Wordburglar, “Rapplicable Skills” LP
Your friend’s brother’s favourite Canadian underground nerdy rap luminary returns with a non-stop, lyrical boom-bap masterpiece. Applying his unique blend of humour-infused wordplay, intricate storytelling and classic hip-hop mentality over a canvas of crushing bangers, hypnotic head-nodders and razor-sharp turntablism, his nerdy honesty, cutting puns and “what did he just say?” rhyme style are fully on point and ready to get injected into your ear-brains. From party tracks and hilarious punchline putdowns to video game conquests, ghost stories, comic shops, NHL Hall of Famers and hometown pride, Wordburglar has covered it all in extensively entertaining, rhyme-packed detail.
An instant rap party, “RAPPLICABLE SKILLS” contains 15 slammin’ tracks of ‘Burg’s patented lyricism over bumpin’ production from Beatmason, Fresh Kils, Milk Plus, Peter Project, Savilion and Timbuktu. Featuring the turntablism of DJ Irate, More Or Les & Uncle Fes and guest appearances from Chokeules, Ghettosocks, MC Frontalot, Mega Ran, Savilion, Sy-Fi, Timbuktu and Ultra Magnus.
“Rapplicable Skills” drops August 28th.

Grandpa Funnybook’s Mix-Tapingly Arranged Rapping Song Album 2: Dyadic Dynamite returns to the fun formula of last year’s successful first volume of the series, a mixtape of hip hop compiled to please the nerdy crowds at Fan Expo in order to commemorate the first appearance of Hand’Solo Records at the Toronto sci-fi/comic book convention. Once again returning to Fan Expo, Hand’Solo Records celebrates with volume 2, spearheaded by Wordburglar and hosted by Grandpa Funnybook, Burg’s hilarious homage to Marvel mastermind Stan Lee. Dyadic Dynamite features banging boom bap beats and witty lyrics about cartoons, comics, Klingons, time machines,Transformers, zombies and Zentraedi, alongside plenty of pop-culture braggadocio. As with all sequels, volume 2 notches up the action with an increased number of new songs and remixes, featuring Wordburglar and some his Backburner brethren (More Or Les, Ghettosocks, Jesse Dangerously, Swamp Thing, Fresh Kils and Frank Deluxe), nerdcore stalwarts such as Beefy, Death*Star and Garthim-Master, and hip hop heads like CasUno, Touch and El Da Sensei, emcees who only occasionally speak geek. Inspired by Giant Size X-Men #1, the cover art was supplied by Kody Peters, again, with the mix handled this time by Peter Project (Sound Battle Royale 2010 winner).
The limited edition CD was released first at Fan Expo on the weekend of August 23-26, although all remaining hardcopies are now available for only $5 alongside the FREE DOWNLOAD of the digital album found on Bandcamp.
