Chicago rap duo L.E.P. Bogus Boys have dropped plenty of songs in the past, but none more substantial than their latest single, "Commas." The provocatively brash record highlights their innate penchant for blowing money fast, and with Lil Wayne and Ma$e candidly joining them over Southside and TM88's frenzied production, it's an indulgent affair that we hope doesn't stay under the radar.
After watching the music video for "Commas"—where the boys get $10 million dollar checks and proceed to blow money fast—we wanted to find out what the L.E.P. Bogus Boys would do if they had a few extra commas in their bank account. From taking care of family to copping new jewelry pieces ("With that type of paper, we're going straight to the source," declared Count), L.E.P. had some interesting choices to match their animated personalities.

Upgrade the Whip
Count: "I'm going to go get me a Bugatti. First off all, it's a solid $1 million dollar car, so I know it can do everything but fly to Mars. I know I can get away in a chase. If they on my bumper, they see nothing but smoke.
"As soon as I pull up, I'm getting any chick I want, you know what I'm saying? Also, I need a car like that to make the haters as mad as I want them. A Lamborghini will make them mad on a scale from 1-10 like an eight; I want it on 12. [Laughs.]"
Moonie: "Since Count got the Bugatti, it's only right that we can ride shotty together, because we a group. But, can I get a helicopter, though? I want to hover over the haters so I can look down. I want to be able to pinpoint them out in certain areas, and I want to be able to piss on top of their heads while we're riding through the sky. [Laughs.]
"The real reason I would get the helicopter is because I got a lot of road rage. I hate traffic, and they're ain't no traffic in the air. I would like the helicopter so I could get from point A to point B in like five minutes."
Expand Jewelry Collection
Count: "With that type of paper, we're going straight to the source. We're going straight to Africa. We're going to get our diamonds right then and there. Hey man, blood, sweat, and tears, it come with everything, jack. [Laughs.] We're going to pay them to wipe them tears away."
Moonie: "We're going straight to the man, like my brother said. We're going straight to Rolex, holler at the people there and buy a couple treasures. And shout out to Treasures in Chicago. We're going to do it the right way."
Take A Trip To The Moon
Count: "Hey, they say they got trips to the moon, no bullshit. You can go to the moon with NASA for a $1 million."
Moonie: "We're going to need two spaceships to the moon. Actually, can you put two seats on there? Take $2 million out for that. We're going just for the experience, just to say we did something that nobody did."
Annoy Donald Trump
Count: "I'm going to move right next door to the Trump Towers and step all on his shit and invade his space. I'm going to build a building next door to Trump with all the homies in it, make everybody in the Trump Tower move out. There goes the neighborhood. [Laughs.] Nothing but Chevy's on 26 [inches] parked out in the front. You should have never given me $10 million."
Moonie: "[Laughs.] Hell no."
Buy a Share of the Chicago Bulls
Count: "Hell yeah, that'll work. If not, we definitely going to have courtside seats year-round. I'm going to pay them so every now and then, when they get a good 20-point lead, I'm going to get in there and hoop a little bit."
Moonie: "I'd put me and Count on the roster, and then I'd go get Carmelo Anthony. We would turn up after that. Any team could win with our ambition and our motivation. We could make the Charlotte Bobcats have a great season, man."
Start An Affordable Clothing Line
Count: "I tell Moonie, let's just open a line of clothing that less fortunate people can afford. We would have it in the J.C. Penneys and stores like that so they can afford it."
Moonie: "Yeah, most definitely. For people that know about the L.E.P Bogus Boys, they know that we are fashionable guys. We've been wearing this one brand called Reagan Era a lot too. Shout out to them people at Reagan Era. They been looking out for us, giving us some dope shit."
Give Back to the Chicago Community
Count: "We're going to rebuild the community. That's number one on the list. We'll already do that before we buy the Bugattis and all that. The whole hood, get new cribs built up. Schools, we going to do all that.
"We're going to get this thing going the right way, man. We're going to create jobs for the communities, get the drugs out of here, and people will have a reason to wake up and live their life the legal way. Don't nobody out here want to be selling drugs and all that. We'll give them an opportunity to make an honest living."
Moonie: "Some people don't believe in going to college. I was unfortunately unable to go to college due to my incarceration, but when I was locked up I did pick up a trade. Having a trade can help you get some money out here, too."
Elevate the Shoe Game
Moonie: "I'd need to sit down with Michael Jordan and go over shoe designs with him. But I need him to get his foot game back, because them new Jordan's he's been dropping, that shit's been wack!"
Count: "Every one of them out there, just give me an eight and I'm cool. I ain't got no big feet."
Make Sure Family is Straight
Moonie: "We always say when we get money, we're doing it for our families. I wasn't raised with a silver spoon in my mouth, so I want to be able to spoil some of my family members and show them a better lifestyle.
"I definitely want to take care of my family, that's my first priority when I even touch the $10 million. Half of that is going to them off top to create some type of revenue. We can start creating things, create jobs for people in the streets. Family definitely got to get half of that, so I may have to cut back on the helicopter for now."
