Why is it that turntablism is influenced so much by nerd culture?

It is common to hear them sampling things like old super heroe movies, anime and even street fighter games.

What is the relationship between hip hop and nerd culture and why are they so commonly joined together?
>>
Because its probably some of the only media they consumed as kids and enjoyed alot?
>>
>>64789564
Charlie Sloth is why.

DJs are busy doing their thing and do not (have to) dance on the floor. They usually know tons of music. It's a nerd's role.
>>
Niggers like media based on fighting, big surprise.
>>
>>64789717
But a lot pof the best hip hop DJs are white or Filipino and have been since the 90s.

listen to the intro from 20 seconds onwards

Charlie sloth was only born in 1987.

There was shit loads of hip hop influenced by nerd culture when he was 5 years old.

what is it with hip hop and weeb culture? from wu with their samuri shit to all the new school rappers who rap about anime and shit.
>>
>>64791406
It's cool to be different, yo. When all the normies catch on they will change.
>>
>>64791443
So turntablism and under ground hip hop aren't normie genres?
>>
>>64791588
What are you even asking?
>>
>>64791616

I was just wondering...
>>
>>64789564

Because Hip-Hop golden era was full of 20 year olds guys who grew up watching cartoons and anime and engaging in "ner culture". So it's more prevalent in hiphop than say rock which at the time fluctuated betwen various age groups.

Wow a single group of pinoys make their entire race some sort of purveyors in tuntabilism when in reality they aint shit compared to their black contemporaries.

>omg they beat a bunch of amateurs in underground and international comps, clearly GOAT

Get back to me when they actually innovate or take the genre in a new direction.

What about DJ Babu?

He is also Pinoy.

Grand Wizzard Theodore, DJ Kool Herc, Afrika Bambaataa, DJ Jazzy Jeff, DJ Screw.

What do the pinoys have again, orbiting, which they had to be taught flaring in order to create, my sides.

Get the fuck out.

So you think being Pinoy Automatically makes someone a bad DJ?

Whos this fuckface

Some sexy black chick.
>>
>>64792507

No but some faggot claimed the only good DJs were whites and pinoys. Pinoys can scratch records but trying to say they're the best and no other race can touch them is beyond retarded. Blacks created the genre, and made the most contributions and innovations within it.
>>
>>64792600
where did someone say pinoys are the best?

I must have missed that.

I named six different DJs who pushed the genre forward you have yet to name one despite the fact I gave you DJ Qbert.

You must be delusional pinoy who doesn't know fuck all about turntablism.

You said they're better than everyone and can't even back that up, now you're backpedaling and trying argue about the talents of whatever DJ you want to cherrypick in order to avoid my counter-argument.

You said pinoys are the best and have been since the 90s.

Name sixpinoy DJs that are better or equally as good as the six black ones I named, all of which birth new styles/genres within turntablism/hip-hop.
>>
>>64792756

Pinoys are good DJs and there are some than I'd say could very well deserve the title. My issue is with his cherrypicking races and then ignoring the ones who are the most instrumental to the genre.

Personally I think hip hop and anime have never came together.

Hip hop has always just been about guns and shooting people... never anime weeb type shit.

Hiphop made one the first AMVs ever made, the first to air on television and be released in a mainstream capacity.

Kanye was born in 1977

correct.

>>64798817
That's not true though..

Even people who do the whole gangster thing do the nerd thing as well.

Think wu tang clan for example.
>>
>>64799307
Kung fu movies aren't really a weeb thing though.
>>
>>64799769
Yes, they are.
>>
>>64789564
Same reason all the DJs are fucking nerds.
You need to be a goddamn nerd to be this invested in that sort of music.

Also Nigger Moon is really cute.
>>
>>64789564
1. That's what people our age were into, and that's what we want to reference in our beats

2. Collecting/finding samples is sort of like collecting/finding pokemon. Same amount of rarity/excitement when you figure out the Brazilian jazz nigga who LuM sampled

>nerd culture
Just awful, had to work beside two weebs at my old job. They were really fucking annoying, but one of them was cute and she had a boyfriend who looked like he was 45.
