the fitted hats with military rigidity, the maybe-fake earrings so big they seem to have their own gravitational pull. But it wasn\u2019t really the clothing that the New York-born rapper, who has recently revealed himself as one of the underground\u2019s most inventive synthesists, coveted. \u201cIt was more a mentality,\u201d he says, \u201cSomebody that\u2019s not going to fold to the new stuff: \u2018He on some \u201804 s&#8212;.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            Fashion has always been central to hip-hop culture, a vehicle for self-expression and creativity. Where Papo and his friends identified certain outfits as relics from a bygone era, other pieces \u2014 like the iconic PUMA Classic sneakers he\u2019s wearing today \u2014 are staples that evolve with the world around them, a link to the past that points relentlessly forward. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-246120\" class=\"content_block flush header center_align\">\n<div class=\"video-header-bg \" style=\"\">\n<p>      <video class=\"video-header-bg__video\" id=\"custom-header-video\" autoplay=\"autoplay\" loop=\"loop\" muted=\"muted\" poster=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/thefader\/video\/private\/q_70\/Papo_EDITED_s8zwsd.jpg\"><source src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/thefader\/video\/private\/q_70\/Papo_EDITED_s8zwsd.webm\" type=\"video\/webm\"><\/source><source src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/thefader\/video\/private\/q_70\/Papo_EDITED_s8zwsd.mp4\" type=\"video\/mp4\"><\/source><source src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/thefader\/video\/private\/q_70\/Papo_EDITED_s8zwsd.ogv\" type=\"video\/ogg\"><\/source><\/video><\/p>\n<div class=\"video-header-bg__title-wrap\">\n<div class=\"video-header-bg__title-wrap__container\">\n<h1>\n        <\/h1>\n<h2 class=\"deck\"><\/h2>\n<div class=\"credits\">\n        <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div data-react-class=\"AudioToggle\" data-react-props=\"{}\" class=\"video-header-audio-icon\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-244691\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>            It\u2019s with a similar spirit of connecting the past to the present that gave Papo and his close circle of friends and collaborators, including his go-to producer Subjxct 5, their name: the 2oo4 collective. But while Papo\u2019s music often recalls the misanthropic mixtape rap of New York in that period, it also evokes the wild west that was the internet of the early 2010s, in the time before digital streaming platforms, when each click sent you plummeting deeper down a rabbit hole. Remarkably prolific \u2014 he\u2019s released eight full-length projects in the last two years alone \u2014 Papo grinds familiar markers of the past into a new alloy as disorienting as it is magnetic.       <\/p>\n<p>            Papo grew up first in Washington Heights, blocks away from the Harlem that was producing the rap he gravitated toward as an adolescent. Ready to Die, by Bed-Stuy native The Notorious B.I.G., had been something of a big bang for him as a child, but it was post-Y2K Harlemites like Jae Millz and Vado who made hip-hop intoxicating. (His love for that neighborhood\u2019s school of swaggering trash-talk rap wasn\u2019t without discernment, though: \u201cI wasn\u2019t really a Juelz guy,\u201d he says of Juelz Santana, the never-quite heir to Cam\u2019ron\u2019s nursery rhymes-though-a-looking glass throne. \u201cIt was feeling predictable for me \u2014 and I was like, 12.\u201d) As rap music was evolving outside his window, some things remained constant, like the Puma Classics which had completed outfits since their debut in 1968, and later become a go-to for the hip-hop community.<\/p>\n<div class=\"\"

everything,\u201d Papo recalls of the otherwise unknown rappers whose names kept popping up on sites like NahRight and 2DopeBoyz.

The sun goes down and everyone\u2019s in the house. Only the stickup kids is out.\u201d Without Vinylz, Papo was left to comb through blogs on his own. Which he did: he remembers fondly the seemingly endless string of video interviews in which a post-jail Max B dissed his estranged mentor Jim Jones. This was at the time when Max, with his syrup atonality, had become \u201ceverybody\u2019s favorite rapper.\u201d Hip-hop has long been unique for its way to make the most specific, innovative details become flashes of universal recognition. As the genre celebrates its 50th anniversary, timeless looks led by PUMA Classics sneakers have become the stuff of legend \u2014 and fodder for constant rejuvenation and reimagination. <\/p>\n<p>            Fortunately, the sense of isolation that struck Papo upon moving to Elizabeth didn\u2019t last long. He found a network of friends which soon morphed into a cadre of aspiring artists and producers, including Subjxct 5. \u201cI used to make fun of people who tried to rap,\u201d Papo says, \u201cLike: \u2018look at this guy handing out CDs in Times Square.\u2019\u201d But he was enamored with the demos his friends were cutting, and was eventually the one who encouraged them to take the process more seriously. The formless, Fabolous- and Lloyd Banks-indebted punchline raps he had scribbled in math notebooks gave way to the Harlem-adjacent trash-talk that seemed truer to his personality and experience. That refined writing is filtered through a voice that recalls a couple stars of the past \u2014 and one with a particular significance. \u201cI layer my vocals: I\u2019ll do one and then a double, but I want the double to be a little off, like 2Pac or Max B,\u201d he says. \u201cAnd then my voice be kinda raspy, so it gives it some texture.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"content_block flush image\" id=\"content_block-244706\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_1440,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_220,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 220w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_300,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 300w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_400,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 400w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_600,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 600w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_750,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 750w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_840,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 840w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_960,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 960w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_1260,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 1260w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_1800,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 1800w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_2400,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/04082023_PaPo_004_objujj\/a-target-_new-href-https-go-puma-com-thefader-classic-footwear-for-this-shoot-was-provided-by-puma-and-can-be-purchased-at-jd-sports-a.jpg 2400w,\" sizes=\"100vw\" alt=\"FOREVER.CLASSIC: Papo2oo4 has found the sweet spot\"><span class=\"img_caption\"><\/p>\n<p>    <span class=\"caption\"><br \/>\n      <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/go.puma.com\/TheFADER-Classic\">Footwear for this shoot was provided by Puma and can be purchased at JD Sports. <\/a><br \/>\n    <\/span><\/p>\n<p>  <span class=\"credit\"><br \/>\n      \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-244705\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>            Even someone who had never heard that voice could scan Papo\u2019s release names (sample title: Pap on P.E.Ds) and clock him as a massive sports fan. A former basketball obsessive who was born on the same day as Barry Bonds \u2014 \u201cBro, he was too crazy,\u201d he says of the embattled seven-time NL MVP, \u201ceven when he was skinny Bonds\u201d \u2014 Papo dots his raps with references to athletes who were (or were becoming) stars right around that 2004 sweet spot. And yet, as is the case with his music, he doesn\u2019t cling to nostalgia for any one era: he argues that the NBA, with its increased parity and wider distribution of superstars, is better now than it has been in some time. <\/p>\n<p>            To that point, when I ask Papo if he could pick any rapper in any given year to trade verses with on a song, he reaches back not to the W. Bush years, but much further. \u201cOh, Slick Rick\u201d he says. \u201cSlick Rick in \u201888 \u2014 \u2018Mona Lisa\u2019 Slick Rick. That\u2019s the Super Saiyan rapper.\u201d Though this seems, at first, discordant with his major influences, it\u2019s easy on closer examination to see why Papo would feel a kinship to the Ruler, an MC positively dripping in style and seemingly impervious to the trends of the moment.
