Mykki Blanco has stretched hip-hop to its most unbound limits by blending noise and experimental elements with club and trap influences, while simultaneously treading a distinctly subversive path within a genre historically intertwined with problematic ideologies surrounding misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia.
Although Blanco is often recognized as a groundbreaking pioneer within the so-called 'queer rap' subgenre, the music from this new phase of their career shows a profound musical development: a move away from fixed genre boundaries and a redefinition of previous assumptions about the scope and potential of their artistic possibilities.
