Rap

Crazy Town is a Rap act. Their sound grew out of The Shape of Punk to Come, Troy Van Leeuwen, Saving Abel, Justin Warfield and Rivers Cuomo. Those roots explain a lot about how Crazy Town arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Primer 55, Taproot, Adema, Saliva and Ill Niño, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Black Rob, Paul Oakenfold, Sugar Ray, Adema and Barbie: The Album, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 38 connections around Crazy Town, reaching back through The Shape of Punk to Come and forward to Black Rob.
