A thread for discussing this genre/scene of music. I'm thinking artists like $uicideboy$, Denzel Curry, Scarlxrd, Pouya, Ghostmane, Lil Peep, and also the more ambient/sad trap acts like Fat'se, Shinigami, Wicca Phase Springs Eternal, etc. Do you like this music? Do you hate it? Do you even know it? Do you have any favorite artists in this style? Are there any Christian artists with this style?

I know a Scarlxrd song or two. I like the style. You know what I've said about black metal before, though? How some of it just has this... "darkness" to it? I definitely feel the same with Scarlxrd. When someone mentions "dark" rap, the first thing I think of is noise/rap group clipping. (TURN DOWN YOUR VOLUME.) When someone mentions "sad" rap, the first thing I think of is N'Dep, an artist I found in 2012. I don't think he's even active anymore, though. As far as music goes, I don't know any Christian rap like this, no. I've been... throwing around ideas? I have no idea if I'll actually make any though, so don't hold me to that. As far as lyrics go, I would absolutely point to Sevin's music. This is definitely a thread for _.

Ghostmane is the one who recently released a hardcore album, correct?

Ghostmane is the one who recently released a hardcore album, correct? I think so. Quite so. I wouldn't say that's his whole catalog, though. He sounds more like Eminem than $uicideboy$ Yeah, Scarlxrd seems like he has some serious issues. The one time I ever felt a dark presence while listening to music, it was rap (not Scarlxrd though). Interesting. Musically, I think Scarlxrd wears out his welcome after a few tracks. His stuff is very intense, but doesn't have a lot of variety. I think Denzel Curry hits the target that Scarlxrd aims at, but his music is really dark too. I want something that does have a kind of darkness or sadness or minor-key aspect to it. I don't want to listen to someone talk about how they're gonna sip some lean after they murder that hoe.

Got really into Wicca Phase Springs Eternal's sound, but their lyrics are basically all about the occult, and not in the horror movie/Black Sabbath vein, but in the "let me tell you all about the symbolism of Thelema" way. Not what I really want to be jamming to.
I still love the song "Higher Power" that he did with SmrtDeath; I've been listening to it constantly.
Trying to find Christian music that sounded like this did not go well, as there's basically nothing like it.
Same thing with $uicideboy$. "For the Last Time" might be my favorite rap song. But I want something where it's sad and "authentic," but doesn't just wallow in the negative emotions.
