Originally a sub-genre of Rap, evolving into its own genre due to its distinction of appeal amongst Rap fans. Early influence includes Lil Wayne as his popularity boomed, and could explain the common use of "Lil" as a suffix and the area credited with its origin. Heavily embraced by the huge major lables and music industry because it represents success of their long term agenda intent in harming minority communities and interest in "critical thinking", extracting detrimental qualities from the wide range of artistic expression represented in Rap, combined into a powerful covert weapon of self destruction. Requiring minimal to no effort for its composition, without the typical defining elements of Rap, such as rhyming or originality. Such as using the same word to rhyme with itself, the N word being a popular favorite to meet the inherent "rhyming" aspect of Rap. Mumble is a kind of encryption that mostly only younger generations can decipher and gives them an identity since our education system has utterly failed. Critisism only strengthens its quest for authenticity by giving it a sense of defiance or value in progressive change. Instinct to be original takes a path of further extremes.. A symbol of achievement for the ruling narcissists a.k.a. illuminate, fully supported and funded under bad intentions to shape society and never be provably traced back to their cause.

A word 80 year olds or edgy 13 year olds use to describe modern hip hop song where lyrics arenβt super deep and meaningful. Not all songs are going to have deep lyrics and not every song from the 90s was Brendas Got A Baby. You guys need to open your eyes sometimes.

A form of music that sounds like a stroke victim trying to deliver a speech; it is often incomprehensible and illogical. Characteristics of Mumble Rap include:
1) The rapper's stage name starts with "Lil" (Lil Wayne, Lil Pump, Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Yachty, etc.)
2) Lyrics are about sex, money, drugs, or fame with no originality
3) Mumble Rap is most often listened to by emotionally confused teens that get high (or vape) in groups in public areas

Trash ass music that is for some reason popularized in media. It is nothing more than a "rapper" who utters incomprehensible nonsense over a beat. When you finally do find out what these guys are saying it's usually a bunch of shit about doing drugs, fucking hoes, flaunting their undeserved money, and other bullshit. Overall it's just one of the many bizzare things considered to be "cool" by backwards minded people.

Me: *sighs* How tf do people like this mumble rap trash?
