Well, the promised Nerdcore Hip-Hop CDs, Rhyme Torrents, are online at http://www.rhymetorrents.com/. There’s also a news site at http://www.nerdcorehiphop.org.

Why does this matter to you, the BeOS user? Because it’s the first time BeOS has ever been mentioned in a rap song. Check out the posse track on disc 4, at the end. It’s 13 MCs, 16 minutes long, and I mention BeOS, the Amiga 600 and even the VIC-20. How geeky is that?

You can also get Sandwich Boy aka High-C’s long lost track ‘Rick James’ Crack Pipe’, which clearly uses Marco’s Soundplayer ap, at http://www.rhymetorrents.com/highc

Rhyme Torrents Volume Five is in the works as well. 80+ tracks of rapping nerds and geeks? How can this not fail to win hearts and minds the world over? Crips and bloods will now join hands, and start to argue over Linux distribtion preferences and the like.

Or maybe I’m just manic from working on it for so long. Use the torrents, if you can, there are some big reviews hitting the web soon (cough Slashdot cough), and we’ll also be in Wired magazine (print edition) in August. But you heard it here first.

Tell your geekiest friends! ; )
