Where it comes from
From nerd + -core.
noun
- An intentionally nerdy style of hip-hop music. Many nerdcore anthems — “You Got Asperger’s” by MC Frontalot, “Fett’s Vette” by MC Chris, “View Source,” by Ytcracker (“Eagerly awaiting my macro advances/running with my beta cuz I’m taking chances”) — are as much efforts at comedy as they are attempts at sincere hip-hop.
- The most dedicated nerds, especially in terms of computer ability. We're tech reviewers, not nerdcore programmers…
