The trap muzik sound was ALREADY getting old back when Jeezy dropped TM101. But the music still exists today!!! (ex. chief keef)

As a hip hop fanatic, I cannot understand how the general public is not tired of hearing the same beat OVER and OVER and OVER.

For example, Tribe called quest and Pete rock had the jazz thing going but that faded out.

Dr dre and west coast had the G Funk era which faded out

Jay-z and blueprint 1 had the soul era which faded out..

BUT THIS trapping music era still exists til this day. Maybe its because its the easiest form of hip hop to replicate and such. But WTF man. Stop this shyt

:myman: you just answered you own question

The trap subgenre has alot of different sounds to it and I think people get caught up with sayin "all the beats sound the same", I'm not sure how anybody could confuse what Mike Will is doin now to what Shawty Red was doin on TM101..or what Zaytoven does for Gucci to what Drumma Boy does for Gucci.

4 tracks from Gucci's Im Up mixtape...

Zaytoven


Young Chop


Lex Luger


Drumma Boy


These beats couldn't be anymore different but still fall under the same "trap" umbrella..as long there's different producers puttin their own twist to shyt it's gonna keep winning (at least in the south)

Most of the dudes that PRIMARILY use trap beats lyrically SUCK like Gucci, Jeezy, Waka, OJ, French, Yo Gotti, and 2Chainz. They use the energy of music and personality to get over having below average bars and weak flows.

Soulful music has not faded away and Jay-z didn't really start it, he brought it back.
