I am confused Sup Forums. I am a black male but I try not to identity with the stereotypical shit. I generally dislike rap a whole lot and prefer heavy metal. The problem? I am starting to like Trap music.. like a whole fucking lot.
I honestly don't know why. Am I infected? Am I just going to become a raving monkey? God help me...
im black also and its just good party music stop overthinking it ffs
Daniel Torres
It's catchy, there's nothing wrong with it. The lyrics aren't the focus, they don't need to be well-written.
Hunter Morgan
Nah dude, I know alot of black dudes who hate trap music, following the traditional criticism of "simplitic beats and melodies"
Whats you taste in metal?
Cameron Howard
. Music is nothing but animals making weird noises at each other. Who cares. We're all monkeys.
Robert Bailey
When the music behind the lyrics is nothing but a disgustingly overproduced beat, then yeah, the lyrics better be up to fucking snuff for anyone to take it seriously.
Isaiah Wright
Maybe listen to non-shit trap then.
William Collins
How does liking trap make you a monkey? As long as you aren't listening to young thug I won't think something wrong of you
Isaac Carter
It's catchy and it's pretty damn visceral. If you enjoy metal for its visceral aspects you might enjoy trap, too.
Levi Cox
What does "over produced beat" even mean?
I like older stuff. Particularly, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. As far as newer stuff, I like Demon Hunter a lot and other bands as well.
I am not a big fan of death metal because I actually like to be able to make out lyrics.
Hunter Ross
Nigga keep on trappin that shit is OUR music
Isaiah Brown
examples please.
William Brooks
Listen to Night Demon user
Joshua Hill

Brayden Diaz

Grayson Garcia
WUZ
James Wright
trap is more influential and innovative than boom bap rap and indie rap
Gavin Williams
Was, maybe. Now it all sounds the same and it's getting pretty fucking boring
Henry Butler
KINGS
Evan Gomez
sounds the same HOW. People always say "This shit sounds the same!"
What the fuck does that even mean?
Dominic Stewart
It means that most examples of the genre sound similar to other examples of the genre Do you not have ears or something fool
Sebastian Peterson
nothing is stereotypical just appreciate what you enjoy
Logan Ward
what even characterizes trap from regular rap. Is most trap music auto tuned lyrics and EDM beats?
Bentley Torres
Le rattling hi hats Those booming 808 drums and the hi-hat clicks that are scatterd in the beat Listen for it
Ayden Howard
EDM appropriated trap, not the other way around. Check out Three Six Mafia for a history lesson.
Jacob Flores
>that feel when you actually listen and you can hear the rattling high hats
What does it mean bro? Am I becoming trap?
David Green
Li Herb - Welcome to Fazoland Chief Keef - Finally Rich Gucci Mane- Traphouse 3 Travis Scott - Days Before the Rodeo Stop thinking of things by their race, but by what you like and what you dont like
Adam Gray
desu OP just enjoy what you enjoy theres no reason for you to avoid listening to something because your worried about what other might think seriously just grow up and expand your tastes
Joshua Taylor
It's okay OP. Even though it's a small portition there exists good trap.
Bentley Howard
I like my trap with as much EDM influence as possible. LOTS AND LOTS of auto tune. Am I the one killing the genre?
Dmx....the spirit of his performance....shits in anything out tday
Gavin Hernandez
fuck off. DMX is garbo. No flow, no melodies, NO. FUCKING. HI. HATS.
Cameron Ramirez
thats because trap is rap what metal is to rock an sub genre that dosent focus on lyrics but more on instrumentation and the way it makes you feel/move
