Move over Gwen Stefani, there's a new banana anthem. This track is all about bananas and our love for em - their versatility, their portability, their dopeness.

2. Bag It Up

An ode to bringing your own grocery bag, this track names every type of bag possible that you can bring to haul - from drawstring to briefcase.

3. 88 Sale

There's nothing like getting a good deal! This song is about that feeling you get when you get the mail about the 88 cent sale: HELLA RICH.

The title track bitches! This one's all about getting those deals, haulin' that food, and saving that coin.

This song is an ANTHEM about all of the things you end up buying at the grocery store when you start off just looking for one thing. This is the human experience.

Did Lauryn Hill and Snoop Dogg secretly record this on their down time? I'll never tell.
