6/23/2023 0 Comments Yelawolf albums and mixtapes![]() So what do we get with country rap? Well, many people think it started with artists like Uncle Kracker and Bubba Sparxxx in the early 2000s, gaining traction with the success of acts like Colt Ford. or at least they used to be before what got popular were songs about booze, cars, and butts. ![]() Both aren't afraid to speak about the real problems of the downtrodden and talk about real social issues. Both are genres that are used to telling stories, and both love their alpha-male heroes, especially if they're outlaws. Both as of right now have a serious problem sustaining female talent in the mainstream without overt sexualization, and both have been going through significant growing pains when it comes to more progressive audiences. I mean, country and hip-hop are both driven by strong regional pride. Believe it or not, country and hip-hop have a disturbing amount in common, which is why I'm always baffled why so many people are amazed I like both of them. Ever since I said that I was both a hip-hop reviewer and the only country music critic on YouTube, I've gotten asked to talk about Yelawolf, affiliated with Shady Records and one of the more perplexing talents to be affiliated with Eminem.īut before I talk about Yelawolf, I need to talk about the fusion of country and hip-hop, country rap. I've been getting requests to cover this for months now.
