- Keep for now and improve. Music magazines and pop music critics have certainly been devoting attention to this sub-genre, even if it is nebulously defined. Music critic Jon Caramanica devoted a feature-length article on SoundCloud rap in The New York Times , noting the sub-genre "in the last year has become the most vital and disruptive new movement in hip-hop thanks to rebellious music, volcanic energy and occasional acts of malevolence". [1] Rolling Stone and Complex have devoted print to the movement, [2] [3] while Spin contrasted the sub-genre's popularity with the troubles of SoundCloud the company itself. [4] I've added "find sources: SoundCloud hip hop" above to find additional material. I say develop the article as much as possible and prudent, and if it's no longer a "thing" in a year, I'd have no objection to being merged into a appropriate broader article such as Alternative hip hop or Underground hip hop, to contextualize and consolidate the plethora of micro-genre stubs— as music journalist Mosi Reeves notes: "Before SoundCloud rap was a phenomenon feted by Rolling Stone, the New York Times, Complex, and dozens of lesser trend-hunter publications, there was Tumblr rap, the nickname briefly given to buzzy acts like SpaceGhostPurrp and Antwon; and MySpace rap, which yielded "hipster rappers" like the Cool Kids, Uffie, Pase Rock, and Amanda Blank."
