Acid rap is a style of underground music pioneered by Detroit artist Esham in 1987. It is characterized by vinyl sampling of funk and psychedelic rock groups and high energetic, wicked rhymes. Groups like Insane Clown Posse and Natas adapted heavily off the style in the 1990's. It is sometimes also referred to as horrorcore and wicked shit.
