However, the concept and the MC delivered a completely different beast. Del has always been one of the more out-there lyricists to grab the mic, but he has a penchant for elaborate puns and encyclopedic vocabulary in place of Keith's X rated imagination. The basic premise of \u003ci\u003eDeltron 3030\u003c\/i\u003e is the MC traveling the galaxy, participating in rap battles where his rhymes summon psychic powers and destroy his opponents. The trio is joined by a myriad of guests as they travel the stars, many of whom made appearances on \u003ci\u003eHandsome Boy Modeling School\u003c\/i\u003e around the same time.

He is able to imagine his own world and create a stark vision of the future. One where he lives rent free while the world falls apart around him. And Del's expert wordplay serves him well in this dystopian future.
