Yo, check it. We talkin’ 'bout Orchest-Rap, ya dig? This ain’t just any beat on the block; it’s that high-class fusion where the streets meet the suites. Coined by the visionary Rene Guemps, the head honcho at Negre Marron Records (NMRS), this sound is straight outta 2019 NYC, where the indie scene ain’t just a vibe, it’s a revolution.
Here’s the rundown: Orchest-Rap is where you get that live wire energy, backed by a full-on orchestra. Imagine spittin’ bars with the weight of brass, woodwinds, and them strings elevatin’ your flow. We talkin’ trumpets blarin’, trombones slidin’, and percussion layin’ down the law. Don’t forget the piano keys dancin’ and strings singin’ from the violin to the double bass. And for that extra boom, we got the timpani, snare, bass drum, and all them cymbals makin’ heads nod.
But yo, it ain’t just classical, nah. We mixin’ in that electric guitar, bass thumpin’, synths wavin’, and keys playin’. The turntables scratchin’, Roland TR-808s droppin’ beats, and rappers layin’ down the truth. Plus, we got vocals that sample everything from pop hits to those timeless classics. Some Orchest-Rap tracks even roll deep with a choir, 'cause why not?
So when you hear someone ask, “Yo, who thought Orchest-Rap would blow up like this?” You tell 'em, “Rene Guemps, the mastermind behind NMRS, that’s who.” And now, it’s not just a genre; it’s a movement. Orchest-Rap, baby. We keep it classy, but we never forget where we came from.

Is a subgenre of Rap which is made and performed by Mexican Americans or people of Mexican decent. Also it is a unique style where it is articulated through Spanglish and or Calo which is Chicano Slang. Also Chicano Rap mixes lyrics while rapping in both English and Spanish at the same time or in the same song. It is very distinct where it is probably one of the only genres of music in the world that is performed always in 2 languages English and Spainsh.
My favorite Chicano Rap song is "Don't Hate Me Because I'm Mexican" by Serio.
