Net Split or, the Fathomless Heartbreak of Online Itself

Couldn't have made "BURNER" without the Nerdcore genre this man started. Love this O.G.'s exasperated take on the modern internet, and hope he hasn't given it up entirely!

One of the two truest songs I've ever heard about being an artist. I love this entire album but Artist Anthem hits just right.

I didn't think it was possible to top "Raging Ego" because of how incredible it was but I was dead wrong. This record is flawless. Lex took sharp lyrics, phenomenal story telling and mind blowing beats and sharpened them into a fine and perfected blade of hip hop. Absolutely brilliant.

I love this whole album: It just captures a wide range of experiences and affects the listener with a wide range of emotions. I first liked this album because of the nerdcore elements, but I fell in love when I realized that these verses were true poetry, speaking to a deeper truth and beauty unlike most hip-hop I've heard. "A Poet" exemplifies this with its bittersweet message about how poetry is not valued. This is the first hip-hop tune I've ever shed a tear over. Take a bow, Mega Ran.
