An underground style of hip-hop/trap
music directly inspired by 90s Memphis
rap, mostly present on soundcloud as trill style beats with old funk and nostalgic samples, often accompanied by vocals from old Memphis
rap tapes. The dark lyrics from these tapes with funk and modern trap creates a contrast which is aesthetically pleasing to the 90s and 2000 kids. The
music is brightened and modernized by producer between the age of 16 and 22, thanks to these funky, jazzy sounds mixed with vocals from Triple Six Mafia, DJ Paul, DJ Patt, and many more.
