Mega Ran aka Random is an unstoppable force in the Chip-Hop and Nerdcore world. A former teacher and current world-hopping rapper, he cut his teeth rapping over old Capcom game soundtracks, which got him the approval of Capcom and a strong reputation as one of the best nerdy emcees out there. We talked with Mega Ran over Skype about his recent trip to Vegas to party with WWE and Cleveland Cavaliers stars, his unfortunate incident of having gear stolen in Oakland, and the challenges of leaving teaching to rap full time.
