From Gangsta to Geek: How Nagolbud Showed Me the Way to Nerdcore Hip Hop

When I was younger, all I listened to was street rap. I was convinced that nothing else was good. But then I stumbled across Nagolbud's YouTube channel and my views completely changed. Nagolbud showed me that nerdcore hip hop was just as valid and enjoyable a genre as street rap. He explained the nuances and idiosyncrasies of the genre and encouraged me to explore it more deeply. I'm so thankful to him for introducing me to nerdcore hip hop and for giving me a new appreciation for rap music in general. In this blog post, I'm going to talk about how Nagolbud got me into nerdcore hip hop over fake street rap.
