Madison, Wisconsin artist Trapo is somebody who I have been a fan of for some years now. I first got familiar with Trapo in 2016 when I was put onto him by my older brother Eric, and I instantly was a fan of his unique sound + style. At some point a year or two ago, Trapo abruptly announced that he would be retiring from hip-hop, and he seemingly disappeared for about a year. He was off of social media platforms, a lot of his music was taken off of Soundcloud + other platforms, and plenty of Trapo fans like me were just left, confused. Earlier this summer, Trapo came to Chicago + I invited him to the Lyrical Lemonade headquarters for a brand new interview, his first interview in years.
