They're all off shoots of what Future invented

Mumble Rap is like I said earlier just a derogatory way to describe Trap

They usually don't bother much with complex rhymes because it's more about not upsetting the hypnotic flow

It's for the most part a southern thing

Very early 2 Live Crew was mostly chanting behind ridiculous bass

It's also a descendent of DJ Screw - as in meant to be listened to high as **** on purple drank and purple weed -everything is purple-

i'm not really a fan of yachty, but he did own up to the whole cello/flute mistake. i mean if krs-one can rap about the wrong beastie boy being dead, then yachty should at least be given some leniency.

i think mumble rap is kind of loose as a descriptor. if it's only attributed to rappers with incoherent lyrics (because they're "mumbling")--and that's the only requisite i've known the genre to have, so correct me if i'm misguided about this--then it's confusing on how that incoherence is gauged. i'd guess young thug, lil uzi vert, lil yachty, and famous dex are shoe-ins, but i never really thought of the likes of denzel curry, travis scott, and kodak black incomprehensible enough to be frequent additions to mumble rap playlists as much as they are. are a chunk of drill rappers lumped into the genre by extension?

tiller seems like a weird inclusion in that list, unless i'm missing something in his discography

It's that autotune sing song style of trap. Why I include Travi$ Scott even though he doesn't really mumble. People will lump him in anyways. Also forgetting Desiigner. He's like the most mumbly.
