why would you think that? i doubt that will ever happen. i know from my experience in chicago almost every black teen i came across wanted to be some trap rapper and were always talkin about' goin in tha studio' w/ jerome or somethin ..

edit: just saw "rappers" at the end of your statement. but from what i've seen a lot of "gangster''' if i could even say such a thing (american) youth want to be trap rappers and so the demand for producers is hi.

trap is dirty south but a little more simplistic i gess, it's been around a lot longer than what most people ,who started listening to it thru tnght&baauer etc, think.

not too long ago i asked this kid who i haven't seen in a while and is really into brostep (about a few years younger than me) how he was doin etc and what kind of music he is into nowto see if his taste has maybe changed up a bit or if he may be into something new that im into, and he mentioned trap,s o i replied back "oh like lex luger,etc waka flaka, gucci, chief keef(lol) etc" and he was just like "na man , baauer and shit like datsiks new swagga remix" that made me a little angry

the ironic thing being the fact you think lex luger, waka flaka, gucci are the defining examples of trap makes me kinda feel the same way.




demo for this tune done 20 years ago



heavy reverb, the tune that coined the term "ugk" shuffle used on a massive amount of trap tunes though most people think they're ripping off still tippin but this is the tune it comes from (free history lesson), 18 or 19 years old



horns? triplettes? triplettes on top of triplettes? that factory spring sound and the default settings from a korg triton on two synths? Yeah that was done 12 years ago too

[Terpit]

^haha your a trap hipster

[seanfromiran1]

why does every conversation of trap music spiral into some pissing contest over who is most in touch with its roots? just take this new interest in trap for exactly what it is: the mainstream grabbing hold of something that was once underground and stripping out the rawness. no need to get up in arms over something that has happened repeatedly throughout music history.

[pkay]

Because its not a genre. its southern hip hop

What if 20 years from now someone put 'damn son' over 800 dub?

New genre or rip off by idiots for idiots?

[Ficticious]

well you all know what I think of Trap now.

On the other hand, there could be ONE good one out there, maybe, alright maybe two.
