Backpack Rap Collection




From Urban Dictionary: "Bsically, a backpacker is a cat that spends most of his/her time traveling through public transit. Theyre a huge fan of music but mostly on a lyrically tip because they have a greater grasp and focus on lyrics that kills time while their traveling on the bus, subway, etc. They dont have the money to be rolling in luxury cars, etc. So when you come across a backpacker, theyre usually more of a lyrical cat because all they have is a walkman and a grip of CD's in their backpacks. With a walkman, youre usually more focused on words rathers than beats and hooks. Thats why most backpackers are considered more into the underground hiphop scene where artist's are more about lyrics. You usually find backpackers in inner cities because public transit is cheap, and to get from point A to point B isnt that far of a route."
