Nerds While AZN (NWA) was originally an idea thrown around as a joke, something that would never fully become a reality. However, thanks to a little ingenuity, a few instrumentals, and two or three microphones, NWA became a reality on September 15, 2004, with the track "NWA Anthem," a song that shocked the hell out of everybody who originally expected something sucky (only to receive something godly). Originally, NWA was planned as starring Jeff King (DMK), Jun Xiang (Jam Master Jun), and an unnamed third party who has since been incarcerated for selling bootleg textbooks (we love you, Zhen). Jeremy Blum (Blummer) ended up taking the reigns as the third member of the group, however, mainly because he was the only one at the time who knew how to put the tracks together. In the end, Nerds While AZN transformed into much more than a simple joke and quickly became a serious undertaking. The group has gone on to release track after track, combining inspirational raps about everyday life with hard-hitting beats, occasionally with guest appearances from anyone who wants to jump in. Nerds While AZN is: DMK (Jeff King) Long regarded as an inspiring example of innate goodness, as well as the originator of the intense "Nerd Pride" revolution of 2003-2004, Jeff King surprised the world by assuming his DMK (Dark Man King) persona for the first NWA track, "NWA Anthem." He has since become widely known for his passionate rapping style (which usually involves yelling himself hoarse over a beat) and powerful, emotional solo songs such as "The Heart's Reality" and "Final Fantasy." Jam Master Jun (Jun Xiang) Originally reluctant to join the group (because he thought he was too cool or something) Jun changed his mind after "NWA Anthem" came out. Making his first appearance on the "Match The Nerds With The Voice" track, Jun brought with him influence from famous mainstream emcees as well as a distinct rapping voice, often considered to be a bridge between DMK's yelling and Blummer's softer style. Aside from writing good hooks, Jun has also been the star of many of the most popular tracks in NWA history. Blummer (Jeremy Blum) JB is one of the originators of the Nerds While AZN concept, the third member of the group, and the resident producer of almost every NWA track (he basically does a lot of stuff). He has become known for his soft yet distinct rapping style which often utilizes multiple bars ending with the same rhyme. As the group producer, Blummer loops instrumentals and edits vocals to create the unique NWA sound. He also maintains the NWA website and has gone on to produce three solo mixtapes of his own: "Gaiden," "Bushido," and "Densetsu." So that's NWA. And yes, we know we aren't the first group to use that acronym--this originally started out as a joke, remember? Anyway, if you didn't know who we were before, now you do.

Lyrics
Nerds While AZN - Redemption (chorus - Blummer) yo, it's redemption deliverance from the past deliverance from the sin that will not last deliverance from all that's come before it's a rebirth the nerds have returned for more (Blummer) descending from the sky, we return like the gods of the ancient world, lords of the heavenly above we're back again, homes, we're back in the game hear the trumpets blare out our triumphant refrain we've mastered skills and pondered the past defeated demons, sailed forth on a blazing mast across the seas of time, we've grown so strong matured and metamorphisized, you can hear it in our song we've moved on past the tears that we shed and stitched up old wounds that once all bled in our growth we've left old things behind the future is now all we envision in our minds focused, hungry, and biting like a whip three mics are encased in our iron grips don't crouch down in fear under this attack just watch yourself, 'cause the team is back (chorus x2 - Blummer) (DMK) Sydney Carton's dead, so is true redemption from birth to his death, his soul deserves mention the life we've lead, hardly worth extension we're left with eyes red, hearts of spongy retention for ingrained pains that stain humane brains insane but given that we've risen out of bed today we listen to street wisdom to delay decay fit missin’ morals in broken schisms of our game to be redeemed? what does it mean? beyond starting squeaky clean with another CD it means the nerds are back, resurrected at last pass the mashed potatoes please, it's time to end the fast the chaste cast of the past has amassed at last raise the mast, drop the contrast, we've surpassed Ghandi's 21 days, yes sir, we've starved longer but like the great martyr, we've only grown stronger (chorus x2 - Blummer) (Jam Master Jun) they said we were forgotten has-beens who never had too much skill at rappin' so we trained, came back, did our laps and ran back to the game so quit your laughin' we're older and smarter and better than before but check this, we still struggle to the core we're down two sets, but we'll even up the score world tour, both shores, we got so much more in store the mistakes that we've made, we put that behind us meditate on the past so it might remind us of travails we faced while we tried to find us but we'll never forget all the ties that bind us now we three ivy G's be hot even 50 Cent's scared of all the game that we got battle scars from all the suckers at Harvard we fought screw them, you know we the number one spot (chorus x2)
