Dirty Rap
Dirty rap (also known as porno rap, porn rap, sex rap, booty rap, or pornocore) is a subgenre of hip hop music that contains lyrical content revolving mainly around sexually explicit subjects. The lyrics are often overtly explicit and graphic, sometimes to the point of being comical or offensive. Historically, dirty rap often contained a distinctly bass-driven sound, which arose from the popular Miami bass rap scene. However, dirty rap has recently been heavily influenced by Baltimore club, ghetto house, and ghettotech. Many dirty rap songs have been used as soundtracks to pornographic movies since the 2000s, replacing the traditional porn groove. Late 1980s and early 1990s dirty rap Though the genre had been around since at least the late 1970s, with Blowfly's ''Rapp Dirty'', it was not until the 1980s, when Oakland rapper Too Short released the 1983 album '' Don't Stop Rappin''' containing multiple dirty sex subjects, that sex became a central focus.
