Fun DMC

[7] The first half of the album includes songs about record collecting ("The Ultimate 144"), video gaming ("Gamin On Ya") and partying ("Anotha' BBQ", "Enjoy").

[citation needed] For a period of time leading up to the release of Fun DMC, Thes One became an avid collector of standalone arcade games.

[citation needed] To support the release of the album, Thes One prepared a free digital mixtape, with the similarly Run-D.M.C.-inspired name, Funner Than Leather.

[8] With the assistance of San Jose producer Controller 7, the group also created a joke video on YouTube called Rick James the B-Boy from Buffalo.

Unrelated to the album, the video features Double K imitating Rick James while he raps to classic hip hop tracks.

The Pitchfork Media review explained that Double K and Thes One "confront deeper matters, and sleekly weave them into their classic good-vibe atmosphere, offering listeners a new level of profundity, energy, and intricacy without surrendering the sheer pleasure they expect from a People Under the Stairs record.
