@mattyballz ! Thanks so much for the kind words and taking the time to do this ! Really appreciate the support ! So nice of you ! Hope all is well ! Thanks again ! Doot doola doot doo ...
Can't believe you didn't mention him interviewing Kurt Cobain just a few weeks before he died. Also he had a stroke in 2015 and managed to recover quite quickly and get back in the game.
It's saddening, coming from a punk background knowing him not getting same acceptance from the punk scene compared to the rap scene. The punk scene was built off this odd ball personalities too. Which I can see where he gets it from. Especially in his generation. But I'm glad that in my generation we all have so much love for him ❤
I've got a bit more of a positive spin on it, at least for me. Watching Tom Morello, Greg Graffin and Henry Rollins all be a bit stuck up and dicks compared to Lars Fredrickson shifted how I viewed their bands years ago. I still like some of Black Flag, most of Rage and most of Bad Religions music but Rancid has become probably my favourite band. The more the years go by and the more you learn about bands and music the more it becomes very clear that Nardwuar's interviews do a great job of showcasing people and music you can really get behind that are genuine vs. some that you're a bit more careful with. He's probably the best character barometer around. He gives off the impression of absolute clown the first time you see him, and within a minute you know he did his research and care way more about the artists story and history than anyone else they've probably ever been interviewed by. If you can't respect that and engage with him at all then you're either a very guarded person (Which happens) or just an asshole, if you're mean to the guy then you're a complete write off imo.
He is just so annoying which is also why he’s easy to pick on, from the look to the voice to the pestering behavior. He’s the dorky kid who won’t shut up that we all grew up with. His relatability is just that but his job skills are a different topic. Guess I’m an asshole because I find a person annoying for their actions which is just to receive attention like a child
@@Gixsira lot of us were that dorky kid. Even a lot of punks. He's not trying to be annoying for attention he's just being himself by trying to be curious. And that's what punks about, being your authentic self.
Nardwuar's TED talk def made me think a lot more about what there is to lose about just asking something from someone. And that mostly boiled down to just nothing can go wrong except no. He's made quite an impact on my life and im thankful for him.
I started watching Nardwuar videos during the middle of lockdown and they’ve been some of the funniest things I’ve ever watched. His come up Is very inspiring and I wish him nothing but success
@@ItzSonic69 you’re hardly answering my question or making a point. Idk maybe I’m misunderstanding but Everytime I hear a TH-camr brag, sorry mention being locked down all I hear is “back in nam…” or Normandy etc like it’s some damn war story. We all know what happened in 2020 and though I’ve never been on the battlefield im quite sure being “locked down” wasn’t as bad as the latter. It seems to be a buzzword ppl throw out a lot to fit in on TH-cam comments though. Trying to be relatable, ok fine whatever but it sure ain’t me.
THIS MAN IS A LOCAL HERO. us vancity peeps absolutely adore this guy. probably one of the most respected people in the city and it's a dream of mine to get big enough to warrant a nardwuar interview and see what deep info he pulls out LMFAO. love this dude and loved this vid. keep this shit going matty
Ain’t that crazy. When nardwaur wasn’t appreciated in his on culture he came over to the black culture and we accepted him😂. We acceptive of every body!
@@zwenkwiel816 sadly it's a bit too accurate... when James Brown is one of the one of the first folks to be receptive, followed by the rap community accepting him being high energy and more passionate... what does that imply?
I’ve met Nardwuar multiple times and attended his shows. Yeah - that’s him. No pretense. One of my favourite moments was when he got ejected from the Juno Awards for asking a typical Nardwuar question at a producer’s press conference after an award win. He then snuck back in and had a really nice sit down interview with the same producer. He really is “The Man Who Knew Too Much.”
i swear i love nardwuar man grew up watching him and forever will keep watching him he is a really cool person and deserves all the respect and blessings he gets
This has me in legit tears I love and respect him so much he just screams passion and authenticity and pureness what a dream to sit down and talk with him
I fucking love Nardwuar & have for the past like 10 years. His videos/interviews are amazing & I love seeing him surprise whoever he’s interviewing with how much he knows about them. I love how Hip-Hop has accepted him like they have. Hope he’s living his BEST life
Nardwuar seems like a man outta time, ahead of the curve. That kinda energy is fairly well received nowadays. Great up gettin picked on too and seeing his energy was always a breathe of fresh air. Mans was genuine always.
hes an inspiration for sure, grew up on his interviews of rap culture and the way that other genres mistreated him in his early days is disgusting. Hes balls to the wall enjoyable and obviously gives it his all and is passionate. We can all learn a lot from him and his determination to master his craft.
Thank you for this vid. I'm 34 and somehow just found out who he was a few months ago, and I was automatically taken with him and his style. I'm so glad I got this recommended to me. So happy to kno all this now.
I am also 34 years old, somewhat recently discovered him.. and I don't like his style at all. This video makes me appreciate him and his work, but I still don't like his style and I will not be watching his interviews if I can help it.
sadly, in time there will be a moment when someone starts making the sheet Nardwuar wears over his head at time with his punk band something that it isn't. great work Matty, enjoying the content.
I feel like people love him so much is that he’s really genuine with his questions and gifts he isn’t forcing his reactions like some have if you hate him respectfully you should be jumped
My dad actually was interviewed by nardwaur while in Vancouver in the 90’s. nardwaur was punk and started his interviews with the punk scene in Vancouver
🤖🌞💟thank you matty! & love nardwuar glad he got a mini doc on his life! love it alot and always look forward to your video's forever appreciate for your existence on TH-cam💟🌞🤖
My favorite nardwuar interviews are the first Henry Rollins and the first Josh Homme ones. You can see how annoyed they are at first but by the end they are really impressed. I'm sure there's others but those stick out to me.
You Goated for this MattyBallz...Nardwuar needed his flowers 🌹 🌹 🌹 he does a Great Job. I'm an older-generation hip-hop guy 80s to the early 2000s. He helps me understand all the new artists. He put me on to a lot of New artist ik I probably wouldn't have paid any mind to. Made me like them because now I understand them. And even artist of my generation help me get a better understanding of them also
Another great thing about him is that unlike any other interviewer, he doesn't ask scandalous questions or try to trap people for sensationalism. He's the only genuine interviewer. He could interview Kanye right now and not even ask about anything jewish or divorce or cancel culture. He's wholesome and the big media doesn't want that, they want mud slinging.
Nardwuar is so unapologetically himself, in the music industry full of fake people this can make some people jealous. Might also be part of why rappers like him more....
I can't be the only person who would be PSYCHED to see the world's first interview battle pitting defending champion and living legend Nardwuar The Human Serviette versus the rising undefeated challenger, The Sherpa of Mount Scoville, Spicelord Supreme and host of Hot Ones (the show with hot questions and even hotter wings), Sean Evans.
How is he the most iconic interviewer? Im 40 years old and consume content aggressively and this is the first time ive ever heard of this guy or have seen that face, right now. This video.
I saw this dude randomly talking to a group of his fans randomly in Vegas at the Excalibur during the first Day in Vegas festival. Seemed like a cool guy, didn’t know who he was but he seemed nice.
I wonder if the scene is different with rappers because the rappers he initially interviewed were such lovers of music and took themselves seriously. For some of them, its not just fame, but it's an art or a business which itself can be an art. I wonder if a lot of the other artists were overly arrogant thinking it came off as confident or badass. There's a chance it's less about genre and just him striking the chord with the right kind of musicians. James Brown and Kurt Cobain enjoyed him. I can easily see it that the people he interviewed that disrespected him and his generosity did it as something they think was awesome. They were probably in music to be famous and cool instead of coming from an earnest place. A lot of rappers and their producers are fans of music. Typically, they enjoy different genres because their love for music comes from a lot of its roots that a select few people can really connect to or at least understand its beauty. You can kind of see which artsist stand the test of time based on how they react and treat Nardwuar in a time where he wasn't as well known as he is now.
Interesting fact about that Jay-Z interview. Nardwuar was actually stuck in traffic on the way to the Pemberton Music Festival, and it probably would have pushed his arrival back a few hours. Pharell and MUCH went up to the RCMP (local police) and let them know Nardwuar was stuck in traffic and wondered if they could help him get there to do the interview. The officer mentioned he was a big fan of Nardwuar and got on the radio to see if another officer could give him a police escort to the venue - which I am pretty certain they did. Source: I was there, backstage in the media area when this happened
The second interesting thing about the interview was the Nardwuar wasn't given much time to prepare for the interview, which somewhat explains the frazzled and unprepared nature it has compared to most of his other music interviews.
He is right about always learning and the dangers of thinking how well informed you are. And inspiring people is the only thing my ego allow me to like about myself if and when I do. I think my opinion like many evolved because I assume someone like that has more confidence than me But didn't know he did the studdering John thing at first
"Quiero que me entreviste Nardwar, quiero salir en De Todo y Rap, que me referencie Kendrick Lamar, en alguna canción que esté por sacar" Nardward es la verga.

he is so much fun to watch every time and so is this channel 🤘
I got into nardwaur in middle school. Loved his slipknot and the mars Volta interviews, always find hidden gems through the samples he mentions.
Nardwuar is the definition of if you keep persisting with what you enjoy the world will have to grow to like you for atleast one thing you do
Unless you keep persisting on being a dick but yeah for sure I agree
He's an amazing natural performer. I never seen him as just a interviewer but as another performer interviewing a performer.
Nardwuar is an amazing interviewer. No cap.

Add some clips or some music or something. You just droning on bro
had no idea he had been interviewing for so long ngl
Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear that dope hat
Nardwuar the goat so smart I hope he interviews me one day
Good vid

Nardwuar is as much an artist as anyone he interviews.
I understand why people think he's annoying he's not trying to be though.
Well done bro, love Nar! ✊🏼
If you hate nardwuar that’s a huge red flag
Man, Nardwuar is such a secretive guy, I bet Nardwuar would totally be stumped on gifts for him if he interviewed him

Example of how far being urself can get you

THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT. THATS WHY HE'S THE MVP THATS WHY HE'S THE GOAT!! THE GOOOAATTTT!!!!
Wow his mom sounds like the sweetest thing ❤
