      Nardwuar is a legend in the rap community. Its like he doesnt fit in so much that it all went full circle and he actually fits in just as well as the actual rappers. Best interviewer the world has ever seen, and it isnt even close.

      I think the scariest piece of info nardwuar has dug up on somehow has to be when he found out one of Slipknots members (At the time) secret identity, even the most hardcore fans only knew him by a number and Nardwuar brought up the old tribute band he used to play in "Naughty by nature" and he freaked out the band member so bad he just straight up left without saying anything else. That is some insane information gathering skill

    Nardwaur interviews are unreal, and a lot of musicians say it's the best interview they've ever had, because he always comes deeply prepared with questions about things he has learned about. You get to see their polished personas melt away and learn something real as they react to his questions. It would be fascinating to see him interview Eminem, Jay-Z, and a few others who tend to be very controlled in their responses to most interview questions. Nardwaur also has his own band, and there's footage of performances. Dig deeper and you'll find a lot more on UA-cam.

I heard it was the gift a childhood friend gave you before going missing who happens to be right here”. Then they’d bug out say how you know about that then say “well you’re z person we have to know.”

Watch as the the interviewee side-eyes him looking annoyed and bored by the schtick. Then watch his guard drop as he has his mind blown for ten minutes. Then watch him leave with hugs and handshakes, as a fan of Nardwuar. Same way you'll leave. But without the hugs :(
