Genre research No.3: Gangster rap
Background information
Gangster rap is very similar to Rap/hip-hop, but is an evolution of it. It has a central focus of gang life and contains a more grime-like style. A lot of artists who produce hip-hop produce gangster rap.
Artists such as the A$AP mob and Taylor gang produce gangster rap, however the figure heads of these gangs are A$AP rocky and Wiz Khalifa who were on the related artists for Hip-hop/rap!
Reasons for choosing this genre
I find the lifestyles of the artists highly intriguing and would enjoy recreating the style of video used in gangster rap videos.
