    Das Racist are a bizarre and fun rap group with a unique style that is well showcased by this marvel of an album. It's fun, and the group's rapping and beats are great. i wish we'd get another album.

    Tired of rapping about drugs, gangbanging, and...well ok, not sex.

    After 2 awesome full length mixtapes Das Racist continues their streak with Relax...the beats are entertaining and catchy, and their freestyles are as inventive as they have ever been. Their ability to not take themselves seriously while taking themselves seriously proves to be an innovative effort. Definitely one of the hip hop groups to watch out for

    What follows are a series of maybe-serious experiments that aren't much fun.

    Das Racist takes the strengths off their mixtapes and simply take them on a new adventure with Relax.
