MC Frontalot “Final Boss”

Yes, Virginia, there is a genre called “nerdcore.” He is it, and it is him, slim with a tilted pocket protector.

A little bit of everything, like when Homer Simpson ate sushi for the first time, is what you get on “Final Boss.” “Socks On” sounds like a serious song with a sound-alike Beyonce, so if you want to play something with a beat, give this a shot. It plays both kinds of music: rhythm and blues.

“The AM Radio Skit” is cute. It’s just them talking, but it has Schaffer the Darklord in it. Get a load of the Darklord. You know you want to.

“Listen Close” is your standard clever lyrics rap song. There are several of these on here, actually. It’s not just Eminem without swearing. There is some real intelligence here.

I enjoy and recommend “Wallflowers” because it goes on about Margaret Thatcher. Nothing is hotter than her, especially in this song. Plus “whom” is used correctly in the lyrics, as opposed to the use of “her” in the previous sentence. Did I mention there is a track called “Tongue-Clucking Grammarian”? There is. “Cluck U” may be long gone next to the SCU campus, but at least they saved the tongue.
