I’ve done a handful of these “This week in ridiculous rap” columns before. Typically it’s some over the top crazy thugged out shit or some generally embarassing cornball shit.This week, we have something that pretty much broke my brain. The phrase “this is why we can’t have nice things” pops in my head while viewing this video. It makes me think about the forefathers of rap music, creating a genre of music without really being aware of their own influence at the time. Years later, they could look back with great pride and think “holy shit, look what we helped start!”. Hearing Rakim for the first time or listening to “Low end Theory” when it dropped, with the look on their face like a proud father.
Then, something like this comes along and I bet they’re like “What have we done!?!?!” *commits hari kiri suicide*
It’s hard to find words for this. This is outsider rap made by someone who’s an outsider to the outsiders who also lives in Australia (or New Zealand). It’s just…wow. Just watch…
I know, right?
So many questions.
How can something be so futuristic and so much like a caveman at the same time? How can a rapper dress like an off duty magician?
And finally, has Epic met his match? Who’s Epic, you say?
Oh, lemme show you.
i can’t honestly say which one is more insane but the fact it’s close speaks volumes.
Carry on my wayward son.
Shout out to 907 from the philaflava board for putting me on to this guy. Amazing stuff.
If you know of a rapper that makes your brain hurt in a bad way, lemme know. Email me at phatfriendblog@gmail.com and tell me all about what the bad man did to you.

I misread this at first and got kinda butt hurt. Thought you were saying that Mantronix was wack.
Did not mean to post a playlist. Weak.
HAHAHAHAHA…understandable mistake.
Makes me feel queasy. Horrible. Also, this video had been online for two years.
Have you seen “habitat”?
Jesus.
Oh, and actually that guy is some kind of 3rd tier british noble. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/culturevideo/10736790/Dave-In-Charge-worst-rapper-of-all-time-fights-back.html
damn that is next level of uk madness.up in scotland we are getting all these weird looking dudes rhyming over trap style beats too.
Oh god. This is comparable to watching the trailer for “what is it?”
I might throw up.
I think I posted him here before, it’s worth talking about Rap Tyson again
How anyone can bare more than 30 seconds of any of this shit is beyond me.
I don’t know what bothers me more, the horribly forced rap in the first song or that the second song is just rapping over a great Silent Hill song..
this is crazy dumb and weird.. i still think the song with froggy frog from the nine lp is more ridiculous.always makes me scratch my head
i also have another uk offering..this dude is a bit avant but obviously has mental problems,
Somehow, the Maxitronix is way worse than the Epic & Nomad.
I have equal parts pride and horror to know this was filmed in my hometown of Adelaide, Australia
My husband had me going insane over this damn video. Then we heard his album on bandcamp and realize the man is a fucking genius…
I need to find this guy. I found his album. Although unpolished I think it’s brilliant.
