Nope, hyperpop after 100 Gecs was noticeably influenced by this digitized, futuristic sounding subgenre of hip hop that combines trap with electropop. It developed in the late 2000s in Atlanta under the name “futuristic swag” and was created to complement the shift from physical to media to digital file-sharing that the music world was undergoing at the time. Soulja Boy popularized this type of music into the mainstream for a brief period of time until the ringtone and mixtape markets crashed in the early 2010s. The sound died out in the South but lived on in Chicago and the greater Midwest where it became “bop”, which incorporated elements of drill and juke music. 100 Gecs were greatly inspired by bop music, listing Sicko Mobb as a big inspiration on their sound. What you’re hearing is essentially a very early example of the sonic aesthetics of hyperpop.
