about

Twenty-Dirt is a collaborative album between Minneapolis musicians: rapper Ryan Kopperud and alt-rock band The van Gobots. Rock, but not rock music; hip-hop but not hip-hop music, Twenty-Dirt is the product of two distinct styles, weaved together, to create an equally intricate and laid back vibe.

The van Gobots’ post-punk influences and song writing tenure, combined with Homeless’s history in the spectrum of both rap music and poetry, unite to deliver emotive guitars, tight rhythms, and incisive lyrics.

“Sounding like a mix between Slug, Mr J. Medeiros, and Brother Ali, he cuts right to the core of underground hip-hop... We need more true artists like [Ryan Kopperud].”
Hummingbeat

"[The] van Gobots firmly establishes itself among the Twin Cities’ most satisfying, ear-pummeling acts — the kind of pugilistic, politicized post-punk that hopefully never goes out of style."
Onion AV Club Twin Cities
