🧠 Released in alignment with Mental Health Awareness Month, this conversation delivers truth, hope, and healing for a generation in emotional crisis.


We planned to talk about the rise of demonic imagery in music—but what unfolded was something far deeper.

In this candid and unexpected episode of Under the Rug, Nalini Tranquim sits down with King Topher, founder of Rave Jesus, for a conversation that cuts straight to the heart of today’s cultural crisis.

What begins as an exploration into the dark undercurrents of the music industry soon becomes a vulnerable, spirit-led dialogue on:


  • Teen mental health,
  • Fatherhood,
  • Identity, and
  • The urgent need for hope and healing.


🎙️ Whether you’re a parent, teen, teacher, or youth leader—this episode is your wake-up call.

This is not the conversation we planned—this is the one we needed.
