OP right, fukk these old ass nikkas and their nostalgia.

Metro Boomin catalog from the past 2 years is :blessed:

Lex Luger sounds nothing like Metro, Metro sounds nothing like Mike Will, Mike Will sounds nothing like Toomp, Toomp sounds nothing like Southside/TM88

The "all trap beats sound the same" shyt is lame. You nikkas have old ears.

Trap has always been around. I like the way it sounds, OP. I agree that it's better than boombap. But dont go pissing off old folks. Afterall, they did start all if this. Don't hate just turn up.

metro has a spacey style, mike will has this menacing animated bouncy thing going on, southside and tm88 are street as fukk they like hard beats

Edm trap is much better than lex style trap. I do mike will tho that's my personal favorite, intertwining synths melodies with clever hi hats an unique 808s

Agreed.

You can include "drill" rap style beats as well.

But the pre-trap/pre-crunk style beats of the mid-90's Memphis rap scene (which spawned trap/crunk style beats) >>>>>> ERR'THANG

yea i feel that cause KRS1
"Loves Gunna Get You" bassline is

:whew:

not all boom bap is weak and not all south music slaps but when im riden i rather slap 90s west coast music cause i get best of both worlds.clean ass 808 basslines with the deep Kick.

:win:

yea.

but mid-80s big beats embody all of that much better than '90s west coast.
