“People love heroes. Nerd heroes.”
– MC Frontalot

MC Frontalot first coined the phrase “nerdcore hip-hop” in the late ‘’90s to describe tracks laid down over homemade beats, featuring lyrics about everything from Star Wars to Nigerian e-mail scams. This year, he’s been on tour with a full band in support of his second full-length album, Secrets from the Future. While on the road, he was the subject of a documentary film, also entitled Nerdcore Rising.

SG had the chance to talk with MC Frontalot about the life of a professional rapper and the growing buzz around nerdcore hip-hop.
