I feel like Black Kray is a dillution of the Raider Klan sound into a more purposefully abstracted take (v. similar is NYC's Little Pain or Lil' Pain or *yawns into a coffin*). These guys exist in a very similar dimension to Yung Lean.
The actual trillwave was a fake label for the Rocky sound, which is essentially one part Bay Area post-hyphy's experimental fringe (Main Attrakionz, Lil' B) one part SpaceGhostPurrp's spacier takes on 90s gangster rap tropes, and one part G-Side's whole 'dramatic beats to overwhelm the terrible rapping'. Now its still the same but even more and more devoid of character.
was waitin for u to drop the deets fam
some of these producers r fucking talented though man, i dont rate the rappers just more lil b/chief keef mumbling and fantasy gangster lyrics, whatever. but the beats r absolute fire
ended up subscribing to a couple accounts on youtube (shroom head, trillphonik) and found some stuff i can vibe to
steezyasfvck - 1995,
spaceghostpurp - black money world
night lovell - concept vague
main attrackionz had a couple bangers iirc, raider klan i never paid no attention to really, in fact a few months ago id be totally against this aesthetic/type of rap (hipster orientated, white n nerdy) but man i NEED instrumentals to all that goth money shit
fully c/s "dramatic beats to overwhelm the terrible rapping"
cant help but feel theres rappers out there more deserving of these gems
