A lot of folks, including Tyler, are saying that IGOR wasn’t a rap album. I basically agree, but it got me thinking- what makes something a rap album? What makes a sing a rap song? What are the criteria? What is the essence of a rap song?
I’m going to discuss this in my Philosophy and Hip Hop class and I would love to know folks thoughts on it.

If he doesn't consider it a rap album. I'd say the intent of the artist is what determines the genre.
I don't think it can be just the intent of the artist. What if Nas didn't consider Illmatic a rap album?
“Rap” displays/focuses on some kind of showmanship ex: (Lil Wayne, Biggie, Big L) or narrative ex: (Nas, 2Pac, Earl). So rhymes, entendres, metaphors, poetic analogy etc must be the focal point. By contrast “Hip/Hop” leans on rhythm & emotion ex: (Cudi/Lil Uzi/Travis Scott)
This is 100% incorrect. Rap is the music that is representative of the culture (hip-hop). That's it. Like most types of music there are several splinters and sub-genres. Tyler can call it what he wants, but it is what it is.
@HipHopNumbers just broke it down. Only like 35% of the album is rapped with over 60% of the lyrics being sung. I'd say it should at least be the majority. Some would call it an almost R&B album
Yeah, based on the discussions on twitter and in my class today, I think that there has to be more “rapping” (non singing rhyming) than singing in order to be rap.
These days, I don’t know. In the past, I would have argued the type of beat one rapped over would be important. I.E., I never considered Rage rap, but in retrospect, De La Rocha was clearly rapping.
Yes. Rage is an interesting case.
