Cloud rap (también conocido como trillwave1 o based music2) es un microgénero34 de la música Hip hop. Es típicamente caracterizado por su producción estilo lo-fi.
Clams Casino ha sido reconocido como pionero del sonido del cloud rap en 2010.5 La producción de cloud rap la música ha sido descrita como "brumosa", que a menudo incluye "muestras vocales etéreas" y la "estética de los productores electrónicos de dormitorios". En un artículo de 2010, Walker Chambliss presumió que el término fue inventado por el escritor musical Noz mientras entrevistaba al rapero Lil B, pero la entrevista en cuestión no incluía realmente la frase. los artistas del Cloud rap emplean muestras vocales "tipo canto" para crear un efecto "surrealista".6 Según Nico Amarca de Highsnobiety, el género se definió inicialmente por el uso de "frases sin sentido y cebos de Twitter", como para parodiar y abrazar la cultura de Internet, a partir de la cual se creó. Amarca También cree Yung Lean había cambiado al cloud rap a través de su "melancólico y ensueño rapeo"". De acuerdo con FACT, el género describe "casi todo lo-fi, rapeo borroso que hace su camino a la red".7 El género atrajo la atención de la linternet cuando el rapero A$AP Rocky debutó en 2011. El cloud rap se ha vuelto popular en la "blogósfera", pero su interés general ha disminuido.
Drain Gang (formerly known as Gravity Boys Shield Gang) is an artistic group, primarily focusing on music, consisting of Swedish singer/rapper Bladee, singer/producer Ecco2K, Thai singer/rapper Thaiboy Digital, and Swedish producers Whitearmor and Yung Sherman. The group is also known for its fashion output, often walking for brands such as ALYX Studio and modeling for HOMME magazine. [1][2]
The group formed in 2013 in Stockholm. Thaiboy Digital was residing in Sweden at the time. Bladee and Ecco2K had previously collaborated as the grindcore band Krossad.[3] Signing to the YEAR0001 label, the members of Drain Gang gained prominence in the cloud rap scene from their collaborations with labelmate Yung Lean.[4] Producer Yung Sherman is also a member of Yung Lean's Sad Boys collective.
In 2015, Thaiboy Digital was deported from Sweden for immigrating illegally.[5] Through the internet, he has managed to continue collaborating with the other members from his new home in Bangkok. He and Bladee released a collaborative EP titled AvP in 2016, which featured production from both Whitearmor and Yung Sherman.[6]
In 2017, Bladee, Ecco2K and Thaiboy Digital released their collaborative album D&G, featuring production from members Whitearmor, Yung Sherman, and frequent collaborators Gud, Woesum, and Australian-based collective Ripsquad.[7]
In 2019, the group released a collaborative EP titled Trash Island. Whitearmor served as the executive producer, while Ripsquad and German producer Mechatok returned to contribute additional production. The EP was a surprise release, as no announcement was made on YEAR0001's nor the group's various social medias.[8]
Zak Arogundade Gaterud, better known by his stage name Ecco2K, is a British-Swedish singer, designer, model, director and member of Drain Gang from Hornstull, Stockholm. Known for his experimental and innovative songwriting, he has also been celebrated for his directorial and design endeavours at the brand Eytys as well as for his own product line g'LOSS.
Cloud rap is rhythmically similar to lo-fi and chill-wave beats but distinguishes itself with distorted, psychedelic samples and the inclusion of rap.[7] The genre takes inspiration from the “diversity of influences and the easy accessibility” that cloud computing entails.[9] Such influences include hip hop, drum and bass, grime, and trip hop, R&B, dance, indie, rock, and pop music genres.[9]
The label “cloud” denotes distinct characteristics of the genre such as its “hazy,” ethereal aesthetic (in terms of both aural and visual expression) and its ambiguity as a genre without clearly defined borders.[5] Cloud rap’s lyrics sometimes revolve around themes of love and betrayal, as well as more typical themes found in popular music such as sex, drugs, and alienation.[6] Frequently vocalists use nonsensical catchphrases and Twitter baits, such as interjections like “swag,” and references to being “based,” which highlights a sense of self-aware absurdity as an attempt at parody while embracing its genesis of internet culture.[citation needed]
Cloud rap pulls from a diversity of rap sounds and locales: from both the East and West Coasts and the South.[9] In particular, cloud rap often utilizes looped samples from female singers, and often from those whose voices have an ethereal quality.[9] Often, cloud rap is released independently of record labels, and cloud rap artists rely on internet services (such as SoundCloud, YouTube, and Twitter) to distribute and promote their music
