Videos: Trap

Trap music is a subgenre of hip-hop that originated in the Southern United States in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It is characterized by its dark, aggressive beats, heavy use of 808 drum machines and hi-hats, and frequent use of sampled vocals or vocal chops. Trap music often incorporates elements of EDM, such as build-ups, drops, and bass-heavy sound design, and is known for its fast-paced, energetic style. The genre has grown in popularity in recent years and has become a dominant force in mainstream hip-hop and pop music.
