Meet Ridiculously Average Guy Ryan Peters, aka white rapper Spose from Maine with more than a ridiculous amount of talent. Known for the theme song of Canadian TV show "Mr. D" and underground hit, "I'm Awesome". Also known for doing an album based around Outkast samples and for being/referencing his status as The Stoner and Nice Guy.

Lovable Coward: In the song "I'm Awesome", he says that he will run away from a brawl. He might also be a Miles Gloriosus because he is the "most obnoxious guest up at the sausage fest" in the same song.

The Slacker: in "The King of Maine" he says he slacks off and watches porn. The introduction to one says, "Guess who's back off the couch?"

"Alternative Radio" is one long love song to the genre, complete with an Affectionate Parody musical and lyrical style. Noting some of the many shout-outs: Bands mentioned by name: Weezer, The Pixies, The Offspring, Lit, Rage, tool Band members mentioned: Kurt Cobain, Billy Corgan, Eddie Vedder Song Titles/Lyrics mentioned: "Interstate Love Song", "Loving is what I got", "Bittersweet Symphony"

comment
Doing It for the Artinvoked: In universe, executives want him to be like "3oh3, Flo Rida, mixed with B.O.B." in his song.. well, "Pop Song" but he is achieving this instead while he also invokes the Be Yourself trope.

Plagiarism in Fiction: He jokes that if you enjoy his lyrics, it's probably because they were written by his little sister.

Shout-Out: In "Blow My Candle Out", he has a "list" sequence just like in Eminem's "Till I Collapse". "Alternative Radio" is one long love song to the genre, complete with an Affectionate Parody musical and lyrical style.

comment
Self-Deprecation: The whole idea behind "I'm Awesome" is to mock the Boastful Rap formula popular since the dawn of Hip Hop practically... while mocking himself.
