song while in the shower, since the shower has to cry for him because he's "too swag to cry".
24* NWordPrivileges: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] and [[LampshadedTrope lampshaded]] in "Miss My Nigga".
25--> White people, you can sing it too
26--> Just change that N to a W
27--> Miss my Wigga...
28** When a (white) nurse says the word in the song's music video, her mouth is covered with the words "im not racist".
29* PrettyInMink: [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] in "IM GROWN".
30--> Protest if you want
31--> Imma wear twenty-five dead animals
32--> [[CrossesTheLineTwice All of em endangered]]
33--> Look so different call me stranger
34--> Clothes so stupid what I'm gon' wear is a no-brainer
35* RhymingWithItself: In "#swag":
36--> Punch you in your eye
37--> You need a frozen steak
38--> And if you Dracula
39--> I kill you with a stake
40--> So gangsta everything I do is high stakes
41--> [[LampshadeHanging When's the last time you ever heard somebody rhyme with three different kinds of steak?]]
42* RougeAnglesOfSatin: All of his onscreen lyrics are an example of this. He occasionally completely butchers a word, such as how in "IMDABES" he spells "arthritis" as "araseddfasdfis".
43* ShamelessSelfPromoter: His videos are full of pictures of fans wearing his T-shirts. In "GTFO", not only are most of the party's guests wearing his clothes, but there are several [=TVs=] in the background playing some of Gil's older videos.
44* ShoutOut: Despite his tough-guy image, his lyrics are full of nerdy references.
45** From "COMEUPOUTDAWAHTA":
46---> Fresh up out the water
47---> Like I beat the [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime worst dungeon]]
48** In the shots of his basement you can see that he has a [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Sephiroth]] poster.
