The Mad Rap Dad
The Toby Gribben Show Highlights - A podcast by Shout Radio
The Mad Rap Dad is the product of unfulfilled ambitions and a whole lot left to say about the world all rolled up into one nifty mid-life crisis. Having run the gamut of the genre spectrum from punk rock to 80s synth-pop, the Mad Rap Dad makes his triumphant return to the rap game after a 20-year hiatus and the tender age of 41. His most recent collective The Pivot Tones, which combines pop-punk with 50s Doo-Wop and a dash of classic hip-hop rekindled his passion for the latter genre which serves as his initial platform into the music industry as a teenager. As a self-proclaimed “responsible adult”, he has decided to narrow his focus onto his solo project, something he believes will be the definitive outfit that he will grow old with. Bitter, jaded and out of touch, The Mad Rap Dad is out to prove to the world that his message is still very relevant. Touching on topics ranging from history, the 80s and 90s pop culture, and self-improvement to finding greys in your beard hair - he is hell-bent on restoring the golden era of rap with his dignity fully intact, and is taking no prisoners along the way.
