THE SONIC INSIDER

Take a trip back to one of the most interesting eras of music: 2010s rap. This playlist dives into the psychedelic and experimental side of the genre, where 808’s, hard-hitting drums, and razor-sharp wordplay come together to create something timeless. Perfect for transporting yourself to a 2010s soundscape, Under the Influence explores the era’s signature themes and inspirations—many of them fueled by mind-expanding creativity. Featuring artists like A$AP Rocky, Mac Miller, Chance The Rapper, Tyler, The Creator, Kid Cudi, and more, this collection is a celebration of rap that’s as introspective as it is boundary-pushing.

Moving forward, for playlists of 100+ songs, I will not be embedding the YouTube videos due to users having issues accessing the page and will instead list the songs and artists top to bottom.

This playlist is meant to highlight popular rap artists of the 2010’s. There are plenty of other artists in this era not listed, but I wanted to choose the ones that match the theme as well as not over saturate the playlist with one particular artist. Without further ado – here is Under The Influence:
