Ask mc chris

Many of you are no doubt familiar with the works of mc chris. He's probably most well known as the high pitched rapper on the track 'Fett's Vette' that you probably have an MP3 of somewhere. In addition to several highly entertaing albums, he's also the voice of MC Pee Pants (Aqua Teen Hunger Force) and Hesh (Sealab 2021). He's now touring, but you better already have tickets since he sold out his first 8 shows (including my local venue. The wife is very unhappy with me for not getting tickets in time). He'll also be performing at the Penny Arcade Expo later this year. This is your chance to ask him those burning questions. Standard Slashdot interview rules apply: Ask here, and we'll pick from the best of them and then wait patiently for Chris to bless us with his words.

    I recognize the same voice as both Hesh and on ATHF.

    I'm not impressed by his character work or rapping at all. Maybe I'm a minority with this opinion, but there are thousands of really talented people out there in these fields - and he's not one of them.

    Oh my, you're right. Posting this story is taking up space on a website that you read for news. Holy crap, that's horrible. Where were the people complaining when the guys from Penny-Arcade were interviewed?

    mc chris is a nerdcore rapper, he raps about things we would find amusing. Unless someone from /. breaks into your home and holds a gun to your head forcing you to read stories you don't care about, don't complain. You can just skip over the stuff you don't care about.

    And you argued against yourself, you know. "This story is a silly thing to post." followed by "Taco can post whatever he wants"

  3. AdultSwim by hot_Karls_bad_cavern · · Score: 4, Insightful

    As soon as your mate's shitty band gets played nightly in bumps, shows, and theme songs on something like, AdultSwim or somesuch.

    The whole idea of being "geek" is that you don't fit in. If we needed membership to be geek, then those of us who are truly geek would never be let in the club to begin with.

    Talk about missing the point...

  5. Birthday song by kirkb · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Since the 'Happy Birthday' song is copyrighted, would you consider open-sourcing Hesh's Birthday Song under something like the Creative Commons License? I'd rather hear it than the cheezy home-brew birthday songs that restaurants are forced to devise.

    the one geek to out-geek them all. mc is one of the greats of nerdcore. listen to some of his free tracks at his website. "geek" isn't all about linux, guy.
