BIOGRAPHY
Hailing from Detroit but raised by the internet, alt-rapper Rob Apollo is a celebration of shenanigans. After gaining national recognition for his 2019 album, “Whore,” Apollo became known for his provocative lyrics and chaotic attitude. His music explores youthful debauchery, often through humorous and outlandish songwriting, but socially progressive undertones and themes of escapism keeps the music vulnerable and reflective of his diverse background. Influenced equally by his Detroit upbringing, art-school education, and radical politics, Apollo seamlessly bridges rap, indie, and internet culture. Apollo's main influences are other boundary-pushing, alt-rap artists such as Father, Rico Nasty, ZelooperZ, Tisakorean, and Danny Brown.
