You’re Dead! is Flying Lotus’s fifth studio album, and his first album that features his rapping (other than Duality by his alter ego Captain Murphy). It is a concept album about death — which actually started as a joke: “Why don’t we make some shit that just kills everybody?” The album takes the listener on a journey, starting with death and moving on from there. I wanted to make a record that started at the moment of death, the perceived idea of what death is. As soon as you hit the play button, it’s on, and then it’s the whole journey through the afterlife, through the Tibetan Book of the Dead kind of idea of what it means to die and to go into different dimensions — you know, the “bardos,” as they put it. The album received great reviews from critics, and peaked at #19 on the Billboard 200.
