I get down like Whack-a-mole...

After reading someone else's blog about random movie genres, it made me think about music genres.
I am personally a huge fan of a sub-genre of hip-hop, called Nerdcore. More or less, its rap about "nerd" things, such as videogames, computers, books, etc. MC Lars, MC Frontalot, Ytcracker, and Schaffer the Darklord are all members of that sub-genre. Captain Dan and the Scurvy Crew fall in that category, too, but consider themselves "Authentic Pirate Hip-Hop". I strongly suggest checking out nerdcore if you want something fun/different to listen to.


I recently learned of a group called Lord T & Eloise. They're classified as "aristo-crunk". Yes, that's right. They rap about being rich, but in more of a joking manner. It just goes to show you that there are constantly new genres and sub-genres being formed. Not even MySpace can keep up.

Peace. Love. Money.
Joe.
