Atlanta bass, also known as 'ATL bass,' crunk or dirty south, is a high-energy strain of hip-hop music that emerged from Atlanta, Georgia in the early 1990s. Characterized by its deep, pulsating basslines and rhythmically catchy drum patterns, Atlanta bass is tailor-made for dancefloors and is often accompanied by simplistic, repetitive vocal chants and call-and-response lyrics that invite listener participation. Its sound is a gritty blend of electronic funk with a distinctive Southern flavor, which comes through in its regional slang and delivery. Artists like Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz have popularized the genre with their crunk anthems, amplifying Atlanta's club scene to mainstream prominence. This genre laid the foundation for much of Southern hip-hop's commercial success and cultural influence in the years to come.
