Hand'Solo Records just released a new mixtape of nerdy hip hop:
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.

VERSE 1
Yo, as a kid my favourite comic was Nth Man, The Ultimate Ninja
You got every one of those in multiples, didn’t ya?
Yeah, and it took a while to, uh, collect ‘em all
Got the last one I needed down at the shitty mall
Yes yes y’all, like Lee Falk that’s real talk
And when I’m not reading ‘em, keep safe in a sealed box
Spidey, Booster Gold and X-Men
Ninja Turtles, The Tick and John Byrne’s Next Men
Collecting Milk & Cheese, Wilkies To Strange Adventures
For real geeks who can name Avengers
Like Triathlon, Tigra, Jack Of Hearts
USAgent, though he was always in the wackest arcs
You like Starfox? That wouldn’t bug me
Dude saw more pussy than Catwoman’s undies
Trust me, like Hawkeye and Mockingbird
You can call me a nerd, I like my drawings with words
Word.
CHORUS
I was into comic books and watching cartoons
Irredeemable, Incorruptable, Invincible
Justice League Europe and, uh, The Invisibles
Stray Toasters, Stilt-Man, Gravity
Grimjack, Concrete, Avengers Academy
VERSE 2
Now, my man R-Lex put me onto SCUD
That KISS comic is made with blood
And Squadron Supreme had Gruenwald’s ashes in
Worth a lot – but I could never cash it in
And that’s dumber than kidnapping Jim Gordon
Wanna make money? Open a Tim Hortons
What can I say? I like art in books
From Steve McNiven’s to Darwyn Cooke’s
House of Ideas, Distinguished Competition
Back issues? I’ll be diggin on a mission
In the depths of the dollar and quarter bins
For rare singles that no one was ordering
And whatchu know about Wood-God?
Well, he’s a Man-Brute life-form who looks odd
And I gotta give props to the king Jack Kirby
You want to talk shop? Well ask Burgie
CHORUS
I was into comic books and watching cartoons
Stan Lee, Alan Moore and Erik Larsen
Reid Flemming, Flaming Carrot, McFarlane
George Perez, Steve Ditko, Art Adams
Jocasta is part robot, part madam
OUTRO
This is for the forward front facers, the true believers
Who know the walking dead don't need shoes or sneakers
You know I don't know how to end this
'Cause I can go on about comics forever like Bendis
Ryan Ottley, what's up man?
Yo, J-Bone, I keep giving you money like a pay phone
I gotta shout out all my people
Strange Adventures to the Silver Snail
Ah, you got a question, Burgie will know
I make Canadian jams like Bernie Mireault
Google it.
