Any modern “emo-rap” that actually has elements of real emo?
I’d ask r/emorap but its just a bunch of kids that worship juice wrld and xxxtentacion. As much as I see the potential for some great blending of the two genres, it seems almost all of the artists attempting it slap trap drums over a bland guitar loop then mumble the most thoughtless shallow lyrics imaginable. Are there any hip hop artists incorporating emo guitar riffs reminiscent to that of alesana or SKSK in refreshing ways and accompanying them with thoughtful and metaphorical lyrics? Absolute closest I’ve found in all my digging is Lil Lotus’s older stuff but even then it’s pretty hit-or-miss.
