London rap, also known as UK rap or British rap, is a genre characterized by its eclectic blend of hip-hop, grime, and Afro-swing elements. Emerging in the early 2010s, it drew from the city's diverse musical heritage, incorporating African and Caribbean rhythms, often with a laid-back, melodic flow. The genre's sound is marked by its use of trap-influenced beats, minimalist production, and introspective lyrics, often focusing on everyday life, relationships, and street experiences. As a key part of the UK's urban music scene, London rap gained popularity in the mid-to-late 2010s, with its cultural significance lying in its authentic representation of London's multicultural identity. Distinguishing itself from US rap and grime, London rap's unique blend of styles and relaxed, conversational tone have captured a devoted fan base, making it a distinct and exciting force in contemporary hip-hop.
