Day 87: Bracket Buster

March 28, 2026

"Mac discovers Pitchfork's bracket challenge and enters himself, seeding his 2.5 songs against Kendrick and Drake. He spends the entire day making a 64-rapper bracket where he wins every round, printing 200 copies at Staples to hand out at his gig in 3 days. DJ Nutz points out that Mac put DefenseTrapBot in the bracket twice just so it could lose twice, but the real problem is Mac listed his voicemail-to-mom as a separate artist called 'Lil Maternal' to pad out the bracket — and Lil Maternal is seeded higher than Mac."
