Dope has a very specific meaning when it comes to music, it is a specific style of music which is often delayed and off beat in the vocals, rhythm or sampling. A style featured in some hip hop music but certainly not all hip hop and not specific to hip hop. A combination of elements that gives a track an overall dope feel. Can be hard to define and the word "dope" is often thrown around in a similar way to "phat" when in fact the music in not in fact dope or phat at all. The rapper "scarface" is the definition of dope when it comes to rap vocal, his style is off beat in rhythm and flow with the use of lags, delay and emphasis/exageration on rhyming words/sounds and delay/lag between words. "B-Real" of Cypress Hill is also a good example of a "dope" rapper. All rappers certainly are not dope.
Dope= ERYKAH BADU "Vibrate on"
Dope= SCARFACE "No warning"
Dope= GETO BOYS "I don't f- with you"
Dope= CYPRESS HILL "I wanna get high"
Dope= NOTORIOUS BIG "Hypnotize"
Dope= REDMAN "Rite now"
