How many hip hop songs have been made?

There is no definitive answer to the question of how many hip hop songs have been made. One estimate, from the website Statista, suggests that there were approximately 185,000 hip hop songs released in 2021. However, this number is likely to be an underestimate, as it only includes songs that were released on major streaming services. It does not include songs that were self-released or released on independent labels. Additionally, the number of hip hop songs released each year is likely to have increased significantly in recent years, due to the growing popularity of the genre.
