Here’s a question: would you miss out on listening to names like Jeremih or Katy Perry if they were no longer on the radio? If you answered yes, you are either a) a 15 year old girl or B) somebody who dons sunglasses indoors. Should you emphatically answered no, you’re probably one of the millions of silent Americans who don’t fully realize where to turn when it comes to finding music which actually has a message as well as speaks to issues close to them (did you kiss a girl and did you like it?)
Pop Musicians are really a dime a dozen and for the most part will be turning out songs such as factories crank out car parts or perhaps fastfood chains crank out burgers. Wouldn’t it be good to give ourselves some variety, specifically something which spoke to the lifestyle of avid gamers? Nerdcore doesn’t pretend to be pop music, and that’s exactly why it had success amongst people who are looking for something different. It’s music that is unique, has a message, and a ton of unheard of music artists who happen to be gifted but not known. I think it is time we gave Nerdcore some more “air-time.”
Here are 6 Pop Musicians that must be replaced by Nerdcore Music artists:
Nerdcore Artist: Dual Core
Replacing: New Boyz
Although switching the “S” in boys to “Z” teeters dangerously close to 1337sp34K, this group of youngsters not lawfully old enough to buy Goldschlager, will be missed by only a handful of men and women, most likely beginning with Ray J and concluding with the artist’s mother and father. Their number 1 tune on iTunes speaks volumes about just how great of a share the band has made to music:
I Met a group of girls in a Escalade
I Met a group of girls in a Escalade
Met met a group of girls in a Escalade
They came with you and left with me
It’s believed the lyrics were inspired by a blend of John Lennon’s sound and a dream Ozzy Osbourne once had. Nerdcore rise-up…
Nerdcore Artist: Optimus Rhyme
Replacing: P Diddy/Puff Daddy/Daddy Puff/The guy from those cologne advertisements
P Diddy is pretty the anomaly. The Puff Daddy and the Family lp is still among my favorites even now, as well as the impressive Mo’ Money single with Mase (when was the last time you heard that man’s name?) continues to be among the most remarkable music videos of the 90′s.
P Diddy is a brand, a commodity…he’s been smart enough to control his brand as well as ensure he was the man pulling the strings. His music has developed into more of a marketing tool, and he’s much more disposable compared to any music performer not known as Rebecca Black, even though slightly much less creative (at least she has her own original songs).
Nerdcore Artist: MC Chris
Replacing: Nicki Minaj
In the most befuddling mystery since the Egyptian pyramids, Nicki Minaj is one of the most profitable artists of all-time. That is based from the simple fact that she is the only musician to have 7 songs in the Billboard Top 100 all at once. Look at yet another fact, though…all but one of those were cameos to tracks by Ludacris, Wayne, Trey Songz, Usher, Sean Kingston, and Jay Sean.
Can she make it through by herself? Most likely. Must we have to consistently keep paying attention to discover. Here’s hoping we don’t have to…
Nerdcore Artist: YT Cracker
Replacing: Jeremih
I bet you thought I was gonna suggest replacing “Eminem” didn’t you? Yet that will have been, well, absurd. Eminem speaks his mind as well as doesn’t really care what other people think…you’d need to think that his massive success is tied directly to fan demand to have genuine artists…but the executives making the choices must believe otherwise.
Yet, I digress, we’re swapping out Jerimih, the guy who loves birthday sex and wants you down on him. He’s wildly popular, drives fancy cars and is a star. Hey, I’m sold…the question is, just how many more songs will it take in order to know that Jermih is a filthy rich star, right until we stop caring?
I thought I told you Imma star
You see the ice, you see the cars
Flashy lights, everywhere we are,
Live tonight, like there’s no tomorrow
Painfully enough, we’re still finding out.
Nerdcore Artist: Beefy
Replacing: T-Pain
I remember T-Pain’s debut single “I’m Sprung.” A song about his wife, which actually provided some exclusive perception into the conflicting nature of (dare I mention it) love.
But right now, T-Pain is referred to as that dude from the I’m on a Boat music video who apparently actually likes money (like everybody else) and all he does is win, win, win…no matter what (like Charlie Sheen). He’d be easy to replace – get rid of the autotune and make him put five grand in a bottle everytime he mentions the word money in a song and he’d be making music for Ke$ha this time next week.
Nerdcore Artist: MC Frontalot
Replacing: will.i.am
He is Will. Not Will Smith. The one dude from the Black Eyed Peas that actually speaks. He’s become one of the most prominent producers/beat makers in the music industry. He’s a God amongst girls working on their treadmill machines, searching for that extra boost to get them going (try this in case you really want to go big) but to anybody searching for genuine songs, he’ just another guy making filler which rocks the hell out of a half-time show, yet doesn’t really do it for anyone searching for a jolt of inspiration or something that they could connect with (that’s what music is supposed to do, remember).
Stepped up in the party like my name was “that b***h”.
All these haters mad because I’m so established.
They know I’m a beast, yeah I’m a f**king savage
Haters you can kill yourself.
And so let it be written, let it be told…
Yet do not take my word for it, take a look at the video playlist and inform me if you believe the world is prepared for more Nerdcore.
