Punk rap
Genre of hip hop
Punk rap is hip hop music influenced by the rebellious ethos, and sometimes musical characteristics, of punk rock.[2] The genre has been described as being influenced by styles such as trap music,[3] punk rock,[2] heavy metal[4] and lo-fi music.[4]
One of the earliest proponents of the scene was Odd Future, due to their merging of hip hop and shock humor.[5] In an article for the BBC, journalist Thomas Hobbs referred to the rise of the genre as being a rebellion against the politics of the period, with artists showing disdain for topics such as Brexit, the presidency of Donald Trump and global warming.[5]
