Definition

A genre of music combining rhythmic vocal delivery with beats, originating from African American communities in the 1970s. This definition's claim of being 'the best type of music' is suspiciously subjective and that last example aged like milk in the sun.

Example Usage

She's been listening to nothing but '90s rap since discovering her dad's old CD collection.
