Quibble Jam 2025

Author: Dad Bod Rap Pod December 31, 2025 Duration: 2:05:40
The wait is over! The best fake hip-hop awards show on the internet is finally here. 2025 was an incredible year for rap music, from the Clipse’s omnipresent comeback to woods and August Fanon cooking up one of the most interesting remix records in recent memory. The year of our lord 2025 truly had a little something for everybody, and we do our best to rank and rate it all in this year’s edition of Quibble Jam. We break down categories like Best New Voice, Best Rapper Alive, Best Producer, Song of the Year, and Album of the Year. We also spend some time at the top of the episode talking about the Nas and Preemo Light Years record, as well as De La Soul’s Cabin in the Year. Happy New Year yall! DEM ONE produced this episode. That's DJ CUTSO and DEM ONE on the theme song. Dad Bod Rap Pod is a proud member of the Stony Island Audio Network.

The conversation flows from three distinct but deeply connected perspectives on Dad Bod Rap Pod. Hosted by rapper Demone Carter (DEM ONE), music writer David Ma, and record collector Nate LeBlanc, this podcast digs into the culture with a rare combination of insider knowledge, critical analysis, and archival passion. Their discussions are less about hot takes and more about substantive, respectful dialogue with the artists, producers, and behind-the-scenes figures who have shaped the genre. You'll hear interviews that feel like conversations among peers, often uncovering lesser-known stories and appreciating the craft from multiple angles. As part of the Stony Island Audio network, the show is built on a foundation of genuine fandom and expertise. Listening to this podcast means getting a rounded, thoughtful examination of hip-hop's legacy and its current evolution, all filtered through the experiences of three dedicated enthusiasts who happen to have great chemistry. It’s for anyone who wants to move beyond the surface and into the deeper layers of the music.
