Acoustic guitar rap?

djchameleon · 08-05-2014, 01:20 PM

I'm sure you can find loads of acoustic covers of hip hop songs on Youtube but you are probably looking for original content.

Ah forgot about Gym Class Heroes but it's just an acoustic cover of their own song.

Certain Jack Johnson songs sound like borderline acoustic rap, at least in parts.

Check out "Cali Agents - Neva Forget" obviously they aren't a folk hip-hop group but in this particular track they rap over an acoustic guitar sample.

I think the band you may be looking for is 'Dizraeli and the Small Gods'. They don't sound like _old_ folk with rap lyrics, but they do sound like awesome.

I actually can't even click on those YouTube videos and can't tell what they are from my phone (plugin needed blah blah).. but if Gangstagrass hasn't been mentioned yet, they're ****in excellent. Lightning on the Strings and Rappalachia are both really cool albums, and here's a great one off track.

Fugees - Vocab, from their debut album Blunted On Reality.
Fugees and Lauryn Hill often employ acoustic guitars
