PROF

With lyrical skill matched only by his raucous live shows, Prof has cemented his place on the national stage. Hailing from Minneapolis, Minnesota, Prof has perfected the art of combining blue collar hard work and unimpeachable content while never taking himself too seriously. His eight studio album, GOOD TIME BOY, due out on his own imprint Stophouse Music Group on June 26th, 2026, is poised to let the world at large in on a secret that music fans already know, Prof is a force to be reckoned with. His last LP ‘Horse’ shocked pundits and the industry alike with an amazing run through the charts and streaming platforms. Released in April of 2023, Horse reached a career-high on the Billboard charts ranking as the #2 Current Rap Album, #1 Heatseekers Album, #1 Emerging Artist Album, #8 Top Billboard Album, and #17 Independent Album the week of its release.GOOD TIME BOY is the culmination of Prof’s personal Rocky training montage, but you can’t call it a comeback, because Prof’s numbers have only ever gone up. GOOD TIME BOY is a powerful record, showcasing his singular drive and the weirdness of real life that has propelled Prof to the pinnacle of the independent rap music world, bringing his legions of “Gampos”, as his fans are affectionately known, alongside him. GOOD TIME BOYS’s 16 tracks include a heavyweight cast of features. From T-Pain’s infectious contribution on “Jewelry Duty”, to That Mexican OT & 2 Chainz gracing “Big Dog”, to a brilliant appearance from Bay area legend E-40 on “Brrrr” – Prof’s contemporaries have clearly noticed the ever growing Gampo movement bursting out of the Twin Cities. Pete & Bas, JonRay, & Sauce Walka also appear on the album, which was produced by Prof alongside a small cadre of close collaborators. Prof will follow up the release of GOOD TIME BOY with a 12 city headline tour fall 2026. The tour hits marquee live music venues like The Armory in Minneapolis, Janus Live in St. Petersburg, and the Factory in St. Louis. Riding life sized carpets over his massive crowds and leaving it all on the stage, Prof’s live shows have always been more than a concert, they are an experience. As the audiences grow and his production evolves, Prof has moved from survival mode to takeover mode, and one thing is for sure, Prof thrives on the biggest stages.
