Conscious rap

[Jabberwocky]

Conscious rap deserves it's own thread right?

Look mom I'm all grown up now!

 

[Jabberwocky]

Both blockhead and homeboy sandman criminally underrated artists

Good shit. Those arrangements were extremely beautiful and sounds like bands playing, not a programmed VST.
What defines conscious-rap? Lyrical content? This style-type beats?

 

[Jabberwocky]

Lyrical content?

It's like "woke" rap or whatever. Basically the songs are about meaningful or everyday life shit, not about having the coolest sounding rhyme or drugs/sex/money.

It stems from people like Tribe and Bay Area 90s rappers who popularized it.

What if God ain't hearing you? That's your only fear
Each day you think more about your psychosis
No one but you can help you, and you know this

You finally realize that you've always lived in hell
No human model or metaphor can explain how you fell
The puzzle's alive, and it changes as you try to escape it
It created time and made it appear to pass by
You don't know what you think. You don't think what you know
You're a total lunatic, and afraid it's starting to show

"Bust this
so ill soliloquy
Never see Sole
in the spotlight
in any event,
I invent"
