First, What is Hip-Hop Lo fi?

Lo-fi hip hop or Chillhop is a form of downtempo that combines elements of hip hop and chill-out music. It was popularized in the 2010s on YouTube and became an internet meme.

In 2013, YouTube began allowing live streams, resulting in the creation of 24-hour “radio stations” dedicated to microgenres such as Vaporwave, an offshoot of chillwave. Spotify contributed to the growth of lo-fi by creating playlists, such as “Chill Hits” and “Bedroom Pop,” and promoting “chill pop” artists.

In 2017, a form of downtempo music, labeled “chillhop” or “lo-fi hip hop,” became popular among YouTube music streamers. By 2018, several of these channels had millions of followers. One DJ, Ryan Celsius, proposed that they were inspired by a nostalgia for the commercials used by Toonami and Adult Swim in the 2000s, and that this “created a crossover between people who enjoyed both anime and hip hop music. ”

These channels also functioned as chat rooms, with participants often discussing their personal struggles. By 2018, Spotify’s “Chill Hits” playlist had 5.4 million listeners and had been growing rapidly.

Nujabes and J Dilla have been referred to as the “godfathers of Lo-Fi Hip Hop.” Vice contributor Luke Winkie has credited YouTube channel Lofi Girl (formerly known as “ChilledCow”) as “the person who first introduced a studious anime girl as part of his presentation, who laid the aesthetic foundation for the rest of the people operating in the genre” and suggested that “if there is a shared reference for lo-fi hip-hop, it’s probably MF Doom and Madlib’s Madvillainy album. “
