SoundCloud rap, also known as mumble rap, is a music genre that originated on the online audio distribution platform SoundCloud.[1] It is characterized for its simple beats, emo moods, and lyrics that range from the braggadocios and nihilistic to sex and drugs.[1]
Media attention
Music critic Jon Caramanica devoted a feature-length article to SoundCloud rap in The New York Times, noting the sub-genre "in the last year has become the most vital and disruptive new movement in hip-hop thanks to rebellious music, volcanic energy and occasional acts of malevolence".[2] Rolling Stone and Complex wrote about the movement,[3][4][further explanation needed] while Spin contrasted the subgenre's popularity with the troubles of SoundCloud the company itself.[5][further explanation needed]
