Episode 173 :: Mouth’s Cradle: The Prince Jellyfish Speaks

Apr 06, 2014, 12:00 AM

In this episode, Cap talks with Kevin (aka Prince Jellyfish, aka Young Crybaby) from Mouth’s Cradle. His new EP, Sakura, takes on genre that few nerd artists have attempted: English language covers of anime themes and j-pop songs.

Last month on Nerdy.FM, we debuted the EP along with a track-by-track interview with Kevin where he shared his favorite anime, j-pop composers, and insight into his inspirations for this rad record. This episode compiles that interview as well as expands it with clips that didn't make it to the streamed version. So hang out with Cap and Kevin as they talk about eccentric pop stars, horror films, Princess Jellyfish, Pokémon, and chronicling the journey of an eclectic rapper’s foray into uncharted nerd music waters.
