 * Delete, with a possible redirect to experimental hip hop - This is, at best, a WP:TNT scenario. The article doesn't even appropriately summarize the scant sources that do exist for this particular meaning of "art rap". The words "art" and "rap" are also combined to talk about various aspects/kind of hip hop music/genres/subgenres/themes, but most appear to talk about things that seem to connect to experimental hip hop as our article talks about it. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 14:40, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to experimental hip hop. Defining musical genres is tricky, and discriminating between them is even harder, but this article is weak and doesn't accord with what the sources say. The word "art" is commonly used as a rather vague qualifier as in "art music", "art film", "art game", "art rock", etc, so maybe the meaning of this is too obvious to need explaining, or too vague to be worth trying to explain, but a redirect to a similar term can't do too much harm.
