Rops1 is an Australian rapper from Macquarie Fields, in Sydney's southwest suburbs. Blending hip-hop, trap, drill and street-rap with lyrics that are both raw and carry personal stories, he appeared on music platforms in 2018 with his first singles, followed two years later by the album Youngest in Charge. In 2021, "No Cap" stood out with its video ranking for seven weeks, reaching number 70. Noticed by Kerser, who invited him to open his concerts on his 2023 tour, Rops released the album Music Saved Me that same year. In 2025, the EPs The Trap, Letter to My Son, Trapsta and Love for My Brothers followed, foreshadowing the release of the album Trench Kid.
