Release overview
First album released under the Buck 65 name (previously Stinkin' Rich). Released on Metaforensics. Part of the 'Language Arts' series — a cycle of albums in the mid-to-late 1990s that established Terfry's abstract hip-hop aesthetic.
Released from Halifax, Nova Scotia, with little label infrastructure. Self-produced using sampler.
Weirdo Magnet is described as a 'shoebox filled with old photos' — a collection of material from 1988 to 1995 that fell through the cracks. It includes songs from old Stinkin' Rich and early Buck 65 singles, and functions as the 'garbage can of the collection.'
