Nardwuar is like the director of music intelligence. He always hits his guests up with shit that freaks them out. "how did you know that?" LOL. Keep on rocking Nardwuar.
i like how they are just being themselves and don't have to wear bling and act all cool like the other rappers... i gotta lot of respect for things guys
Haha Dap's baby impression in the end fucking cracks me up. I actually watched this entire interview again, forgetting I'd once seen it stoned, but that stuck out so much and I lost it.
This interview is awesome. Now I've got like 4 tabs open and a ton of stuff to listed to this weekend. Broke up or not, I'll buy what these guys are selling together or separately.
Dapwell was fine, Heems was hilarious, only Kool AD really sent off any negative vibe in my opinion. As for their music, I really think people took it waaay too seriously, fans and critics alike. They were just dudes with great flows, weird personas and occasionally insightful lyrics. The only reason so many people saw them as more than a rap trio/duo was because they made so many pop culture references that anyone could try to interpret their incoherence.
"So what's the significance of ____...!" "the f train...?" "In an interview you saaaiiidd ____!" "I don't really remember that mayne..." "Aaaand what about ____??" "I don't know what that is man..."
Took the words out of my mouth, man. Yeah by negativity I mean he's not on the same page with Nard, not negativity per se. Agree on the beats, some of the best I've ever heard, from Shut Up Dude to Relax. However I don't think they attract pretentious people, but rather they bring the pretention out in people somehow, kinda like how Lil B manages to get kids to think he's a lyricist just by spouting a bunch of names they know on a lazy repetitive flow.
lol I admire your co-opt of traditional segregation into street culture but I'd counter that hood is more about lifestyle than pedigree. not sure if he claims to be hood but guy sleeps on his team's couch stoned making rap music in a shitty neighborhood..that's fairly hood if u ask me.
They missed two lyircs. In one song, "puerto rican cousins", every line starts with 'shawty said I look like...' and that's all that nardwuar said. The other line was from "ek shaneesh" and once again, there many lines in a row that being with 'listening to...'. If there's one band that knows music, its the hyper referential Das Racist.
I don't think there was any negativity within the group, Heems and Kool A.D. just got tired of each other, it happens. You could always tell it was Dapwell and Heems who were the closest in the group, they're both Indian and knew each other first.
All these rap guys that Nardwuar interviews like Egyptian Lover. I used to listen to that in the 80's a little, never heard anyone ever mention him/them...
That was pretty dumb of nardwuar to go “shorty said I look likeeee” like he said that’s literally how they start like every line of that song how was he supposed to know which line he was talking about lmao
no you're definitely alone on that one. I don't really fuck with their music aside from a few songs but they are clearly funny guys judging from this. heems gets complimented twice on his knowledge of the komogatu maru and both times responds with "fa sho..." how could you not find that funny
"i think it's amazing that you know the story of the komagota maru, heems"
"fashooo"
Heems is hilarious
lol
Kool A.D should be headlining hip hop festivals.
hehe
"Survivor and Batman" Is that Kool AD"s new band but he changed his name to Batman?
2011-2012 was a wild time for hip hop.
Das Racist is dope af wish they would come back. Stopped to early imo. shit happens tho. We love you guys !
Didn't Kool AD like assault someone
@@SanjeevRauallegedly. Real reason was heems being hooked on heroin at the time
They weren't joking, Chingy is actually smart as fuck lmao
I learned about Das Racist from this interview, then listened to all their stuff, and have finally come back
They look like they're thinking, "ugh, we had to wake up at 1 pm today".
Imagine these guys came out this generation. I am surprised one of their songs didn't resurface on TikTok yet
oh god don’t even speak that into the ether…
they're whole "pizza hut taco bell" song came up
weed + being really smart = Nardwuar's outdoing. They're just too damn smart and apathetic.
"you could say chingy wrote the book on the komagata maru" hahaha
One of the few times ppl joined in on Narwuar's awkward post-interview pose.
Danny Brown did it
The Mars Volta started talking into the frozen held-out mike, thanking their fans etc
The dude on the left has the dopest sweater I've ever seen in my life. Next level cardigan swag.
7:46 is such a great reaction from them. I don’t know the context but it gets me every time
I love how knowledgeable these guys are. Crafty, clever, & in the knowing
That thing about Chingy was fricking hilarious
I miss these guys and their music so much!!
I literally watch this every time I see it on the sidebar, one of my fav nard interviews lol
Nardwuar is like the director of music intelligence. He always hits his guests up with shit that freaks them out. "how did you know that?" LOL. Keep on rocking Nardwuar.
"yo man how'd you get my 4th grade teacher to come fuck with me again" lmaoooo
Himanshu chuckle of peace.
their music made my summer, shame they broke up SMH
i like how they are just being themselves and don't have to wear bling and act all cool like the other rappers... i gotta lot of respect for things guys
5:50 "Wow."
woow.
sample that.
Stephen Goebbelcocque I
gonna look into this group because of this amazing interview
Well?
Haha Dap's baby impression in the end fucking cracks me up. I actually watched this entire interview again, forgetting I'd once seen it stoned, but that stuck out so much and I lost it.
this is so rare you're a real one for making this happen nard
Heems looks really puffy here.
conor mannering dude looks like he's coked out !!
This interview is awesome. Now I've got like 4 tabs open and a ton of stuff to listed to this weekend. Broke up or not, I'll buy what these guys are selling together or separately.
Awesome KMD reference!
Nardwuar is the Huell Howser of music to me
Affirmative action is soo good
I'm at the pizza hut
I'm at the taco bell
I'm at the combination pizza hut and taco bell
I always thought it was so fire that they had a hypeman
dap is one of the smartest hypemen iver ever seen
First time i've ever seen Dap and Kool AD so calm
Heems' laugh is adorable
Dapwell was fine, Heems was hilarious, only Kool AD really sent off any negative vibe in my opinion. As for their music, I really think people took it waaay too seriously, fans and critics alike. They were just dudes with great flows, weird personas and occasionally insightful lyrics. The only reason so many people saw them as more than a rap trio/duo was because they made so many pop culture references that anyone could try to interpret their incoherence.
Anyone who says DR is only pretentiously smart, go listen to You Can Sell Anything. Haters, please!
heems is so blazed in this interview
"So what's the significance of ____...!"
"the f train...?"
"In an interview you saaaiiidd ____!"
"I don't really remember that mayne..."
"Aaaand what about ____??"
"I don't know what that is man..."
can someone explain the fake das racist bit? still don't understand it to this DAY
search google for 'Fake Das Racist Twitter account'
i miss these fuggin dudes
"I'm alive...! I'm alive...!"
these dudes put on a good live show.. saw em at Fitzgeralds on tuesday
Duncan's Doughnuts is an amazing show.
Took the words out of my mouth, man. Yeah by negativity I mean he's not on the same page with Nard, not negativity per se. Agree on the beats, some of the best I've ever heard, from Shut Up Dude to Relax.

Great interview, Nardwuar!
They are so fucking stoned!
Wookie call ending is precious.
Wonderful video
Heems looks hungover in every single interview
they need to get back together as soon as possible
That's it, Egyptian Lover is in a shit ton of Nards interviews...i gotta peep this dude.
Bro, Heems is straight Brahmin. You can't be hood unless your Dalit.
lol I admire your co-opt of traditional segregation into street culture but I'd counter that hood is more about lifestyle than pedigree. not sure if he claims to be hood but guy sleeps on his team's couch stoned making rap music in a shitty neighborhood..that's fairly hood if u ask me.
Your mom can't be hood unless she's Dalit
still sad
lol after 8:35 perhaps the most informative segment of the interview.
Super jelly that apparently Kool got a Digital Underground.
Wow these guys are pretty knowledgable
They missed two lyircs. In one song, "puerto rican cousins", every line starts with 'shawty said I look like...' and that's all that nardwuar said. The other line was from "ek shaneesh" and once again, there many lines in a row that being with 'listening to...'. If there's one band that knows music, its the hyper referential Das Racist.
lmao ending was the best!
I don't think there was any negativity within the group, Heems and Kool A.D. just got tired of each other, it happens. You could always tell it was Dapwell and Heems who were the closest in the group, they're both Indian and knew each other first.
people just love to singing to Nardwuar
Wish they had covered more around the South Asian samples in their music!
Yoooo heems knew jins most famous line, “you wanna say I’m Chinese sonny, here’s a reminder, check your timbs they say made in China”
Ok, Fashion Party makes a lot more sense now that I've heard "Boy Crisis"
"ask your girl, i must of been doin somethin at her house, probably cuz i had my eggrolls and my dumplings in her mouth"-Jin @ 106 & Park rap battle
This and the OF interviews are the least awkward since both groups are "different"
they’re definitely high in this
They were high on ketamine 24/7, now they some uncles lol
@SeanChiruchi no he's asking them who the fake Das Racist is... it's apparently not Diplo.
"I would say crafty, clever, and also smart"
classic interview :)
these dudes had the world in their hands but dropped the ball harder than an anvil
i could smack em for breakin up
Love the Swollen reference haha
All these rap guys that Nardwuar interviews like Egyptian Lover. I used to listen to that in the 80's a little, never heard anyone ever mention him/them...
good catch.
yo...did you notice the freemason pin on heems?
Man I miss these guys.
Like those guys. Good work nard
shouts to del. tight name dude
must be the longest end pose ever pulled off successfully
hope you're feeling better Nardwuar
Hard to tell who's trolling more in this interview.
INTERVIEW LAKUTIS
Yeah, they actually seem pretty cool with the entire thing and seem like smart educated people.
You alright Nardwuar? ahahaha! I was drooling at the end...
That's strange, I'm feeling the opposite of that.
They fact that they have a hipster fan base is referenced in every interview or article I've read about them
Heems was the star of this interview
These guys are too cool.
daps freezing pose cracked me up man, shit
I wanna read the komagata maru now.
This is like a dream come true!!
I LOVE YOUR SHOW!!!!!!!!!!11111
That was pretty dumb of nardwuar to go “shorty said I look likeeee” like he said that’s literally how they start like every line of that song how was he supposed to know which line he was talking about lmao
Hi i'm a babyyyy
Nardwuar Vs. Das Racist. It had to happen and I'm so glad it did!
FUCKING AMAZING.
They didn't play pigeon of scream phoenix, though. I'm still shocked about that.
Nardwuar was pretty much born to interview groups like DR
They're not only pretentiously smart, but Kool's got the attitude for the stigma.
I miss these guys 🤣
no you're definitely alone on that one. I don't really fuck with their music aside from a few songs but they are clearly funny guys judging from this. heems gets complimented twice on his knowledge of the komogatu maru and both times responds with "fa sho..." how could you not find that funny
