A genre made up by MTV when they made their own version of the classic opera "Carmen" starring Beyonce.
"I rented 'Carmen,' wanna come over and watch?"
"The real one or that hip hopera with Beyonce in it?"

Hip-Hopera is the joint dropped by The Fugees and Bounty Killer in 1997. It can be found on Bounty Killer's single entitled "Hip-Hopera" as well on The Fugees' 2007 album "Besides."
My favorite verse in Hip-Hopera is:
Through the temples of doom
Somehow we managed to bloom
Like blossoms.
"By any means necessary," said Malcolm;
Nights before battle we play dead like possums,
Mimimizing our losses like caution
To the maximum,
Strategies for the Refugees.
How many mics do you rip? I say not too many.
Through the temples of doom
Somehow we managed to bloom
Like blossoms.
"By any means necessary," said Malcolm;
Nights before battle we play dead like possums,
Mimimizing our losses like caution
To the maximum,
Strategies for the Refugees.
How many mics do you rip? I say not too many.
