Glimpse into my music this week.
It’s been all about the hip-hop sub-culture “Nerdcore” this week. Wikipedia will explain it as follows…
Nerdcore hip hop, is a sub-genre of hip hop music characterized by themes and subject matter considered to be of general interest to nerds, though it can appeal to others as well. Self-described nerdcore musician MC Frontalot coined the term in 2000 in the song “Nerdcore Hiphop“. Frontalot, like most nerdcore artists, self-publishes his work and has released much of it for free online. As a niche genre, nerdcore generally holds to the DIY ethic, and has a history of self-publishing and self-production.[1]
Though nerdcore rappers rhyme about anything from politics to science fiction, there are some perennial favorites in nerdcore subject matter, including Star Wars, science, fantasy and computers.
So, without further ado, MC Frontalot.
Did anyone else catch the Doctor reference? Hell yes.
