PARANOiD DJ - 'Use Me Up VIP' (Hazbin Hotel Pilot)

Yes, I'm aware there's a typo hah

If the original song is about Angel not even trying to save himself because he doesn't have any self worth, then this song is him realising that he deserves better than to be treated this way and that maybe he actually has a chance at redemption. I get the feeling that this version takes place after Dirty Healings when he meets Charlie. She is the one who puts the idea of redemption in his head and the first person who sees something in him that's worth saving. Edit: WOW thank you guys so much! I didn't think so many people would care about my perspective!

Vivzie should add a reference to your music in a Helluva Boss or even Hasbin Hotel itself!

I love how both versions of this song are the yin-yang of each other in terms of both Angel as a character and his themes. Situation-wise, Angel's Order shows him at his strongest, being able to defend himself from assholes who don't know the word 'no', but character-wise, he's his most vulnerable, resigned to his current fate and hopeless to get out. VIP is the polar opposite: performing at the studio at Val's beck and call, but now much more confident to seek a better life. An excellent job on both pieces and tying so perfectly into Angel.

here after episode 4 of hazbin, and it hits so much harder

I like the small differences between the original song and this version. In the original, Angel was cynical and hopeless about ever escaping Valentino's control and admitted to having mostly just given into the pimps demands. Here though, while still having hints of the aforementioned cynicism, we also get hints of Angel's growing defiance, which may or may not have been inspired by his stay at the Hotel. He admits that, while he may still feel trapped under Val's thumb, his submission won't last forever. He's growing more and more sick of having his passion being exploited and used to satisfy the overlords greed and lust for sex and control, and he doesn't plan to take it much longer. This song is basically Angel telling Val: "You may have me on a leash for now, but that leash won't hold me forever. I'll be your obedient pet for now, but one day I WILL bite back. The moment the opportunity comes, I'll leave you in the dust and never look back. You can't control me forever, and I will take back my afterlife from you. You're nothing without me, and you're going to find that out the hard way. You'll see."

GAH SUCH A BOP! Of course Val would find out. He always does. The song certainly has a different feel to it in this situation. Yet no matter what Angel still has that defiance and determination. One day, he will be free. Thanks again so much for letting me do the art of this epic continuation of an already outstanding song! Here's to the next one. Brilliant as always, DJ!

Okay this seriously needs to be some sort of animatic or better yet an animation like they did for Addict. It could be the next big thing if they did animated music videos for “Use me Up” and even “Valentino”

I NEED to hear Blake Roman singing this

"I don't care what you say or what you want me to do, One I'll find a way to get myself away from *You*" Man now that's gonna be iconic

In the first version, Angel Dust was very cynical, but also more violent and reckless. There was this sense that he had truly given up the fight against his demons and he just didn't care anymore. In this song, he's becoming more and more defiant. He's regaining his sense of pride, and beginning to want to rebel against Valentino. Before, he was like, "Whelp, I gave my soul to my demons and so I deserve a shitty life." Now he's more like, "Hey, wait a minute, I'm fuckin' awesome! Maybe I'll even get away from Val someday." It's not much but it's an improvement. Also, as always, Paranoid DJ did amazingly!

I like the fact that you put human angel as the reflection of the current Angel we know

0:40 to skip the dialogue

I absolutely ADORE this. There is definitely a bit of a different vibe to the first one, the first one feels a lot more self-supporting, like at that moment he's not taking anyone's shit, and he's his own demon who can and will kill you if you test him. This one is just as good for different reasons. This one feels a lot more challenging, and sassy, like he refuses to let himself sink into despair, and he will never stop fighting to get the fuck away from Val, but he will bide his time. He's never gonna let Val steal his light. Keep making amazing music Paranoid! These are always a bop, and an absolute joy to listen to!

Paranoid DJ, this was amazing! The new lyrics and new hidden vocals were simply divine. This was the best St Patrick's Day gift ever. Just remember that you rock and that your fans will always be by your side. Love you lots!

This song sounds so nostalgic for somehow?!😢 Anyways here's the recipe on how to make a nuke: You cannot make a nuclear bomb without fissile material," says Andrew Furlong, of the Institute of Chemical Engineers. And for an average thermonuclear device, the necessary material is plutonium or enriched uranium. Uranium, a naturally-occurring heavy metal, comes as uranium 238 or 235. Both are radioactive and will decay into other elements, given time, but only the latter can be forcibly split when neutrons are fired at it. This is the basis of a nuclear bomb. When an atom breaks apart, it gives out energy and more neutrons, which can then split other atoms. Get enough atoms splitting and you have the chain reaction needed for a bomb blast. But natural uranium overwhelmingly consists of the 238 isotope, which bounces back any neutrons striking it - useless then for a bomb. To make a bomb, natural uranium needs to be treated to concentrate the 235 isotope within it. And this is where the problems re ally begin. For every 25,000 tonnes of uranium ore, only 50 tonnes of metal are produced. Less than 1% of that is uranium 235. No standard extraction method will separate the two isotopes because they are chemically identical. Instead, the uranium is reacted with fluorine, heated until it becomes a gas and then decanted through several thousand fine porous barriers. This partially separates the uranium into two types. One is heavily uranium 235, and called "enriched" while the rest is the controversial "depleted" uranium used to make conventional weapons. To make a nuclear reactor, the uranium needs to be enriched so that 20% of it is uranium 235. For nuclear bombs, that figure needs to be nearer 80 or 90%. Get around 50kg of this enriched uranium - the critical mass - and you have a bomb. Any less and the chain reaction would not cause an explosion. You could use plutonium instead. According to Keith Barnham, a physicist at Imperial College, this is the preferred material because it makes much lighter weapons that can be mounted on to missiles. Plutonium is produced as a by-product in nuclear reactors and only around 10kg is needed for a bomb. An average power plant needs about a year to produce enough and expensive reprocessing facilities are required to extract the plutonium from the fuel. With the basic material, life gets easier. The bomb will explode once the critical mass of uranium or plutonium is brought together. So, to begin with, and to make sure that it doesn't explode in the hands of its owners, the bomb needs to keep the metal separated into two or more parts. When the weapon is in place and ready to go off, these sub-critical masses need only be thrown together - and this can be done with conventional explosives.

I love the resistance Angel shows here. Val may pull the strings, but Angel will be damned to Double Hell before he gives up his stage. I can't wait for the day he breaks free from Val. And the lyrics are insane. Theres more energy and hope in this version. You can feel the fight in him. Top notch work, DJ & Ayyy-Imma-Ninja!!!

What's unfortunate about this song compared to the original, is the original displays that Angel Dust is tough and can beat the crap out of assholes that try to assault him. But he can't fight back against Valentino because afraid of him. Being an Overlord, Valentino is much more powerful than Angel Dust

"But they won't kill my light, I'm gonna rock their world and prove why I'm the shit tonight."- This line alone is the single most empowering line in the entire song. Any rape survivor/ sex worker needs to hear this. Thank-you for creating such a powerful song and one that is perfect for Angel Dust!

I'm so excited!!!! I REALLY want this to just come out already!!! I keep checking back becuase I think it has already come out 😆😆😆 The 1st one is such a banger!!!!!
