Boom Bap is a style/sub-genre of hip hop characterized by hard-hitting drums, usually containing the kick drum/snare drum/hi-hat combination rather than claps, snaps, TR-808 bass drums, cowbells, shakers, and various other percussion sounds used for rhythm. It became popular in the 1980s and remained a popular style of hip hop throughout the 1990s. Its roots are directly linked to the original hip hop culture traditions of rapping over breakbeats, scratching, and blending older records together to create new music.
Boom Bap separated itself from previously commercially released Hip Hop music by replacing a full polished sound with a stripped-down beat. Boom Bap songs did not have progression, melody, singing, or extensive percussion often found in the emerging electronic music. Instead it relied on realistic drum patterns, sampling, scratching, and advanced rapping to provide a low-tech sound that represented the inner city.
By the late 90s, other styles of hip hop pushed Boom Bap into the underground but it is still viewed as the foundation of hip hop music with many fans still viewing it as “real” hip hop.
Boom Bap beats are supposed to reflect the sounds of the streets and connecting to the original breakbeat sound of hip hop formed in the 1970s. The breakbeats would be parts of songs where the melody and additional instrumentation was taken out and the drums would play by itself. The breakbeat would be the part the DJ loops and MC raps over.
The drums are often a loop of sampled breakbeat but may also come from a beat machine used to replicate real drums or a combination of the two. Sometimes two different kick drums or snares would be layered on top of each other to put an even heavier drum sound. The one and three count on the beat would typically have a kick drum and the two and four count of the beat would have a snare. These drums contained swing which is defined as the addition of tiny delays to every other hit of a beat. This gives the drums a natural sound of a real human drummer to give groove to the track. Tracks are typically between 80 to 120 bpm but can certainly be slower or faster.
In contrast to Boom Bap, Electrohop had various drum patterns, would feature constant snares or hi-hats in 32nd notes, and have percussion sounds such as claps, snaps, TR-808 bass drums, cowbells, shakers, and other sounds not typically included in physical drum sets.
