Horrorcore rap music is essentially Gangsta Rap meets Horror Tropes, with a touch of bloodthirsty metal for good measure. Musically, they're basically "what if you rapped Death Metal lyrics?" The production style usually also favors dark and often dissonant textures, as well as horror movie samples. Rock and Heavy Metal guitar samples are also common, while many Soundcloud horrorcore artists from the 2010s were more rooted in trap and mixed in elements of nu metal and extreme metal. There's dispute over where the genre originated. Horrorcore is more or less gangsta rap turned up to 11. Expect subject matter to cover cannibalism, rape, torture, infanticide, occultism, necrophilia and other horrible things For the Evulz. However, it's common for horrorcore to have a strong social conscience, often incorporating elements of Christian redemption, portraying the protagonists as Dark Shepherds, or allegorising the misery of being a criminal, drug addict, or victim of injustice. Due to horrorcore allowing protagonists to be irredeemable and often fantastical, it avoids the Do Not Do This Cool Thing problem that has been known to occur with Gangsta Rap. It also allows it to be much funnier than conventional Gangsta Rap, with quite a lot of the genre aiming to be satirical and cartoonish as much as it is scary. In the 2010s, this split into two main strains. The dominant style from 2009-2013 was a lyrical Shock Rap style based around extreme and darkly comedic scenarios, often with exploitative celebrity namedrops, explicit drug use, political incorrectness used for shock value, and minimal or no Gangsta Rap elements. From 2014, this fell out of favor for the "SoundCloud horrorcore" or "Memphis horrorcore" style influenced by early Three 6 Mafia and popularised by SpaceGhostPurrp - a less lyrical, more lo-fi and 'vibe'-driven style frequently mixed with Emo Rap. While horrorcore artists can and do come from anywhere, the genre is generally associated with Memphis and the Midwest — in particular Detroit, one of the only rap scenes in America where the horrorcore style is so dominant that most emcees will at least dabble in it. The reason for Detroit's love of horrorcore is complex and related to Detroit's unique combination of racial segregation and urban decay. Could be said to be to Hardcore Hip-Hop what Death Metal is to Thrash Metal. See also Gangsta Rap, Shock Rock and Murder Ballad. The Memphis horrorcore style (popularized by Three Six Mafia) also wound up being a major influence on Crunk, mostly through its signature aggressive, insistent, and repetitive synth lines, and East Coast/Midwest horrorcore was a huge influence on Drill Music through its bleak atmosphere, graphic content and use of horror movie samples. |

JakProgresso (aka Jak Tripper): . The most prolific artist in the genre by a long shot. note Twelve of the releases on his Bandcamp page were recorded in 2020 alone. Said Bandcamp page is missing the majority of his discography. | |
