Low bap is a subgenre of the Greek hip hop music scene that emerged in the mid-1990s as the sound of the prominent Greek hip hop group Active Member.[1] It is characterized by slower tempo and rapping than usual, often combined with lyrics with sociopolitical content.[2] The words "low bap" is derived from the boom bap hip hop subgenre from the East Coast of the United States. The low bap movement has been expanded, so that today it includes bookstores, youth centers, and specialized magazines. Cinematic attempts, concerts, and festivals have also taken place in an effort to broaden the scope of the movement, and introduce new bands to the genre's range of followers.
Low bap has its beginnings in Perama, an industrial suburb of Piraeus in Athens Urban Area.
