Kelly K Klarkson and Quentavius da Quitter are in love. Kelly K Klarkson and Quentavius da Quitter skate and smoke and taste one another’s fingers and snort molly and try to pick a name for their rap group. And then there’s their personal demons: Kelly exorcized hers a long time ago but Quentavius’s is named Lemon Pepper Wings, and she he they is the patron demon of the intimate, and they he she created pheromones for their her his graduate thesis, and astrology and all the apps, and the concept of independence, and she hey they force Kelly and Quentavius to face themselves, in an abandoned pool, alone, in the middle of the galaxy. With live skateboarding and original lyrics by Free Fool: Bowl EP.

PRAISE
