Early and personal life

Career

Adult Swim

Ward has appeared on, worked behind the scenes on, and contributed original lyrics to, many Williams Street Studios shows on Adult Swim, most notably Aqua Teen Hunger Force. He was a production assistant and starred as the character MC Pee Pants in the episodes "MC Pee Pants", "Sir Loin", "The Last One", and "Little Brittle",[6] and as the young Carl in episode 18.[7] He reprised the role of MC Pee Pants in Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters and in the PlayStation 2 video game Aqua Teen Hunger Force Zombie Ninja Pro-Am.

Ward worked on Sealab 2021, as a writer and as the recurring character Hesh Hepplewhite, and as the twins who play Dolphin Boy in a behind-the-scenes type of episode. He worked as a production assistant and writer for The Brak Show (including the episodes "Brakstreet" and "Shadows of Heat") and voiced a character on the episode "Brakstreet". He was a contributing writer for Space Ghost: Coast to Coast with a cameo in the episode "Baffler Meal", and voiced Ward Willoughby in the 2002 pilot for Welcome to Eltingville.

In October 2004, he announced his resignation from Cartoon Network on his blog[8] to focus on his recording career. He returned to Adult Swim as a red Gummi bear named Gummi in Cheyenne Cinnamon and the Fantabulous Unicorn of Sugar Town Candy Fudge.[9] He has worked on a cartoon called The mc chris Cartoon, and plans to work in conjunction with the creators of Metalocalypse, although it will not air on Cartoon Network.[10][11] Since August 2010, he has created the theme songs for several of the SModcast Internet Radio (S.I.R.) programs, including those for the original SModcast, [Blow Hard,[12] Bagged & Boarded, and Jay & Silent Bob Get Old.

Nerdcore

Ward originally performed with The Lee Majors. While he is one of the artists most closely associated with the genre of nerdcore, he had been hesitant to accept the nerdcore label and described his music as "a genre in and of itself".[13] as well as expressing concern over limiting himself to such a narrow audience and subject matter.[14][15] He has appeared in news stories dealing with nerd culture and nerdcore.[16] Of his nerdcore background, he said, "It's nice that a lot of folks consider me part of it. It's actually embarrassing how I used to think I was the only one playing with Star Wars toys and making music, and it just wasn't true. I have absolutely no problem with the label now."[17] He self-releases with no record label.

In 2012, Ward told security guards to eject a fan from the audience at his show in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for posting a critical comment on Twitter about Ward's opening act, Richie Branson. After receiving criticism from fans for the incident, Ward apologized in an online video. The fan received a refund, but complained on Reddit that he was humiliated by the experience.[18]
