   It is nice that music tends to be its own subculture but it would be nice if genres of music were applied across different sub cultures too. It does happen to an extent but I want more. A punk group that sings about retro computer games, a rap group that is focused on RPGs, a heavy metal band that only sings about sci Fi book plots.

     @m0xee @selzero Being narrowly themed might get old pretty fast, but now I wonder if there's a rap group where the members do not only have rap names but characters based on fantasy characters like elves and orks.

     you got a gross flow
     I'm Ivor, the wood elf
     spitting rhymes faster than a cross bow"

     @selzero I'm pretty sure everything on this list exists. E.g. there's a whole music genre called Nintendocore.

     @TildeGartenzaun @selzero
     There is also Nerdcore Rap that kinda fits the description, but still pretty broad. Here is a song by Hieroglyphics that is RPG inspired and themed. Yeah, back from the late 90-ies!
     A lot of independent/underground hip-hop artists reference pop culture including video games in their lyrics, the most recent example, AJ Suede: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZD3ciOeNW0
     There's a line about Abe's Odyssey. But I don't know of any artists being that narrowly themed, as to do this exclusively🤷
