Incredibly, it’s becoming cool to be a nerd in America. From oversized black glasses to spending hours gaming and reading comic books, nerdom is slowly but surely becoming something to be proud of instead of a hobby you need to keep as secret as your Pokemon collection (still need to take your lady out once in awhile, Urkel). The new generation of hip hop artists are at the forefront of this movement, as shown by Paperboy, the latest track from self-proclaimed nerds B.o.B. and Charles Hamilton. Using the theme of the classic Nintendo game with the same title as their starting point, the former XXL Freshmen don’t hold anything back, with both producing (along with Woody and bass by Kato) in addition to manning the mics. Lyrically both artists show their talents as they use their creativity to compare themselves to everything from the “top of a capital A” and the D List’s Kathy Griffin. So far the collaboration is just for kicks, but if it morphs into something bigger you’ll know where to find out first. Nerds unite!

I can't listen to this without thinking of about half of the background music used in Napoleon Dynamite. He sampled it, right? Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Both emcees do a good job here - I can see this being a guilty pleasure song for a lot of people.

If you're not a fan of off-kilter, weird rhymes than I totally understand how you could now be feeling this. However, there's nothing I like more than some challenging lyricism, so I've had this on repeat all day. They might not always sound perfect, but I'll always listen to a new Charles or B.o.B. track, and that's not something I can say about every rapper.

This just doesn't make much sense to me. These two talented artists collab and the end result is a somewhat forgettable song named after a stupid 90's video game? My expectations are much higher for both emcees and this fell short.

To say this exceeded my pre-listen expectations is an understatement. So much to like. Distinctive Concept? Yep. Creative Lyrics? You already knew that. Captive Production? For Sure. I wish more artists made quality Hip Hop like this.

Oh this is crazy haha
Ok, aye Charlie
wassup this Bobby

Oh, ya don't say so, vote for Pedro
wait, I mean vote for Kay tho he's on the base though yeah
you know we chop it up like Idaho potatoes
so on this beat we chopping chopping chopping chopping...

[Chorus]
Two wheeler on the road with that paperboy
18 speeds with the paperboy
goin' door to door with the paperboy
burnin' trees no seeds just the paperboy
Two wheeler on the road with that paperboy
18 speeds with the paperboy
goin' door to door with the paperboy
we be them paperboys, we be them paperboys, ayy

[Charles Hamilton]
Top of the verse like the first bar
drunk as a Disney child star, hurts hard
feelin' Buffy on my huffy when the skirts off
I can mashpotato turnin' you jerks off
So cool, raisin in the sun until its prune juice
playin' with guns till I say the someone to shoot loose
perfect circle like the group I used to groove to
top of the Capital A because I work hard
Makin' the band gettin' laid in the van
but I never shake in my vans, just takin' chances
smirk Charles your goin' berserk Charles
CH is perfect with the Kurt bars just incase you Mr.
like Wilson, rappers on my radar, so its Hilson
school n!ggas like readers make what you feel bend
ask Chris Rock, went over your head call an astronaut
I'm the special that you have to watch
SmackDown for Playstion, pass the rock
Sonic the Hedgehog, fast or not
attitude of Kathy Griffin, fat but hot
counting wanna see all the cash I got
b!tch you ain't a CPA so you can have the nots
N.O.T no K Ok? Yo Kay to?
basically I'm bottomin' out Suitcase flows


[Chorus]
Two wheeler on the road with that paperboy
18 speeds with the paperboy
goin' door to door with the paperboy
burnin' trees no seeds just the paperboy
Two wheeler on the road with that paperboy
18 speeds with the paperboy
goin' door to door with the paperboy
we be them paperboys, we be them paperboys, ayy

[B.o.B]
I got skills
Nun-chuck Skills
Rowing Skills
Bowling Skills
I'm pretty much flowin' still so I guess I got floating skills
but y'all are so enquilt
all on this like toes on stilts
so I tilt on like rollin wheels
Y'all fall down like bowling pills
Bowling pins I don't know here I go floatin' again
Up into the sky like smoke into the wind
up to the Ozone again
here's the grand opening
here we go show again, what am I frozen again?
What am I what am I frozen again?
I don't even know this flow who know where it is?
I don't even roll with a pen
I don't even know when its cold
I be in the cold when its 32 below with a grin
I don't even know but I limp
I don't even know when I'm here
I be in the zone when I flow
Cause I float like a boat full of coke
in a moat when they get to the coast and they get to the show
when they Chopin Chopin Chopin...

[Chorus]
Two wheeler on the road with that paperboy
18 speeds with the paperboy
goin' door to door with the paperboy
burnin' trees no seas just the paperboy
Two wheeler on the road with that paperboy
18 speeds with the paperboy
goin' door to door with the paperboy
we be them paperboys, we be them paperboys, ayy

Have to agree with Z expected more from these two. Not bad Charles kind of killed it though. In the rotation.

The more I listen to this the more I like it. I think its the rolling bassline. Both MCs kill it.

loving this song!! the beat is soo different to what alot of the stuff ive heard recently, kinda electro funky, very catchy. dont mind the lyrics here either, hamilton has got some nice lines, b.o.b spits some really gud lines too. i reckon this song is a lil underated by ppl, catchy beat, decent lyrics, defs in rotation
