Is poetry rap recognized in your country? I like US and UK hip hop besides JP one but I only know UK grime’s Devlin his style is the closest thing to so called poetry rap which is well listened to in my country.
I’m not good at English so I can’t explain what exactly poetry rap is in English, soo I’ll drop some poetry rap songs with YouTube links (they’re all Japanese cut me some slacks🙏)

Basically reading poetry on nujabes type beats while not relying with rhyming or conventional flows which are the most important parts in Hip Hop.
Or is it a Japanese thing? I’m genuinely lost.
