‘The Hip-Hop Flow Chart’ by Pop Chart Lab, An Art Print Ranking Rappers by the Size of Their Vocabulary

(larger)

Pop Chart Lab has created “The Hip-Hop Flow Chart“, a new art print that ranks well-known rappers (Drake, the Wu-Tang Clan and and 2Pac) by the “number of unique words used in each artist’s first 35,000 lyrics.” Signed and numbered prints are available to purchase online.

What’s more, each of these virtuosos of verse is then color-coded by their area of origin—all adding up to a fun, flava-ful flow chart that’s equally at home on the wall of a hip-hop habitué, etymology enthusiast or die-hard data junkie.
