Bryce Case, Jr., otherwise known as YTCracker (pronounced “whitey cracker”), is a rapper, notorious former hacker, and internet entrepreneur.
YTCracker began producing rap music in 1998 in the genre that has since become known as nerdcore hip hop. His early work mainly focused on documenting and amusing the participants of the America Online hacking scene.
In 1999, YTCracker gained notoriety, media coverage, and a hefty restitution bill for defacing the web site of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. (wired news article)
After retiring from the hacking scene, YTCracker has gone on to make a name for himself in the adult web site industry, which warmly embraced his nerd rap music. YTCracker raps have become an integral part of the adult webmaster community. Not only does YTCracker often find himself creating promotional songs for various web sites, he also performs (as both an MC and a DJ) at many industry events. Most notably, he has DJed for a party of thousands at Club Ice in Las Vegas, and performed alongside such rap legends as Xzibit, Cypress Hill, Digital Underground, and Too Short at the infamous Players Ball. YTCracker also received a writing credit (misspelled as “whitey cracker”), for his contribution to PIMPANDHO.COM, a song by famous rapper Too Short on his 2003 album Married to the Game.
YTCracker is a firm believer that music should be free. For the past seven years, he has sporadically released his songs as they’ve been completed. In late 2004, he and rhyming partner phlow released stc is the greatest, a compilation of their works as the duo spamtec.
In May, 2005, YTCracker released NerdRap Entertainment System, (download), a seven song album. Six of the tracks had been previously unreleased. All of the beats on this album are based upon background music from Nintendo Entertainment System games. This album features a little something for every geek, from tributes to Surge, to introspective rhymes about the hardships faced daily by nerds across the globe.
