Mudkids

In 2026, the Indianapolis hip-hop group, Mudkids, reunited to play a one-of-a-kind set for WFYI’s Small Studio Sessions. Formed in 1997, the unique beats of Tyler Knapp (DJ Elp-Mass) and the conscious lyricism of Rusty Redenbacher ushered in a new era of hip-hop in Indiana. This exciting set features classic Mudkids and a new song by Redenbacher’s new project “Rusty Redenbacher is Nasty Slim.”
