Drill Rap

Drill is a branch of rap music that can be compared to trap music. Both are about life in the streets, but while trap music is about the trap (hence the name) and the drug dealing side of things, drill music is about the violent side of the streets. Drill is aggressive, dark, violent, and about guns and shootings. It's called drill music because the term "drill" refers to killing, doing a hit, or retaliating. For example, if someone says, "We doin a drill" it means someone bouta get shot up. These aggressive themes are evident in music videos. Drill rap originated in the South Side of Chicago in the early 2010s, and was made popular by Chief Keef, Lil Reese, Lil Durk, and others. New York is another drill hub in the US. Brooklyn and UK drill emerged in the mid 2010s. Many Brooklyn drill rappers use UK drill beats. Some popular Brooklyn rappers are Bobby Shmurda, Sheff G, Sleepy Hollow, and 22Gz. Pop Smoke, who also rapped over drill beats, is arguably the most popular from this region. UK drill originated in the South London district of Brixton, and their wicked beats are used around the globe.
-Many drill songs are diss songs between gang sets. In Chicago, drill music fueled the GD/ BD beef as members dissed dead opps in their songs. One notable song from this area is the Computers Remix by Wooski, who dissed like 10 dead people in the song and later survived a gunshot wound to the head while at a friends funeral. In Brooklyn, Sheff G. and 22Gz have dissed each other back and forth with their songs Suburban + Suburban pt2, and No Suburban + No Suburban pt2.

-You probably don't want your mother to catch you listening to drill rap.
-Be careful where you blast drill music, unless you're ok with your car becoming your coffin.

zelda rap

The Zelda rap is in the very first Legend of Zelda commercial from the 80's. It features two stupid kids who can't act. One of them pulls out his Nintendo Newsletter and shows the other some screenshots of the 'new' Zelda game. All of a sudden one of them pull out what might be a bootleg copy of the game, and puts it into his NES. For some unknown reason, the two start an inpromptu rap song, which goes as follows:

"It's The Legend of Zelda and it's really rad!
Those creatures from Ganon are pretty bad!
Octoroks, tektites and leevers too,
But with your help, our hero pulls through!
Yeah, Go Link, Yeah, Get Zelda!
Wikki Wikki Wick!"

The commercial then cuts to the announcer, who says that your parents need to help you hook up the NES.
When I saw this commercial and heard the Zelda rap, I was both horrified and amused at the same time.

An arm motion executed in time with the beat while performing or listening to rap music. The move is similar to the standard "fake jacking off" motion, however, one or more fingers are extended during rap hands.

See also jazz hands.
Watch enough footage of rappers performing and you will have a good idea of what rap hands is.

Rap God

A God named Eminem who decided to say "Uh, sama lamaa duma lamaa you assuming I'm a human
What I gotta do to get it through to you I'm superhuman
Innovative and I'm made of rubber
So that anything you saying ricocheting off of me and it'll glue to you
I'm never stating, more than never demonstrating
How to give a motherfuckin' audience a feeling like it's levitating
Never fading, and I know that the haters are forever waiting
For the day that they can say I fell off, they'd be celebrating
Cause I know the way to get 'em motivated" and become a Rap God, even though he already was.
Damn bitch! That Em is the Rap God!

mumble rap

A form of music that sounds like a stroke victim trying to deliver a speech; it is often incomprehensible and illogical. Characteristics of Mumble Rap include:

1) The rapper's stage name starts with "Lil" (Lil Wayne, Lil Pump, Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Yachty, etc.)
2) Lyrics are about sex, money, drugs, or fame with no originality
3) Mumble Rap is most often listened to by emotionally confused teens that get high (or vape) in groups in public areas
"...I didn't wanna rap like all these other rappers that's rapping right now with their same cadence... I can do it:

HEeDAHBAH-DUBAHDAH-UHH! HUuMANA-DUBADAH-BAHHH! DAABAHAEADAHAEBUADAH!"
