In a trailblazing initiative, Radio Hall of Famer, Sway Calloway, and esteemed music television producer, Esteban Serrano, are joining forces to launch the Rap Dads Podcast on the Sway’s Universe platform. This innovative project aims to shift the narrative of Black fathers and hip-hop culture, showcasing the pivotal role of rappers as fathers.
Not your typical podcast, Rap Dads is going mobile, capturing raw and authentic stories straight from the artists, thanks to a state-of-the-art Sprinter Van transformed into a rolling podcast studio. This unique setup will meet artists where they are, bringing the conversations to life in diverse locations.
Hosted on Sway’s Universe, a multi-platform space with over 2 million YouTube subscribers, the series will be released in a variety of formats. Listeners can enjoy the long-form audio podcast across all major streaming services, while fans can delve deeper with a TV adaptation on YouTube. Bite-sized clips will also be shared across all major social media platforms for those seeking impactful moments on the go.
This groundbreaking series is set to redefine our understanding of hip-hop culture and Black fatherhood. “By capturing these intimate conversations on the move, we aim to celebrate the diverse stories that shape the lives of our favorite artists and challenge prevailing stereotypes,” says Serrano, a seasoned music television producer with over two decades of experience.
