Notes

• "Don't Fuk Me" quotes the movie Scarface, where Ninja's monologue came from.
• "Ugly Boy" features heavily a sample from the song "Ageispolis" by Aphex Twin.
• "Happy Go Sucky Fucky" is based on the song "Expander" from the game Streets of Rage 2, scored by Yuzo Koshiro and Motohiro Kawashima.
• "Raging Zef Boner" has a fake advertisement at the end, which features a quote from Lord of the Rings, in which Gandalf asks Frodo to keep the Ring secret and safe pending his return.
• "Girl I Want 2 Eat U" quotes the dub of Azumanga Daioh, where Yolandi's monologue at the end of the song came from.
• "Pitbull Terrier" is based on the song "Pit Bull" by Emir Kusturica and the No Smoking Orchestra from the Black Cat, White Cat soundtrack.
• "Moon Love" is from the album Good Morning South Africa by MaxNormal.TV, Ninja and Yolandi's earlier hip-hop group, and features their daughter, Sixteen Jones, as a toddler.
