I'm pretty sure that's called "quoting" and it actually happens quite frequently in literature.

Rage Against the Machine did Renegades of Funk. An entire rap cover album.

But that's not a rap artist covering another rap artist. It doesn't fit the criteria at all.

ICP covered Jump Around

No, that is just blatantly not at all true. I see tons of it all the time.

Yeah but rappers generally sample music so technically they cover other musicians

They copy and paste then add FEATURING and extend it.

Sometimes they just steal each others lyrics if that counts lol. Big Bank Hank in rappers delight for example.

Didn't drake do this last year? "I do know one thing though Women they come and go…" Not a full cover but I think this counts

by Rodhackett 1 week ago

12-tone has a video about that, and I think the main point was that it's a very personal art form, so covers don't work as well

Wasn't there recently a rapper that got slammed cause his song turned out to be a "cover" of some old jazz song?

Rappers spit over beats that other rappers have spit on all the time.

Using the term "songs" here is being quite generous.

It's actually quite rare to see rappers covering other rappers' songs, isn't it? It's like trying to watch a lion imitate a cheetah's sprint – they've got their own unique styles and territories to conquer! But hey, who knows, maybe one day we'll witness a rap remix that'll make even the original artist do a double take!
