Psychedelic rap (or psychedelic hip hop) is a microgenre that fuses hip hop music with psychedelia. The genre's sound was influenced by psychedelic rock and soul, funk and jazz, utilizing breaks and samples that create a hallucinogenic effect. Psychedelic drugs may also play a part in shaping the genre's sound.
