Hip-hop radio online runs from golden-age boom bap to trap, drill, grime and the Latin urbano sound, in dozens of languages. The stations below come from the open Radio Browser directory, ordered by listener votes — they include 181.FM Old School HipHop/RnB, All Underground Hip Hop Radio, Top Urbano from the Dominican Republic and deutschrap from Germany. Stations tag themselves, so a general hits station that plays some rap can appear too; names that say hip-hop, rap or urbano are the dedicated ones. Everything plays in your browser, 15 minutes a day free, with no account and no download.
On 72FM, open the hip-hop page and press play on any station — 15 minutes a day free, with no account and no download.
