The Rap Music Plug Podcast is the remedy to the “I don’t have anything good to listen to” problem.
Through in-depth artist interviews, album reviews, and general rap commentary on the best that the underground rap scene has to offer, this is your one-stop shop to knowing what to add to your queue, play next, or pop into your record player.
Are you a rap music fan? And not just any fan... but a true rap music fan that wants to move past the surface level discussion, and get into the nitty-gritty of what makes rap music so great?
Are you someone who loves the feeling of discovering new music, but find it hard to navigate through the thousands upon thousands of new albums that get released every single day?
If any of this applies to you, this show is EXACTLY what you need.
My absolute PASSION is music.
So I gladly do the dirty work of virtual crate digging, searching for the next great rap album... so you don’t have to.
My name is Rohan. I am The Rap Music Plug, at your service.

By now you should know that I’m a sucker for vulnerability in music. Where the artist opens themselves up, exposing their vices, their love, their sadness and everything in between. So the music of today’s guest, GDP of West Orange, New Jersey was tailor-made for me.
What makes his latest album, Cross Off Matthew, so special, is not only only the sheer quality of it, but the surrounding context, and journey that GDP undertook to get here.
In this episode, we discuss the hardcore punk ethos and artistic background that has distinguished his sound and career path, the significant hiatus he took away from the indie music world, before recharging his batteries with none other than Fatboi Sharif with their 2025 album, ENDOCRINE, and how this all set the stage for an album that’s currently fighting for my #1 Album of the Year slot.
