I'm just really sort of perplexed by the fact that the nerdy rap set's finest collective effort thus far in 2010 has been a convoluted, rather toothless debate on race. Meanwhile, the Wizard Rock/Nerdfighter scene has raised a million dollars for Haitian relief efforts. Make of that what you will.Z.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14955198622421067159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15042066.post-69204680243741735842010-02-24T15:04:03.050-05:002010-02-24T15:04:03.050-05:00Cool, that is kinda what I figured.

I feel like I touched on a lot of those issues – at least with regard to how nerdcore relates to hip-hop proper – back in my response to the "nerdcore is dead" fiasco, so I don't really plan to retrace those steps here.
