DBRP 50 Pt.1 (YEAR END SPECIAL)
Nate, DEM, and Dave go full listicle and breakdown the 50 songs that personify Dad Bod Rap Pod
With this being the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop and all the bros figured it was time to put together a Top 50 list of some sort. In lieu of talking about the same amazing but over-discussed rap songs/albums they thought it would be cool to list the top 50 songs that make up the DBRP aesthetic. Because 6th years in Dad Bod Rap Pod has become a staple podcast with fans of a certain age and sensibility. This part one of two part jammy jam. Happy 50th to Hip Hop and long live Dad Bod Rap Pod!

but when it come to nights like this....
To conclude the 93' Retro series the bros talk about arguably the most perfect rap album of all-time A Tribe Called Quest's Midnight Marauders.

DBRP RETRO: NO NEED FOR ALARM
Nate, Dave, and DEM talk about Del The Funky Homo sapien's No Need For Alarm
This is a dedication to you wack emcees......
Del's second album, No Need For Alarm, was a departure of sorts from his debut LP, I Wish My Brother George Was Here. Eschewing the Ice Cube/George Clinton funk aesthetic, Del went deep into his backpack and pulled a record for the ages. The head of the Hiero Voltron launched a full-scale attack on inferior rappers over raw no-nonsense beats. This week, the bros reflect fondly on an album that lives in their collective DNA.Ā

DBRP RETRO: Aquemini
Nate, Dave, DEM, and guest Fat Tony talk about Outkast's Aquemini
Outkast is perhaps Hip Hop's closest corollary to the Beatles. Their musical journey, commercial success, and geographic origins (the south got something to say) make them a one-of-one rap group.

Joining the dad bods on the b side of the episode is Fat Tony who shares how this album was huge influence on his artistic development.

Wu Tang Aint Nuthin' to Fuck It!
Have a song ever had truer title!? 30 years after its release Wu Tang Clan's Enter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers) remains a musical achievement without parallel. The 9 man rap cartel ripped a hole in the fabric of Hip Hop space-time and delivered a masterpiece. Eschewing the polished rap sound for something more guttural and dangerous. In this episode Nate, Dave, DEM, and special guest DJ Cutso talk about when they first heard the Wu Tang and their favorite jams off the album. Part 1 of a two part WU banger.

DBRP RETRO: Doggystyle
Nate, Dave, and DEM talk about Snoop's debut album Doggystyle
If you weren't outside then, it's difficult to comprehend how highly anticipated Snoop Dog's first album was. In the era before the internet, the buzz surroundingĀ DoggystyleĀ could have powered a major metropolitan area. The Dr. Dre industrial complex had already delivered The Chronic a year earlier, so there was a notion that with rookie of the year from Long Beach in tow, Doggystyle would be one for the ages. Now, with 30 years of hindsight, we ask the following question: Is this a timeless record or a record of its time?Ā
Episode 279.5-We Talk Diabetic Test Strips
Nate, Dave, and Demone talk about the Armand Hammer's new album
Rather be co-dependent than co-defendants....
Armand Hammer's ascent to critical acclaim has neatly paralleled with the existence of this podcast. There is no causation of course but it has been fun to watch woods and E L U C I D's come up in real time. We have also had the privilege of talking to both artists during our 5+ year run. On this special mini-episode of DBRP the bros share their takes on Armand Hammer's new album We Buy Diabetic Test Strips.
