Every Hip-hop song that fits F3–F5

What this list is
The catalogue holds 430 songs with a sourced lowest and highest note, and 19 of those are Hip-hop. A song is on this page only if both of its notes already sit inside F3–F5 — nothing has been moved to another key.
A voice type is a convention for classifying a trained voice by timbre and where it sits, not a test result on its own.
No song here is marked safe or risky. Those labels are read off notes held for two seconds, and this page has not heard you sing.
