Thread title pretty much sums it up. I'm unsure if this subgenre really has a name, but I've just been calling it depression rap.
Essentailly, rap where the lyrics are some form of venting by the artist. Here's a few good ones.

"I bet it's like Rav" I said before I clicked the thread, I love this poo poo.

Problem is not all of it is rap, but if you like Rav and Atlas I have to recommend Pat The Bunny and Andrew Jackson Jihad. It's folk punk but it hits the same spot in my mind.

And I love Atlas but my favorite song isn't so sad, it's Alarm.

What really sucks though is what happened to the guy in half of Ravs songs. Kill Bill ended up being a sex creep so it's hard to enjoy a lot of Ravs old songs :( but his latest song with Potsu loving melts

Yeah, AJJ is pretty good. Been listening to them for a few years.
That loving sucks about Kill Bill, though, he's got a good voice.

Would you include pink siifu, Akai solo, ovrcst, and moor mother in this genre? I dove deep into this cluster thanks to Spotify recommendations. I know almost nothing about these musicians.
