If you have ANY interest in ytcracker, MC Lars or Nerd Core in general...just buy the album.

I'll wait while you go do that.

Anyway, it's probably the best material either of the featured artist has produced thus far, but it's not my favorite ytcracker material.

But that's because I'm exxxtra gangsta like that. I still love this album and it's something new and awesome to listen to while the rest of the world is putting out nothing but crappy albums.

Very enjoyable album. That being said there are a few tracks I don't listen to very often, but it's not a greatest hits thing, so that is to be expected.

A lot of collaboration on this one. Doc Pop, STD, k.flay, Zealous1, int80, Frontalot...Well, you can see them all by looking at the track listing.

Overall, a very solid record for fans of Nerdcore. If you don't have it, you should.

As I am always on the lookout for something new (music-wise), I recently ran across a genre called "nerdcore".

The point of nerdcore is suburban kids singing hip-hop and rap, while "keeping it real" by singing about what they know.

for example: video games, computers, suburban living, the mall, star wars, monty python, bruce campbell... you get the idea. sometimes they make fun of traditional rappers and hip hop also. Although sometimes a little silly sounding, nerdcore is very easy to relate to and appreciate if you were raised in this type of environment (as opposed to songs about the inner city, gangs, drugs, guns and other traditional rap topics - which I have little to no real experience with).

This album is very good at representing what nerdcore is all about. It is almost of a "must-have" quality and be essential to any nerdcore fan.

I have been a long time fan of MC Lars and never much so of YtCracker but I have to say that this album is crazy good and that Yt is at the top of his game on this album and won me over. There are so many guest artists on this album and they all do a good job. So much rap out there makes your IQ drop after listening to it, but not so after this one. It is Smart, Funny aggressive and socially conscience with some pretty great beats. Guinevere is so sick and K.flay never fails to blow my mind...
Be a real Digital Gangsta and torrent this CD and listen to it now, then order the hard copy because you will want it in your collection.
