Nardwuar: Best Music Journalist?
One of the strangest looking dudes ever also happens to be one of the best music journalist alive. His name is Nardwuar, and he a Canadian celebrity interviewer and musician. Most of you probably are unfamiliar with the guy, but its time that all changed. I guarantee if you fancy yourself a fan of music you are gonna love his interviews.
He is the like the Billy Hoyle (think Woody Harrelson in White Men Can't Jump) of musical knowledge. He comes into every interview looking like a joke. Then, within seconds, he perplexes, surprises, and seriously impresses his targets with unprecedented musical knowledge. Nardwuar's guerilla style interviews follow a format intended to flabbergast targets by presenting meticulously researched gifts designed to bring up little-known tidbits of a musicians personal and professional past. There really is no better way to explain this than to watch it happen, so I put 4 of his interviews below. The artist's reactions to the unexpected interviewer are priceless. The best part of each is how Nardwuar ends each interview. Awkward, hilarious, and brilliant. Make sure to watch these all the way through.
