Description

Chicano rap is a West Coast hip-hop style that blends Mexican-American cultural identity with street narratives, often incorporating Spanish lyrics, bilingual wordplay, and Latin musical influences. The sound typically features laid-back G-funk beats, lowrider culture references, and themes exploring barrio life, immigration, and cultural pride. It emerged primarily from California in the 1990s as a distinct voice within hip-hop that celebrates Chicano heritage.
