This is the nerdiest, whitest guy ever, but the fact that he can jam out so rediculously hard and gives props to hip hop greats like timberland and dr. dre, just adds to his awesomeness factor.

This guy needs a label already.



@ the idiot savant comment, that is just what you were trying not to be, ignorant and rude.

That is raw talent in its truest, purest, untainted form.

I knew there would be someone that would don the "Mantle of Offense" at my use of the words idiot-savant. That is why I had the disclaimer, and no I wasn't trying to be ignorant, but I knew someone is going to ignorant about the term that I used. All because of the word idiot.........

What is an idiot savant?

Current research theories show that intelligence is non-local and not bound to the brain. Sometimes nature offers insight into a particular subject by presenting a baffling enigma and contradictory example. Intelligence's contradictory enigma is the idiot-savant.

The word idiot usually refers to a simpleton, in contrast to the word "savant" in French that means "learned one." Idiot savants are a subgroup of a class of people called idiots with an IQ of about 25.

Idiot savants are a group of humans that are incapable of learning, writing or reading, yet they have unlimited access to specific, accurate knowledge in the fields of mathematics, music, and other precise areas. Now the irony of an idiot-savant is that this group of individuals does not acquire knowledge by learning as the average human does. They mysteriously 'know' explicit, exact, correct information. One may wonder: "How do idiots savants know certain information or possess certain skills?" By whatever means they obtain this information, they undermine current definitions about intelligence. Does their knowledge show that a source of intelligence exists? Is it possible to tap into this source and not know of its existence?

Dustin Hoffman made idiot-savants famous in the Hollywood movie "Rain Man." He played the role of a mathematical genius able to keep track of cards at the casino, yet unable to go to the bathroom alone or to make simple decisions about what clothes to wear or foods to eat. Modern science cannot explain this phenomenon.

So, no........... I wasn't trying to be ignorant and rude, and my comment was neither ignorant nor rude.
