Nerdcore has no quit in it. Just ask MC Chris.

The 48-year-old rapper’s last tour was supposed to be his final one, but alas, here he is, back in Tampa, this time 20 years removed from his 2003 album Knowing Is Half the Hassle, which has kind of become a sought-after piece of the catalog since legal issues have prevented it from streaming.

Wife-husband electro-pop duo Crunk Witch open the show along with fellow Nerdcore rapper Swell Rell.

Tickets to see MC Chris play Crowbar in Ybor City on Wednesday, July 17 are still available and start at $17.
