Sub-genre of rap. As its name suggests, a combination of rap music and emo music. While Afro-centric, alt rap/conscious rap, and political rap have been well received w/o debate; emo rap is the antithesis of most of hip hop’s essence. Hip hop, in general, seeks to establish the alpha –- making a name for yourself via graffiti, being the illest lyricist/battle rapper, biggest balla/highest rolla, etc. ‘Emo’tions are a vulnerability in the armor of dominance.
