Rage rap is a subgenre of hip hop characterized by its frenetic, high-energy sound, often featuring rapid-fire flows, screamed vocals, and distorted, aggressive instrumentation. Emerging in the mid-2010s, rage rap drew inspiration from punk, cloud rap, and trap, coalescing into a distinct style that reflects the angst, frustration, and hedonism of younger generations. With its peak popularity in the late 2010s, rage rap became a cultural phenomenon, particularly among teenagers and young adults, who resonated with its unapologetic, rebellious spirit. Artists within this genre often experiment with unconventional sounds, incorporating elements of electronic dance music, industrial, and alternative rock, setting rage rap apart from more traditional hip hop styles. Its breakneck pace, chaotic energy, and unbridled intensity have made rage rap a captivating and polarizing force in contemporary music.
