Nardwuar is a Canadian interviewer who has been doing his thang since the mid 80's. He is an incredibly intelligent, eccentric and funny guy who puts out some of the most engaging and well researched interviews I've seen. He interviews old and new artists from all genres, but his Golden age hip-hop ones are especially good! Nardwuar researches the people he's talking too the a near creepy degree. He makes a habit of giving people gifts of vinyl LP's that serve as conversation topics. He's knowledge of musical influences and events related to his interviewee always makes them feel uncomfortable and taken aback. While watching these videos, I suggest writing down some of the obscure groups Nardwuar references because there are some gems!
His videos are a great place to learn more about your favourite artists or discover new ones!
