Who Knew?
You wonderful b*stards! I’ve spent the past 6 years thinking the show was over. Shame on me for not looking for Juan Ep “is life.”

Really only gonna appeal to old heads
I’d rate 5 stars but these guys push Patreon way too hard. They’ll never organically grow in popularity with that approach. Ciph is also dipping his toes a bit too far into the right wing comedy zeitgeist if I’m being honest.

I used to listen and really enjoy this pod and went as far as traveling from Boston to NYC to see them live but Pete’s a hard listen these days. Or for awhile now. Ciph has gotten better and remained humbled, Pete not so much

Cut the Politics Pete
I’ve been a Juan Epsman since the original iteration. Ciph has only gotten better with age and experience, he is now just a better version of himself.. Peter, however, is more obnoxiously than ever. Pete has always been a little bit annoying but it used to have a little
Charm.. I listen to Juan ep for hiphop talk. Pete brings everything back to politics no matter how hard Ciph tries to leave it alone. Pete used to be of the culture but he’s been growing into a crotchety upper west side snobby Jew.. I liked Maryland Wigger Pete much better

Rosenberg Has Become Annoying
I’ve been a Juan Ep fan since 2010 so this isn’t meant to be harsh. That said, Rosenberg is becoming hard to listen to. He over talks and interrupts Cipha and their guests usually to interject an ad lib or poorly timed joke.
It’s ruined a lot of their recent interviews and episodes.
Rosenberg is way too anxious and doesn’t let conversations flow naturally. I’m still a loyal listener and supporter but I hope Rosenberg realizes that him dominating every conversation is a hard listen

Right wing Ciph is Killing the Vibes bro
We don’t care what you think politically, I promise. We all know who you want to win. I’m sure you don’t even vote.

Question?
Why haven’t you guys done a episode about the Kendrick pop out video ? That’s a no brainer

Seriously??!!
Whenever y’all wanna make this a hip hop show again, please let me know. Listening to you recap a Super Bowl halftime that we already saw is a waste of time. I keep downloading each week hoping for a taste of what made me a fan. But this is ridiculous. All y’all do is talk about your feelings and recap the things that happened in the last week, usually NON hip hop related topics. This aint it!

Sneaky big hits
Been a fan since years ago, it’s like sitting next to a couple uncles at a cookout. Expect nothing, you’ll be rewarded nothing.
TV Kills
Good balance
Just enough humor, just enough in-depth questions: it satisfies the funny & the nerdy inside stuff Hip-Hop geeks want to know.

JUAN EP IS LIFE
Been a LOYAL listener since years ago years ago I haven’t missed a episode since. It’s one of the things I look forward to every week. Its literally my favorite podcast even when they’re talking about nothing they’re just a great entertaining duo giving you the realness. After a few road trips my wife even likes JUAN EP now she thinks CIPHA is hilarious. She still doesn’t know I’m a patron though. Hahaha

Two individuals who have demonstrated their love for the art and have a gift for sharing stories and bringing the on the most interesting contributors to the genre.

The O.G.’s Of Hip Hop Podcasting
I have been a fan of Juan Ep since the early days; there are so many gems. My favorite episode is the one they did with Prodigy back in 2011.

“THIS THING THAT WE CALL HIP-HOP”
The Originators. Unparalleled knowledge and wisdom. Amazing guests, incredible stories, and real-life topics. This newest generation is exciting again. Also: on-air experience matters! Mic discipline matters!

Been listening since years ago
Real talk. Cipha Sounds & Peter Rosenberg invented the hiphop podcast which evolved out of their morning show on Hot 97 years ago. But now the show is like 20% hiphop and more just like hanging with your 2 friends that are mad funny, insightful, and entertaining, but they never let you get a word in. So you sit there and listen to them wax poetic about their hang-ups, career goals, neuroses, and failures, while they occasionally name-drop their celebrity friends and dope lives. And it’s cool because you know them since way back and truly happy for them and want to see them shine.
Peter Rosenberg sounds exactly like an old friend from BITD and Cipha looks like my cousin that is both a badman DJ that had THE TUNNEL poppin’ and a comedian that’s quick and witty and he’ll have you rolling. I tell all my peoples to listen and once they do, they come back. All respect due to the mandem, Cipha Sounds and Peter Rosenberg keep pushing, building and adding on. 💣::BOMB DROP:: 💣 ONE

Been a fan from years ago…. Just wish the podcast could get more fanfare and sponsorships that way the fans didn’t have to pay for more content. It’s good to see your friendship evolve as your careers have evolved. Congrats!

Original Hip Hop Podcast
Great everyday banter, with bits and pieces of hip hop, news, and culture. I LIKE TURTLES!
The show in every iteration makes me smile and I am so happy that they are back to being regular!

Life changing
I was broke, and messed up. Once I heard Juan EP I started dressing better and gettin money. I ain’t sayin it’s because of Juan Ep, but I can’t say it’s not. Juan Ep is Life

Last Ep was without question the best episode since the reboot of the show. Real hip hop talk and diving into albums. The random calls always a plus
GrecPhilly
My favorite pod
Love these guys, love the show. I wish they talk more about music that recently dropped and analyze it a bit but not a really a music show.
