'''RapMonster''', alternatively '''RapM''', is a ''[[Melee]]'' {{SSBM|Luigi}} player from [[Maryland-Virginia|Virginia]]. He rarely competed offline prior to 2025, though he found some success in his region, eventually ranking 2nd on the Spring/Summer 2024 [[MD/VA Power Rankings]]. As such, he was considered a hidden boss during this time, with respectable performances at {{Trn|Supernova}} events and winning [https://www.start.gg/tournament/xanadu-legends-the-last-hurrah/details Xanadu Legends - The Last Hurrah] over {{Sm|Hax}}. He eventually broke out onto the scene in 2025, with several strong regional performances such as placing 9th at {{Trn|CEO 2025}}, before finding a proper breakout event at {{Trn|Get On My Level: Forever}}, where he placed 9th after defeating {{Sm|Krudo}}, {{Sm|SluG}}, {{Sm|Mot$}}, and {{Sm|Preeminent}}. Later in the year, he placed 13th at {{Trn|Supernova 2025}}, scoring another upset on Krudo, the largest ''Melee'' tournament of all time prior to disqualifications, made solid performances at {{Trn|Riptide 2025}}, {{Trn|FAST FALL$ 2025}}, and winning {{Trn|No Jawns 5}} over Krudo and {{Sm|Chem}}. These strong performances led to his debut at 28th on [[SSBMRank 2025]], the highest ranking among any Luigi player.

After defeating Zain in an exhibition match at [https://www.start.gg/tournament/the-cashbox-3/details The Cashbox 3], RapMonster called out Zain for not voting for him for {{Trn|Nounsvitational Tokyo 2025}}. This call-out eventually led to a feud between the players in 2026, during which RapMonster defeated Zain in another exhibition at {{Trn|Bair Necessities}} and in a tournament set at {{Trn|GENESIS X3}}. 

RapMonster has also made a notable impact in ''[[Project+]]'', and to a lesser extent ''[[Ultimate]]'', both in which he also plays [[Luigi]]. In ''Project+'', his achievements include winning the major {{Trn|Blacklisted 9: Blacklisted Forever}}, winning {{Trn|Big Ohio Tournament}}, and placing 3rd at {{Trn|Deep Space Tussle}}, where he defeated {{Sm|Ryzuul}}.
