[edit source]
The next release dropped February 28th. House Music is an EP which compiles sound effects, primarily from, ENA, Windows 95, Vine edits, Minecraft, Five Nights at Freddys, and many more. This release led to multiple music videos with visuals of each sound effect that would play.
On April 20th of the same year, Arana Album was uploaded. The contents of the release can be compared to the production of House Music, except for each track being tailored to Bebo Records affiliate, Aranamor. The jokes throughout the album consist of: being a mute, video game Among Us and Halo, Minecraft server BRAINDEAD, and his dog Mop.

In 2022, Bebo Records embarked on a new direction. On May 11th, Pamperson and TaniRift released "FUCK THE FAGS," inspiring 8lak3_ to return to rapping and music production. This led to the creation of a parody song titled "FUCK YOU" uploaded by 8lak3_ and their first feature with Pamperson was on "FUCK THE FAGS PT. 2" releasing August 4th of that year. 8lak3_ has featured on 24 Pamperson tracks as of "The After Life"
Throughout the year, 8lak3_ released multiple singles on SoundCloud, intended for a future, unreleased project titled "Spectrum." These included tracks like "all that lives will die," "blam," "Tropical Restaurant," and "Out Of Your Head." Most of these songs found their way onto the compilation album "Seasons Greetings: 8lak3_'s Worst," which was released on October 2nd and featured songs from all previous releases.
The third of 8lak3_'s Christmas releases, "Merry," was unveiled on December 19th. It featured multiple covers of Christmas songs and two original songs, one of which included a collaboration with TaniRift, this is considered by critics to be one of the laziest releases under the label.

The next 2 releases from 8lak3_ both devolved into Breakbeat and Breakcore. "(B:)" was created as a sort of 'tribute' to a corrupted 2TB drive that had stored all of Bebo Records' history up until this point including music, photography, samples, and the Prince Zuko Archive.
The album contains lots of breaks and samples including,
"(G:) SERENE" was the next Breakbeat release from 8lak3_, with an overall feeling of scuba diving and an underwater essence. Sampling on this EP includes 'Game Grumps' on Bandcamp and Prince Zuko on Spotify on the track 'DCIM'
