Mainstream Rap Retard: "Dude, Have You Heard The New Soulja Boy Album? It's The Shit!"

Him: "Who?"

Him: "What Are You Talking About?"

"Oh My God Please Throw Away My iPod With All That Other Crap!"

A mumble rapper is a person considered as a rapper. They are pretty much talentless. They rap about fucking women, doing drugs, showing off their money that they really don’t deserve to earn, and they show their grills (Gold teeth) as they shoot their guns. Their so called songs ruin the generation such as relationships. and they all sound the same. They usually have tattoos on their faces. Not to mention, they mostly die in their early 20’s. You also don’t know what they’re saying. No matter how old you are, if you dislike the songs, you’ll be called a boomer. The people who listen to mumble rappers are pretty much degenerated teenagers who smoke or vape in public like in parks or schools. They either talk hood or Ebonics. They don’t know how to keep their relationships regardless of if it’s a male or female. They believe sex and smoking are everything in life.
Person1. What do you think of mumble rappers?
Person 2. Take the cock outta your mouth and speak clearly, young man. Fuck this mumba bla bla bla bla! Speak clearly and let me hear what the fuck you are saying!

Noun or adjective. Used to describe when whites steal black culture, water it down and distort it for a white audience, and then make a billion dollars and change the mainstream with it.
The origin of the term is the 1980 Sugarhill Gang song "Rapper's Delight". Most people think the song was the first success of Hip Hop music. In reality, Rapper's Delight - almost 30 years ago today - was the first time Hip Hop died.
The Sugar Hill Gang was created when the owners of a record label picked up three nobodies who had never worked together and never performed live and manufactured a band from them. The music they made was produced in the absense of almost every defining characteristic of the Hip Hop music that was thriving in the Bronx. The group had no DJ to rhyme over, no rivalry or competition with other crews, and no prospect of concert play or crowds to entertain. The word "rapper" itself was a fabrication by the Sugar Hill Gang: in the Bronx, people who rapped were called MCs because as Masters of Ceremony their job was to move the crowd. The Sugarhill Gang had no such purpose. They moved Hip Hop from the street to the mainstream, from the live to the studio-generated, from the crowd-centric to the rapper-centric, and from the active to the passive. If that wasn't enough, Big Bank Hank, one of the Sugarhill rappers, borrowed his verse on Rapper's Delight from a legendary Cold Crush Crew MC and promised the Crew a record deal in return. Intead, he used the rhymes to make the sham of Rapper's Delight the first breakthrough of Hip Hop to the mainstream and to leave the Cold Crush in the dust.
This is why Jay-Z says:
"I'm over-chargin' niggas for what they did to the Cold Crush
Pay us like you owe us for all the years that you hoed us".
Rapper's Delight killed Hip Hop before it left the Bronx.

A rapper whose songs blow up on tiktok. These rappers are usually one hit wonders and aren't very good.
