Thats dumb to say trap is limited to ATL when alot of the famous trap produces aint even from atl.
Lex Luger, Zaytoven, Drumma Boy, all from other states.

Mosr of you never heard the word trap until T.I.

first time i remember hearing a rapper mention the Trap was Scarface in 1996

first verse
[ame=http://youtu.be/qehnJIDPxJc]GETO BOYS - GETO BOYS AND GIRLS - YouTube[/ame]


"I remember in the 80's me and pops would rock
In a 7 0 Chevy with the drops in slot
Use to pass me Pepsi Cola while he drunk him a pint
Tippin' to the southside runnin' a light
Use to have me up in 3rd Ward checkin' his traps
Collectin' his scratch, protection' his snap"



Scarface and E 40 was the first to make whole albums based on selling drugs so they was the first to do Trap rap but if u wanna talk the "Trap sound" as we know today... Master P made that sound popular... Ugk, and Geto Boys did it first and dabbled wit the sound but Master P made whole albums wit the trap sound

listen to Master P Break'em off then listen to T.i. - Dope boyz... they both have that same sound

Young Jeezy, T.i., Gucci, Rick Ross... all these cats took more from Master P than anybody else


but Master P was influenced by cats like Scarface, Ugk, E 40 so hey

:wow: At thinking Trap music started with TIP and Jeezy.

You can trace that shyt back to the Geto Boys, UGK, DOC, and production wise early 3'6 Mafia and Pimp C.

Like someone posted, Scarface said it in 1996 and Big Boi mentioned it on Spottieottiedopaliscious in 1998 which is one my favorite records of all time


"Can't gamble feeding baby on that dope money
might not always be sufficient but the
United Parcel Service & the people at the Post Office
didn't call you back because you had cloudy piss
So now you back in the trap just that, trapped
Go on and marinate on that for a minute"
