You clearly didn't read my full post so let me post it again


"I find that when it comes to lyricism (for some unknown reason) it seems to me that overall, the most lyrically talented rappers are of the horrorcore style or they at least have some horrorcore influence even if they aren't necessarily horrorcore rappers you can still hear/see the influence of horrorcore in their music (example Vinnie paz).

Some recommendations from me, these are people who I think are horrorcore but others (including the rappers themselves) may disagree. The reason for this is that there is to many sub-genres. For example, if you want to be specific about it, Esham is actually "acid rap" not horrorcore, and the sole creator of that sub-genre(he coined the term at least)."
