'Nerdcore' Rappers Let Loose
Nov. 20 2008, Published 2:25 p.m. ET
"Nerdcore" is the latest musical blend of hardcore rap sung "by nerds, about nerds."
The man behind the genre is San Francisco-based rapper MC Frontalot, "who mixes tight beats with lyrics about the Internet, wookiees, and +3 2-handed broadswords."
"Frontalot raps about all the things I care about," boasts one male fan. "Like 'Magic the Gathering,' and internet porn addiction."

comedienne Negin Farsad recently documented MC on tour with his debut album, Nerdcore Rising, in a documentary of the same name. She followed Frontalot and his band across the US singing songs like I Hate Your Blog to sold out venues.
And yes, even nerd music pioneer "Weird Al" Yankovic makes a cameo.
Like you had to ask.
