The iTunes Top 40 Alternative Rap Songs Chart is your weekly window into the world of alternative rap — hip-hop that challenges conventions — experimental beats, introspective lyrics, and a refusal to follow trends. Updated every week, this chart ranks the top 40 alternative rap singles on iTunes, giving you a real-time snapshot of what’s resonating most with fans of the genre right now.
The genre has been shaped by visionaries like Kendrick Lamar, Tyler the Creator, Childish Gambino, Denzel Curry, and Noname who push rap into genuinely new territory, whose work defines what alternative rap can sound and feel like. Whether the genre has centuries of tradition behind it or only emerged in recent decades, the artists on this chart are its current standard-bearers.
Discover what alternative rap sounds like today by exploring the full iTunes Top 40 Alternative Rap Songs Chart, updated fresh this week, in the chart below.
