A sub-genre of rap usually characterized by overly repetitive song structure, unintelligible lyrics, obnoxious melodies, and excessive posturing and label-flashing by the artist.
A classic example of this would be "Crank That" by Soulja Boy.

Tupac Shakur.
The first rapper to really pour his heart and soul into the mic and talk about both his personal issues as well as real world issues affecting Black people in areas of racism, politics, sociology, and civil rights. He even went as far as predicting his own death with his lyrics. He's regarded within the Rap community as an almost Messiah-like figure due to his accurate prophecies. He's also seen by some as the rapper equivalent of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X. Many rappers today regard him as the greatest rapper of all time.

A type of song intended to apologize for a rapper's previous wrongdoing(s). The song may or may not reflect the rapper's sincere thoughts, but it is undoubtedly a way to capitalize on his or her mistake(s).
Me: T.I.'s "Dead and Gone" is a catchy and believable example of Redemption Rap, while Chris Brown's "Changed Man" is Redemption Rap gone wrong. It's a pathetic attempt to guilt the listener into forgiving him, and I'm sure Chris Rock doesn't appreciate the allusion to his hit show.

Rap music that has no explicit cuss words or graphic lyrics about sex, drugs, violence and various other taboo topics
Will Smith is known for his clean rap, and ironically he comes off as a better lyricist than most 2010s rappers.
