Drill music is a subgenre of Hip-Hop created in Chicago, Illinois in The New '10s, stemming from Atlanta's Trap Music. The term "drill" comes from slang meaning to kill someone with an automatic weapon. Musically, drill music features grim, minimalistic beats and simplistic, deadpan flows. The lyrics tend to follow suit, generally being gritty, violent, and direct, with topics such as crime, gang violence, sex, and drugs being common. This can be attributed to the genre's hometown of Chicago, known for its high crime and fatality rates (drill musicians refer to the city as "Chiraq" due to its murder rate being higher than wartime Iraq's). Many drill rappers are very young, with many of them achieving fame while still teenagers. In the UK, this genre was adopted not long after its creation, with groups in Brixton, South London forming their own take on the sound. This resulted in it gaining worldwide popularity, particularly in New York City, where artists began creating their own version of the sound, which blew up into the mainstream in 2019 and 2020 through the rise of rappers Pop Smoke (who was tragically killed in early 2020) and Fivio Foreign. |
