Nerdcore

Round One: Fandom at its Finest

Overall Theme: Fandom is a strong part of nerdcore hip hop. We all have our favorite movies, book series, comics, video games, etc. As such, the first round of VPC III will be about that very fandom.

Team Krunktaku All Day Mix

Round Two: Nerd Life

Overall Theme:  This is a track about the reality of your life as a nerd.

Team Krunktaku - Boxes

Superstition!

This is the Tie Breaker for Round 2 of the VPC
What’s the Challenge?
Write a song about a, or many, superstitions.  The production will be sample driven featuring Stevie Wonder’s Superstition.  The track will be short, sweet, punch hard, and leave the judges wanting to listen to it on repeat.  Go hard or go home on this.  This is the three-way tie breaker.

Team Krunktaku - Pooperstition

Round 3 Challenge: We all know that Nerdcore, as a whole, is full of the intellectual types.  Now it’s time to show off your brains!  In this challenge, we’re asking that you teach the judges a thing or two.   That’s right.  You need to teach me how to _________________.     We want to hear you educate us, and by the time we’ve finished listening through all these tracks, we hope to come away just a little bit smarter because of you. 

Team Krunktaku - How To Be A Supervillain

Overall Theme:  Extreme Discomfort/Phobia

How suiting, for the challenge most feared in the VPC.  You have a wide open field here and can choose to rap about anything that entices fear, discomfort, trepidation.  It can be a phobia that you have, it can be a situation you have experienced.  The song does not have to be about the fear of that object or situation, it can simply be about it if you’d like.  Hate spiders?  You can write a song about spiders without having to write about your fear of them.  We just want you to embrace that uncomfortableness or fear.
