From Boom Bap to Trap was successfully funded on Kickstarter, raising over $28,000 for the project.

The Kickstarter project was featured on Vibe, Hypebeast, Weekly Rap Gods, The Vinyl Factory, DJ Magazine, and more. Additional press inquiries came in after the conclusion of the campaign. This early exposure provides a foundation, and a story, for press around the title's release.

Hip-hop producers have never had a book dedicated to them, and the closest comp is The Rap Yearbook (9781419718182), which sold over 120,000 copies.
