Game Over

• Words: Lulu McAllister

“Game Over” is a real day in the life of a rapper, Doomtree-style. The video begins with a busy convenience store employee, Doomtree MC Mictlan, laying it all out while he goes about ringing up purchases, chilling with Vitamin Water in the cooler, stocking inventory, taking out the trash, and connecting with sympathizers around the store. “Welcome to the future! Rap won’t save you!,” he tells a dumbfounded customer while bagging his groceries. After following Mictlan on his trip home from work, we witness him cooking a Food Network-worthy meal for his honey and then rocking onstage at a packed show. Lulu McAllister
