You’ve Been Tricked: Mumble Rap is Still Alive

To a lot of people, "mumble rap" fell off back in 2018/2019. But, that doesn’t mean that the concept of “mumble rap” is over. Because in reality, it’s alive and flourishing more than ever. The thing is that nowadays, we're just desensitized to it to the point that we didn’t realize it’s still here.

The idea of mumble rapper to me is an oxymoron. The MC had the ability to spit a rhyme that big up their DJ. That evolved to the rapper having the ability to spit a rhyme about whatever. But a mumble rapper mumbles their bars, but it's melodic and on beat, so you don't pay attention to it. At that point, you're not even rapping your just mumbling words over a beat, and your producer is making sonicly nice. And I'm saying this as someone who use to hate mumble rap lol a part of me still does but I can listen to Die Lit but Carti and early Uzi and bump my head to it. But I won't deny that mumble rap has definitely muddy the water of rap which is crazy because all the big major mumble rapper claimed Lil Wayne was their biggest rap inspiration. Wayne is one of the best lyricists ever, so its crazy how mumble rappers only took surface level Wayne and didn't actually study his bars, but that's my opinion on mumble rappers.

probably, there's a big generational divide where older people above 30 hate the new generation agreed on the last part. they act like rapping fast with bad beat selection, laz concepts, and fake "conscious" bars is something new and that's why I hate it so much, the purist gate-keeping 'real hip hop/rap' attitude of the lyrical spiritual rappers doesn't help either, it's so offputting. to me, they seem like old men yelling at clouds talking about back in the day, bro its 2024 stop living in the past

People used to say "Rap was only cool in the 90's" But that changed when XXXtentacion and others like him emerged. Don't get me wrong, I think hiphop is still cool now. It's almost cooler now than it was in 2015. And people get mad about the lack of articulate lyrics. But I argue that they don't need it. Modern rap is like hip-hop noise. It's a sound. It's like punk rock. Some punk rock songs are just people screaming and it's cool because it is a certain noise...kind of like Jazz too.

And the common trend of these last 2 years is that music have fallen off. We were in a music boom during 2013-2019 believe it or not. I used to have to make a new Playlist every year, but now I'm lucky if I get 5 new songs that I enjoy in a year.😂 I haven't had to make a new Playlist in 4 years.

I dont like alot of these peoples music but that guy acting like rappers everyone respects and loves like lil wayne or eminem dont say shit thats just as dumb as "you think you the shit you aint even the fart " Is crazy cuz they definitely do I will say that though I don't understand how playboy Carty got famous cause his music is actually just trash.

[@rethabilemoloi3490]

Damn Mumble Rap is the worst thing too happen to Hip hop 😖🚮

[@Toastfacekillah87]

Looking back, mumble rap was a necessary era in hip-hop. Though i hated most of the music (im a straight up old head), and the antics of the rappers reflect poorly on the culture as a whole... it shook things up, ruffled a few feathers and got a new generation into hip-hop.

[@officialfumofeltingchannel1490]

Tbf, Ice Spice and Sexy Redd are definitely trash

[@saintkevinofficial]

like Carti and Ken Carson and Yeat and should I go on?...You guys love picking on the Women. I can smell the misogyny from a mile away. Y'all never have the same energy for these coked up, drugged out, sloth mouthed rappers who talk about peak degenerate shit and nothing meaningful or progressive. These guys are the hallmark of my generation. It really says a lot.

[@tommystrickland6268]

The only thing that I didn't like about true mumble rappers is that I always felt like mumbling through songs the way that they did was not good for an entire career of songs, but better used as an aesthetic for 1 or 2 songs where you are trying to portray a more drowsy Drugged up feel Or even just a boozy intoxicated feeling to it but because So many rappers did it as just their baseline style at kind of ruined being able to do that aesthetically

[@PARKER6662]

RAGE RAP is needed get it out of your system then move on instead of bringing it to the streets - like Hardcore music and metal from the 1980s

You mean was, the last 2 years have been a regression to unlistenable and terrible beats. I'm only talking about the new artists. It's so bad that the female rappers are carrying the new gen.😅

I’ll just put it like this, is it still here? Absolutely. It’s just no longer Main Stream. So you can still argue that is has died. You had the mumble rap and happy bubble gum trap were around the same time. Gangsta Rap made a brief comeback between 2018-2021 and nowadays Drill is the top sub-genre of hip hop. That’s just me. 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@GoogleAccount-kw1mz]

I think it won’t matter in 10 years with ai. People probably be able to record their own voices and use that as an ai voice changer thing ya know? Like: ‘hey Alexa, create a song for me that is about my cat Lexington’ As well as people uploading their own music that they’ve created (not necessarily musicians). Like for example - the ai covers or songs of popular influencers. It’s gonna be that; but personal.

[@Beezle66]

Remember when people said "mumble rap" was gonna die out in a few years? Well its been almost 10 with no plans of stopping 😂

[@kqsystemzrecordings]

Hip Hop is no longer the voice of the Black Man. The Fans are different, the artists are different. I honestly believe after Drake, Cole and Kendrick, Hip Hop will fall off.

Mumblers spit words that mostly illegal, emcees spit rhymes to uplift their people. Peace, love unity, having fun these are the lyrics of KRS-ONE

Mumble rap is not an old head term LOL. It's simply a term used to describe rappers that have no real lyrical content or anything worthwhile to say.

[@kingklassic3522]

I think if people understand American black culture then they should understand the music. We have all types of people in our culture. We are not a monolith so the music should reflect that as well. I do feel see that they push the lowest to the top but they do that in society as well. They want fun and on the outside looking in, it looks bad so idk

[@user-uc9ne8ow2u]

Bru nobody in the hood like these songs even nyc drill I live in NY we saw it more of a dance thing for the kids lotta these melodic rappers mostly teenage girls listen to mostly so they have something fun to dance to or vibe but they soon forget the artist after one hit my point being nobody really take these artist serious not even there suburban highschool fan base those kids look at it like a trendy clothing brand of the year to fit in school ...my whole point is nobody takes these artist serious its just because they get corporate support they have money to look more popular then they are

[@leo5781]

My problem is people with that “mumble” “trendy” attitude or whatever denounce lyrics and make people who put time into bars and shit look inadequate. They be like “ion here that lyrical shit, too much words etc.” like do what you do it’s fine, but don’t come over here talk shit and all that just cuz you can’t do what a ghostface killa can do, or what a Nas can do or what a Conway can do because it’s often the case

[@leo5781]

Like people make lyricists, MCs or whatever feel like shit for actually caring about their fundamentals and to me it’s jarring

[@leo5781]

And while it’s true many “lyricists” or “MCs” can be pretentious but most of the time it’s not even the dope ones it’s some random KZbin rapper that thinks he’s the second coming of Christ

[@gaggs233]

Travis Scott is creative. His music is not for everyone but that doesn’t make him terrible
