3: Barely 5 Foot Tall. Now 6 Feet Underground.

It might seem a strange time to find inspiration from the work of P Diddy / Puff Daddy but that’s exactly what our hero does. Writing a song to cash in on the “recently transitioned” market, Shane creates a track vague enough to be played at the funeral of any grandmother ever. Working with a professional eulogy writer, an enigmatic crooner and a gospel choir, he leaves no stone unturned in his attempt to make the perfect wake banger.
