There are also notable elements of EDM, with influences of 1990s–2000s music, as well as hyphy. Coined by Bay Area producer J Maine, the RnBass musical style has garnered critical attention since the early-to-mid 2010s and has been popularized with urban audiences across America by Los Angeles producer DJ Mustard, by mixing pop music elements of ratchet with turn-up lyrics. Despite originating in the West Coast, namely the Bay Area, RnBass producers and artists across the globe continue to develop R&amp;B with the modern RnBass genre.</p>
