Rolling Papers is the debut mixtape by American rapper Domo Genesis. The mixtape was self-released for free on Odd Future's Tumblr page on August 30, 2010.[1] The mixtape's production was handled by Left Brain, Syd tha Kyd, and Tyler, the Creator.

Reception

Pitchfork Media on the album: "Rolling Papers peaks high with "Super Market", a skit-song in which Domo cuts off Tyler in a grocery-store line, leading to an epically ridiculous battle-rap throwdown that ends when Tyler leaves on an evil walrus named Rufus and Domo turns into a zombie. Deep-voiced, sleepy-eyed Domo doesn't have the magnetic bloodlust of the rest of the crew; most of the time, he just wants to puff away in peace. The production is dazed, MF Doom-esque psych-rap—good for vibe, not close attention—and Domo's voice, usually deep in the mix, works just the same. If you're in the right mood, Rolling Papers wafts past nicely. If you're not, things get boring fast."[2]
