Rap style is a type of hip hop music that originated in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It is characterized by its aggressive lyrical content and sound, which incorporates elements of street culture such as graffiti art, breakdancing, and street gangs. The term 'Gangsta' is often used to describe this style of rap, which is known for its hard-hitting beats and lyrics that often contain profanity and references to violence.
