New Hip Hop: Emerging Underground Rap

New Hip Hop is a Spotify playlist of emerging underground rap from up-and-coming rappers, curated by Lord Reverb. Hungry bars, new beats and no big names yet.

These verses were written in notebooks and recorded in closets. Raw flow, sharp punchlines and beats that knock without a major label budget. Hear them before the features start. Then say you knew first. Rap that still smells like a notebook. Tight loops, open verses and the feeling you caught something early.

Good for finding rappers early, gym sessions, drives and cyphers. Start with Open in Spotify and follow it, so the next name is already in your library. New rappers join as they earn their place, so the queue stays hungry. Run it back with Rap Workout, Alternative Hip Hop and Jazz Rap and New R&B.

Tap the orange + Submit Your Track button, right under Open in Spotify, if you're a rapper or beatmaker with something sharp. Give us a clear vocal, drums that hit and a verse worth rewinding. Free to send, heard by a human, and not for sale.
