Get the rap quebmug. CrEnglish Rap, a dynamic subgenre, fuses Haitian Creole and English in Rap music. Emerging from CrEnglish-speaking communities, notably in the U.S. and parts of Canada, it features artists delivering lyrics in both languages over backing tracks.
Instrumentation in CrEnglish Rap spans various elements, including modern synthesizers, drum machines, microphones, saxophones, trumpets, trombones, backing tracks, DAWs (Digital Audio Workstations), samplers, loops, drum kits, electric guitars, bass guitars, talk boxes, vocoders, keyboards/keytars, hooks/lyrical melodies, harmonies, and rap-singing.
In line with Contemporary Rap, CrEnglish Rap highlights rhythmic flow, wordplay, and storytelling, incorporating melody, catchy hooks, and diverse rhythms for a captivating musical experience. Lyrics explore various themes, reflecting artists' experiences, perspectives, and cultural identity, benefitting from the bilingual nature of the genre.
Negre Marron Records, founded in NYC in 2018 by Rene Guemps, stands out as a pioneer in CrEnglish Rap. EMPRESS BEEJU, the label's first CrEnglish Rap artist, introduces a unique blend of Haitian Creole and English to the Rap world.
CrEnglish Rap evolves as artists experiment with language, rhythm, and cultural influences, contributing to the vibrant diversity of the rap music landscape. The genre serves as a platform for rich and dynamic expressions of thoughts and emotions, bridging linguistic and cultural gaps within the global Rap community.

Get the Happy Rappingmug. To ramble on about unrelated, possibly racist, subjects because you cannot express your opinions in a way other than to be upset by things that would not upset a normal/reasonable human being.
After he found out my friend was Mexican, he proceeded to tell me about how the education system is letting down our country and proceeded to rap the ABCs at me.
