Beauty

Beauty is the fifth SoundCloud EP recorded and produced by KrabbyLama, which was released on February 5, 2022. While churning out ideas for an eventual return to SoundCloud after the inevitable slope Headin Str8 2 Mars caused, Layne shifted creative gears and decided to work towards an EP that sounded like a radio-broadcast (Pepper FM). An album where listeners would have to follow along from beginning to end. While this was a unique concept, Layne had to think outside the box and push aside any song that didn't fit the tone of Pepper FM (those being an untitled track to feature FearMusic and a sequel to the iconic Anime Girls).

Upon the release of Pepper FM, Layne and his family were being evicted from Layne's childhood home (where the KrabbyLama YouTube channel started up), so an entirely new studio was being set up while wrapping up filming/post-production for the fourth and final season of Yoshinator. During this time, Layne was also secretly putting some final touches on the Anime Girls sequel (later known as Anime Girls II) and was feeling confident enough to record several new songs with Connor (Goldbroski) that would reflect their past comedic-glory (Crumbling-Headin Str8 2 Mars era). The title "Beauty" references a climatic-point Layne had finally reached in his life where he's perfectly content with the bizarre world around him and is hopeful about his future.

Layne had announced a desire to take a legitimate break from SoundCloud so he can focus on YouTube and school-related things for a while. Therefore, this EP will be his final contribution to the platform until further notice.
