    Love the Podcast, but the Audio Needs Work
    Been listening to you guys for a while, love the show! Only minor gripe is that it’s very hard for me to hear you guys sometimes, even with volume all the way up. Keep up the good work though!
  • DanceMaster (Master of Dance)
    Great podcast but can’t hear it…
    I’m a middle aged man whose been listening to hip hop too loudly for over 30 years. Please turn up the audio. Sometimes it’s so low I can’t even listen to the episode. Besides that, I really do love the podcast. I just wish I could hear it better.
  • aggressive progressive
    Very Solid Hip Hop Podcast
    The guys can come off a bit pedantic and snobbish at times but their hearts are in the right place. Their love and respect for the culture is unquestionable. Would love to see a spin-off show dedicated to Billy woods.
  • D0cHuck1eberry
    Digging, scratching and (sometimes) skipping
    This show scratches an itch for me. I don’t live in a place with a lot of hip hop heads and, if I do meet someone to geek out a bit with, their knowledge doesn’t usually doesn’t go beyond the top crust of the underground. DBRP digs deep and I’m always finding new treasure. Plus they’re just smart funny guys whose knowledge and commentary extends beyond hip hop and I’m here for it… except the basketball talk, when the ⏩️ button gets mashed. So long and thanks for all the puns!
  • ProsNcoNsDon
    Dope podcast
    These guys shine a podcast on a lot of great new artists as well as golden era heads many may have missed!! Peace and love
  • hiphopisalivefm
    The gosh darn daddy’s of rap podcasts
    I always enjoy the audible companionship of these fellow socially calibrated rap nerd types in my age bracket. Whether it’s the banter or excellent interviews I love the show. The boys keep me checking out recommendations and hearing artists I dig or wasn’t very familiar with give insights to their process’ and takes.

    Nate is the know-it-all who actually knows it all. Demone is the practitioner, the realist, and conversational contrarian. Dave is the humble scholar whose presence grounds us all. The three man weave and the three men we’ve come to endlessly appreciate. They have genuinely taught me almost everything I know about hip hop. ⭐️✨🌠💫🌟

    Fine podcast from 3 genuine hip hop fans (although I’d maybe argue one of them tends to stand out as less of a fan lol). My main critique would be they tend to avoid to say anything negative about the music from guests that come on the show - trading honesty for access if you will. I mean you can’t love every album can you?! Ha Also , some sound issues at times.
  • ZJS3000
    Great show
    Great interview subjects and entertaining repartee.
  • existenzkampf
    Chemistry Set
    This is a super trifecta of writers, fans, industry professionals, and everything inbetween. If one is out for a show, or unavailable for the interview, you're still gonna get a good show and chat. Lots of episodes mean that you can find the artists you know first, then start digging in to other shows with those you may not know but want to. It's a living reference guide for more underground and obscure hip-hop ongoing, and especially so.
  • DJ Ian Head
    Essential listening
    The interviews are fun but some of the best parts of this podcast are the banter between the three hosts, who all have unique perspectives on hip-hop, politics, and life and are genuinely passionate and knowledgable about hip-hop culture and music.
  • Paulysses
    5 Stars High and Rising
    Definitely one of the best hip hop podcasts out there. Great conversations and deep dives, and the interviews are on point. Plus, the guys have a good sense of humor and a undeniable passion for the music. It always brightens my week when I see a new episode drop.
  • Sam Kindall
    Backpackers Unite
    This holds a special pace in my heart. Love the hosts, guests and thier music
  • Okoknoway
    For heads...
    Deep dives and intricate, relatable, and geek out... easy 5 star if sound wasn’t so ruff at times.

    Great Podcast for Hip Hop Heads
    Great podcast for hip hop heads. Lots of nerdiness (in a good way) about the music we love. I’m not into all the music they’re into but it’s clear that the hosts are informed and genuine fans.
  • mary ann appigney
    Back hip hop podcast cool
    Amazing dope fresh host be myself dope unique
  • smythspinitch
    EXCELLENT
    Such a dope pod... very engaging, fun debates about the oft-neglected artists making innovative pushes in the art form. Great interviews and they ask the questions that you (the nerds of all nerds) want to hear 👏huge fan and hope to be on it one day. Salute to Dem (dope emcee too), Nate and David!
  • Ostermiljr15
    Dope podcast
    Well spoken guys, they know their hip hop both current and history. Great variety of guests from rappers to producers to writers to collectors etc . I've learned of several artist through them that I wouldn't have listened to. Also, they are active and respond on Twitter.
  • jelani dapo
    Important
    One of the most necessary shows out there
  • Matt Meinen
    Feels like the combat jack show!
    Just tuned into my first episode with the Tree interview. You guys got that good rap talk. Gives me the feeling I’ve been missing since combat jack. Looking at the music critically, but remembering to enjoy it first.
  • mat976
    Just what I’m looking for!
    Awesome show, great guests... wish the audio was better, I have to turn it up more than other pods... also I wish it were longer!!!! Sometimes goes to fast!
  • Ben Edge
    Rappety rap sheeet
    Three guys who offer fresh perspectives on all things Hip-Hop, and have great guests. Always a fun listen.
  • MDPryles
    If you love hip-hop, you’ll love this.
    Love listening to these guys every week. All three of them are basically hip-hop encyclopedias, but they’re also funny and relatable. I’ve learned about a ton of great music, both new and classic, from this podcast.
  • vendORdie
    Smart & Funny!
    Intelligent talk about an intelligent art form. Great weekly listen!
  • tetmomre
    So glad this exists
    DBRP fills a huge gap in the hip-hop podcast scene, especially for those of us who grew up on '90s backpack rap. The hosts are intelligent and knowledgeable without coming across as obnoxious, and their banter and chemistry make for an entertaining listen even when they stray from talking about rap. Pretty funny dudes. The only thing I'd wish for is better sound quality on some of those phone conversations. Hope this show's around for a long time.
