Rapping (also rhyming, flowing, spitting, emceeing or MCing) is an artistic form of vocal delivery and emotive expression that incorporates "rhyme, rhythmic speech, and [commonly] street vernacular". It is usually performed over a backing beat or musicalaccompaniment. The components of rap include "content" (what is being said, e.g., lyrics), "flow" (rhythm, rhyme), and "delivery" (cadence, tone). Rap differs from spoken-word poetry in that it is usually performed off-time to musical accompaniment. It also differs from singing, which varies in pitch and does not always include words.

Rap is a primary ingredient of hip hop music, and so commonly associated with that genre that it is sometimes called "rap music". These are the following rappers that have had songs in video games:
