Cloud rap - what is it?
Cloud Rap refers to a form of hip hop whose distinguishing features include dreamlike beats (which often use wordless vocal samples, where singers harmonize or hold long notes, to produce a majestic, dream like effect) and abstracted, sometimes deliberately absurd, lyrics that make little to no sense.

Kyle: It’s the type of shit you’d hear while dreaming, or some shit
