The Awkward Case of Hobo Johnson

Описание: After covering Oliver Tree, I remembered another weirdo with weird music—Hobo Johnson! I used to hate "Typical Story" when Spotify force-fed it to me in 2019, but somehow, he won me over. Hobo Johnson (aka Frank Lopes Jr.) is an awkward, chaotic, spoken-word rap enigma who went from living in his car to blowing up with Peach Scone and landing on NPR’s Tiny Desk. His career has been a rollercoaster—indie hustle, viral fame, major label deal, then... complete self-sabotage? In this deep dive, I break down his wild rise to fame, his bizarre (and sometimes baffling) discography, and what he's been up to in 2024. Is he making a comeback? I'll go over the struggles that shaped his music, his rise from underground open mics to worldwide tours, how "Peach Scone" turned him into a viral sensation, the bizarre twists of his career post-2020, and what’s next. If you love chaotic spoken-word rap, underground emo-rap, or just a good music industry deep dive, this one's for you!
