Emo-rap hasn’t exactly won awards for its image in its short few years on earth. It quickly got massive and then, just as quickly, became embroiled in scandal. You can tell its artists by their face tattoos, rainbow hairstyles and prescription drug-inspired names; also by their premature deaths (Lil Peep), alleged felonies (Tekashi 6ix9ine) or both (XXXTentacion).
