badkidsgoodpeople is a Washington, D.C.-based music producer and DJ known for his distinctive take on phonk. Blending gritty Memphis rap roots with soulful textures and electronic subgenres, his sound fuses hard-hitting 808s, layered samples, and genre-bending creativity. Many first discovered his music through Ryan Celsiusโs Trappin in Japan series, where his tracks stood out for their cinematic feel and rhythmic depth. While phonk remains his foundation, BadKidsGoodPeople draws from drum & bass, city pop, and other underground influences to craft immersive, high-energy sets. His work continues to push the edges of nostalgia and innovation.
Catch him kicking off the night for Headnod 3 Year Anniversary: Villager + Hypho b2b Wraz + Nic Baker at Checkerspot next Friday May 2nd!
