The Flight is the second album by the Mike's Birthday Bash group, released on March 29, 2025. The album expands on the absurdist lore and surreal in-jokes established in their debut, Super Critters, incorporating airplane-themed satire, inside jokes, fake companies, and cryptic references. It is named after an elaborate bit in which Lime and Lem gaslit Hexfate into believing Lime was flying to Washington to meet her.

Concept

The Flight centers loosely around the fictional airline **MixMyFlights**, a parody of real-world music service MixMyPart.com, founded by Andrew St. Hilaire. The album serves as a journey through a surreal flight. The lore of the "Flight 221 Explosion" and the deeper mystery of MixMyFlights is explored further in the unreleased The Flight Movie.

Track Listing

  1. The Flight – Featuring a bizarre and explicit verse by lil herb. Includes themes of plane bathrooms, turbulence, and fame.
  2. YUMMY – A previously unreleased track created during the Super Critters sessions, repurposed for this album.
  3. MixMyFlights – Hexfate performs an in-character flight safety announcement for the fake MixMyFlights airline.
  4. pErcocets – teesuper raps about putting Hexfate “on a Perc.” A chaotic spiritual successor to “pASt.” Purely satirical; Hexfate does not do drugs.
  5. Who’s this – Originally featured an edited audio, replaced with “I am Hexfate.”
  6. Baggage Claim – A filler-yet-funny track with teesuper freestyling about airport luggage.
  7. Welcome to Vegas – LimeKingVR raps about gambling in Vegas. Features an in-song fight between Traceful and Lime, ending in Lime winning back all her money after a final gamble.

Album Art

The cover of The Flight is a screenshot of **^LimeAirlinesPlane**, a Rec Room map created by LimeKingVR on April 8, 2018. The plane became a symbolic piece of group history and perfectly represented the album’s chaotic aviation theme.

Personnel

  • Lem – Production, vocals, lore writing
  • LimeKingVR – Rap vocals, flight lore, cover art
  • Hexfate – Spoken word, character performance, voice cracks
  • teesuper – Rap vocals, freestyle segments
  • Traceful – Conflict voice acting in “Welcome to Vegas”
  • Brightside – Background audio and mic glitches
  • Chair – Logistics, server management

Legacy

The Flight elevated the group's fictional universe, introducing:

  • **MixMyFlights**, the satire airline
  • **Flight 221 Explosion**, the fictional disaster referenced in the The Flight Movie
  • **Andrew St. Gunner**, the group's parody remix artist channel
  • Continued expansion of Hexfate’s voice crack mythology

Notable Lyrics

  • “Relief on the way, in this bathroom flight”
  • “Ball is slowin’ down, man, I swear it's lookin' right / Lands on black, guess I’m walkin’ home tonight”
  • “You looking at me / I’m running to the toilet and I hope that y’all don’t see”

Reception

Like Super Critters, The Flight was not publicly released, but was celebrated within the group for pushing the boundaries of meme rap and internet friend-group lore. It is often considered a **“spiritual sequel”** to Super Critters, with tighter production, more references, and denser lore.
