We got one of the biggest names in Nerdcore Hip-Hop, mc chris a short while back said that he would be doing a show in Eugene, Oregon on July third. In a move that literally shocked the Nerdcore community, chris made an open call to all Nerdcore rappers that might be interested in opening for him. Historically not the most supportive of the Nerdcore community, he was nonetheless welcomed with open arms.
Now, a little more than a month away from the event, chris made a much anticipated reappearance on the Rhyme Torrents forums, the common hangout for most of the underground Nerdcore rappers. While some community members had been skeptical that he was sincere in this offer, chris stated that there would be spots for five twenty minute acts before his show. Two spots were immediately given to Nursehella and Karl Olson, two well established rappers. However, it looks as though Olsen will not be able to attend. The last four spots are now being contended between MC Tanuki and TG 2005, ZeaLouS1, Beefy, MC Gigahertz, funky49, Rappy Mcrapperson , Dr. Strangelove, and the Stunt Junkies.
You can follow all of the developments yourself on the particular thread on the Rhyme Torrents forum. Keep ya updated as stuff develops or vote on who should go on mc chris' blog!
