I wish I could like MC Frontalot, but I just can't stand his voice...

I liked that amateur kid's version better. http://videosift.com/video/First-World-Problems

Even though MC Frontalot was first, he's hard to understand, and there's a lot of blah-blah lyrics that don't add to the theme.

Some more first world problems here...

MC Frontalot always gets a vote.

If you EVER get the chance to see him live, go. He is amazing on the stage.

quality be kind to me when you reach the top


Haha! I've got a long way to go yet, but when I get there my blessings will rain down upon you. : )

Nerd rap infests your internet. You left a trap, but it's empty.
MC Frontalot took a gape but the bait wasn't tempting,
ending up uncaged and at large
to talk smack at you through the networking appliance that's in charge
of every drip of your attention.
Yo, when mine goes out I've got to log in just to mention
my disappointment at the interruption of convenience.
I mean just: a lot left, but none up in between this
couple of minutes here and a couple of minutes later.
It's an outrage, at the price I paid. These dictators
of my leisure rule with an iron fist.
Has anybody ever been so put upon as this?

Your GPS run out of battery (first world problem)
Got to wake up Saturday (first world problem)
You just delayed a honeymoon (first world problem)
Pledge season's coming soon (first world problem)
Half your friend list is spam accounts (first world problem)
And your center channel speaker's out (first world problem)

Muffy, my hair regrowth cream is mostly ineffective
and I'm struggling to keep this in perspective,
but I feel like a massive injustice occurred.
Says "regrows hair" on the tube (in the words)
in a third — or maybe a quarter — of all users.
I must have got swindled. Is it a fault? Of whose is?
Oooh, Muffy, Muffy, I had all the servants tortured.
Did you keep them on retainer? Do you got some more on order?
'Cause I can't comb my hair on my own no more.
I got accustomed to the lifestyle, sniffed upon the spore
and it molded up my innards, made the blood turn blue.
Muffy, Muffy, there's a revolution; what we're gonna do?

Misplaced the Ambien (first world problem)
Left a participle dangling (first world problem)
You're scheduling your root canal (first world problem)
Your grad schooling had no rationale (first world problem)
You didn't like your appetizer (first world problem)
Your yacht got capsized (a first world problem)

Now while our capitalism is in a minor kerfuffle,
you have to hustle. Before the fates come, reshuffle.
Rustle up another couple grievances and air 'em.
You can laugh about it later (maybe needed while despairing).
For the moment though, you ordered half caf, didn't get it;
there was no TV set when you jetted; internet resetted
itself just as I was in the middle
of tournament play, and so I suffered from transmittal
interruption. Completely ruined my day.
MC Frontalot's a jackass, that's all I'm trying to say.
People buy CDs in these days of disaster,
so poor me: I have to be a professional rapper.

No bubbles in the soda cup (first world problem)
App crashed when you loaded up (first world problem)
Phone's OS is outta date (first world problem)
Colors won't calibrate (first world problem)
They never stock the snack you want (first world problem)
Caught herpes from a celebutante (first world problem)

Got wallhacked in PVP (first world problem)
Oh no, HD-DVD (first world problem)
Pixels aren't perfect square (first world problem)
Your favorite rapper isn't debonair (first world problem)
You own too many underwear (first world problem)
And you're not much of a millionaire (first world problem)

Allow MC Frontalot to respond: You got Asperger's.

I would still rather listen to MC Frontalot.

My friend Jesse Dangerously is featured in the Nerdcore for Life movie, although he says he doesn't know how much actual screen time is devoted to him. Is this a different nerdcore movie that is somehow also about to be released? wtf?

Anyway... what Jello Biafra said is totally true. While Jesse does have tracks like Level 3 boss, which is about waiting in a room for a video game character to come and defeat you, he also does a lot of more serious material as well. He definitely doesn't self-identify as being "nerdcore"

However, that being said, his music really is quite a bit more intelligent than a LOT of rap that is out there. I would say he's closer to say Sage Francis than MC Frontalot, although admittedly he did produce beats on Frontalot's album.

Hey, am I allowed to post a video of my friend rapping? I had nothing personally to do with the creation of the video- it just happens to be a guy I know.
