Brooklyn Drill

Brooklyn drill is a gritty, bass-heavy subgenre of drill music, strongly influenced by the sounds originating from Chicago and the UK. It emerged from the Brooklyn streets, encapsulating the raw energy and the lived experiences of its inhabitants. The genre is marked by its dark, ominous beats, heavy use of 808s, and aggressive, often repetitive hi-hats. Artists in this scene utilize hard-hitting lyrics that narrate tales of urban struggle, gang life, and survival, delivered with a relentless flow that matches the intensity of the production. Brooklyn drill has a menacing, yet hypnotic appeal, with a sonic edge that's become a staple of New York's contemporary hip-hop landscape. The tragic death of notable figure Pop Smoke in 2020 catapulted the genre into a global spotlight, underlining its cultural significance and resilience.
