Description This paper proposes synthesis of previous research about French rap, focusing sociolinguistic aspects of those papers. It presents a sociolexical approach to the observation of identitary neology throughout the rap as well as the methods of observation of corpora and speakers' conduct in using and perceiving the neologicity. On the example of three items (sisi, bicrave and werss), we propose a typology of identitary neologisms diffusion. We put stress on semantical variation of loanwords and the differencies between categories of speakers.
