One Emcee Slick brings us Borderlands: the rap. “When you’ve got seventy million guns / why use swords and knives? / I chose the hunter Mordecai / and now I’m level 45.” He knows it.

Awful, hilarious, hilariously awful, and awfully hilarious. I think that covers it.
report
More awful than hilarious if you ask me.

I’ve seen college humour spoof videos with more rapping talent than this dude.
report
Um….is this a test? A rhyme for Slick immediately entered my mind, but I didn’t feel the need to follow it up with a rap. You Tube indeed.

Painful

It’s just screaming for a good video to be made.

This calls for a christian side hug!!

That there’s the true spirit of NGJ for you!
These guys may have been tossed aside into a cultural ghetto, but will they let it get in their way?
Of course not! They’re just going to start busting raps, fool!
report
The framerate of the video is kinda slow, 1 frame / 20 seconds. He looks, a District 9 weapon!
I can’t say if the music is good or bad. Not my tea cup. It kind of sounds ok for this type of thing, I suppose.

I hate most rap with a passion but nerdcore is a guilty pleasure.
report
awful. just awful. bordering on painful actually.

Crikey.
/me puts some Deltron 3030 on.
CLEANSE ME OF THIS HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE DEAR DELTRON.
report
Just kind bad.
report
Flow like a brick
report
Can’t really make up my mind, but we definitely need more posts tagged “I don’t know if this is awesome or awful”.
report
Hint: It’s awful.
It’s very Deltron 3030. But shit.
report
I had an inkling this would be questionable when I saw the word baby in the title of the news post.
Does anyone still say that? Really? Oh no. Are we having a rebirth of the seventies?
…right, that’s it. I’m going to hibernate for a decade or ten, wake me up when it’s all over.

X-BOX 360 REPRESENT!

I think the Claptrap web series is also worth a mention; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BK4SJHK6eXE
report
I hadn’t seen that before, really enjoyed it, I must play the DLC at some point really
report
It’s not really up to the standard of the now legendary Predato Rap….
report
Flow is so so. Rhymes are good though. In terms of pure rhyming skills one of the best game-related raps I’ve heard (not coming from a professional rapper, that is).
When it comes to professional rap that is game related there definitely is a ton of better stuff (and i’m not even talking nerdcore):
Fresh Daily – Video Gaming.
Blumentopf – Profis.
“Bei Pro Evolution bin ich Meistertrainer, bei Gran Turismo bin ich Geisterjäger. Ich werd zum Kasparov, wenn ich Advance Wars zock.” (…) “Ich fahr die Rainbow Road mit geschlossenen Augen, und spiel Ninja Gaiden mit gebrochenem Daumen”
UNI – Castlevania.
“This rap shit be the code of life, its like up, down, up, down, A, B, left, right.”
…to name a few.
report
This rap is better than my crash-ridden version of Borderlands. That’s how bad a port the game is.
Fix my fucking Borderlands!!!
report
After listening to The Adventures of Duane and Brando, all other video game-related rap music falls short. It’s a shame Duane and Brando hate each other now, so we probably won’t be seeing any more of their genius.

It’s all about the PENTIUMS!

gah, wrong parody
report
Ugh. I’m fine with nerdcore, but this is just bad. I mean bad bad. Take it away and put it down.
report
Stuff like this really helps dispel the myth that all gamers are fuck-off-massive NERDS.
/sarcasm.
report
This is terrible.
And not even the good kind of terrible. It’s absolutely god-awful.
report
OMG!!! hmmmm…..listen to this or burn my flesh and salt the wound?……….hmmmmmm….STEVE!!!GET OVER HERE! P.S. the team headkicks song is MUCH MUCH more acceptable than this…..that and its all about the hunter.lame.
