You miss the days when music told real stories? When every bar hit deep and every track felt like therapy ? Well this episode is for you.
In this nostalgic yet powerful conversation, Quia sits down with rising Philly artist NP55, whose emotional, story-driven “pain songs” are bringing real rap back to the culture. We dive into how he turned childhood memories, personal loss, and his North Philly roots into a viral, purpose-filled music brand.
From his first basketball jersey to his breakout single “19120,” NP55 shares the mindset, message, and moves behind his journey as an independent artist.
Whether you’re an aspiring rapper, podcaster, or creative entrepreneur, this episode is packed with game, heart, and legacy energy.
