Insane Poetry was one of the original innovators of horrorcore (which the group called the Terrifying Style before the former term took hold), a style of hip-hop that used horror-movie imagery and heavy doses of gore to make social commentary about American society. However, while horrorcore hip-hop went out of favor in the late 1990s, it continues in this vein to the present day.
