 GEEKSTA
UK - The Album
(Milk-Plus)
The debut album by your UK host is now available on
iTunes.
14 tracks of bouncy Nerdcore Hip Hop with a distinct
UK twist. This album has been a long time in the making.
Milk-Plus entered his first Songfight (a weekly songwriting
competition) back in April 2006 with "If I Were
Italian" and then shelved the project for a few
years while focusing on the launch of a new recording
studio in Covent Garden, London. Although a fan of the
Nerdcore genre since it's conception (by another songfight
veteran MC Frontalot) it was the discovery of the next
generation of Nerdcore Hip Hop artists in the United
States that influenced the decision to resurrect the
"Geeksta
UK" album. Over the past couple of years Milk-Plus
has worked as a producer for young rappers across London
by day: By night.... he donned the large white specs
and set to work on completing his semi autobiographical
debut covering a range of topics relevant to Nerdy kids
across the globe, delivered with a unique British swagger.
"I'm lucky that I get to develop fresh rap talent
straight off the streets" says Milk-Plus at his
Nerdcore UK HQ. "I
try to steer the Hip Hop ship at Endell Street Studio
away from fake aggressive rap posturing and encourage
young rappers to write about their lives as they really
are. Sometimes that brings up pretty raw material, other
times it focuses more on day to day reality that everyone
can relate to. That's what Nerdcore Hip Hop is for me..."
The CD of Geeksta UK is available on CD Baby, itunes
& Amazon or you can grab it half price directly
via Paypal for £5. Just click the link below.

 On
the 5th November 2009 Torrentz entered their
first Songfight
with "Welcome Home Frank." Ok...
so it didn't win but it paved the way for
a whole host of nerdy rap collaborations which
culminated with the release of their debut
EP "Let's Get Bloody" on Game Music
4 All Records in 2010. The idea of a food
related concept album was born at around that
time and now, over a year in the making "The
Big Kahuna" is available for free download
over at Torrentz new spiritual home Scrub
Club Records. The album is a gastro celebration
featuring 22 rappers (including Nerdcore veteran
Beefy) and a host of new producer collaborations.
Torrentz continues to expand and develop with
it's ever changing roster of artists and ever
swelling core of producers. So what's next
for this international Nerdcore Supergroup?
There will be a host of new Songfight entries
over the coming months with a fresh release
in early 2012. Beyond that? well according
to founder member Fatback Supreme: "I
think we'll definitely do another concept
album. Perhaps a Sci-Fi epic or super hero
based album. Just keep an eye on our Facebook
page. " Whatever it is that Torrentz
does next you can rest assured it will be
worth a listen! Download
