When is trap music going to die already?

[IllmaticDelta]

The sound won't change until there is a new wave of moguls running labels. Until some new Master P's, Diddy's, Hov's, Dame's, & Russell's come through and crush the buildings, we're stuck with this low cost high profit fast food music we have today

are we gonna act like most these people mentioned above didn't make fast food music with largely the same content as the Trap guys w/o the strip club element?

I told this local producer to start making non trap beats and abandon the popular southern sound because it sounded uninspiring.

If you don't make beats, keep your suggestions to yourself. Telling you as a producer myself, nobody wants your input telling them how to make beats frfr

It aint for you, fall back & let these youngins eat.

nikkas aren't tired of hearing this shyt yet? these nikkas been making the same fukking track for damn near 10 years. I swear the south find one niche and beat it into the ground. East coast and west was more diverse.

But how many tracks about p*ssy, lean and weed do it take to bore the avg nikka? these nikka always rapping about selling coke. nikkas this ain't the 80s, who the fukk is selling kilos of coke and living like tony Montana in mansion via 2017? But every rapper is...which is fine because its entertainment but god damn, atleast be different, maybe come from a different perspective. like maybe a Rodney Dangerfield type of hustler, where you're the uncool guy that get no respect and the artist raps from that perspective. or have a gimmick, I want to see a nikka rapping in a zoot suit...now that'll be interesting to look at atleast

I get it that rap is about the money now and its just a hustle, hence why quantity is important than quality. Rap has become the new dope, make it cheap, fast and sell alot cheap. But you can still make good art and sell it like its heroin if you like.

I cant relate to these new nikkas man. Why do all of them look the same? is it a requirement to have tattoos on your face? man they better go platinum for the next 70 years, because if you're a black man with a fukking tattoo on your face, than nikka u better hope either some docile rich cracker create a 100k warehouse job or your future is finished...retard

are we gonna act like almost everything you just said aren't basically the same type of criticisms that were around in the 90s?

Hip hop in the 90s was commercial garbage. It strayed to far from the golden era of the late 80s when Rap was real with Rakim Kane and PE.
But then again, hip hop became wack and commercialized once it left the parks in the late 70s and early 80s.
Once it was recorded, it was over.

 

[feelosofer]

It won't, Trap is stripped down to the bare elements, it's super easy to process and take little or no thought.

when these n*ggas start picking up books

as I said before, if you ask the real OG hiphoppers from the pre-record days, they will tell you that the rapper and rap record destroyed true HipHop.

Trap music is the voice of the new generation .

Scary and sad at the same damn time

Scary and sad at the same damn time

this is what older black generation was saying about HipHop in the early 1980s and that shyt was largely playful sounding music These criticisms are largely generational. As I showed you above, everything people are saying now about Trap/Mumble rappers, was said in the 90's about west coast gangsta rap, east hard core rap, east coast shiny suit era and you can go back to the 80's with early gangsta rap and even further back to the late 70's playful, disco rap.

I think I could be one of those rappers with a few more years of development but like it's just so overbearingly hard to get people to give a fukk, the industry bars us due to lack of media star power, and the underground scene is kind of all over the place so it's choosier than ever imo, finding that middle ground is crucial but just hard as hell. I think the key is going to be for them to collaborate with mutiple genres and incorporate hip hop into them

Im not a rapper but I'm a musician that starting to get into production/beatmaking and i agree with u. I think tha next step is to mix two genres/styles that havent been mixed before. Im working on combining old school delta blues with slide guitars over trap style percussion.

Ppl need to start experimenting more and stop going to tha same well over n over n over

B-b-but thats not what tha streetz n tha thots wanna hear breh....

So they got mad that rappers wanted the music to be more than bare bones Disco, EDM, and Club/Party music? Morons.......and they say "Hip-Hop Is Dead" they promoted that idea in the first place.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Since trap music's beginnings are from the 90s, never

You gotta remember, Disco Djs were the first rappers (syncopated to the beat) whereas the "Bboy" crowd was all breakbeats and dancing w/o rappers but nohting more than people giving shout outs over the mic. When the rappers took over in the "bboy" scene, they eclipsed all the other elements and then rap on record was born.
