WTF is that little "hi" sound in trap music?

[It is a mystery]

So I heard this song new song BMF by Rick Ross recently and something caught me off guard with the beat. There's a "hi" sound in the beat. Is that a sample?


It's all over this track's beat
Now I'm hearing it in different songs too
What is that?????

It's a vocal but idk where it's originally from. Usually found in drum kit folders

Lil John - "Who You Wit"

If you listen to EDM/eletronic "trap" it's been all over tracks for a couple of years now

If you listen to EDM/eletronic "trap" it's been all over tracks for a couple of years now

and they got that from the west coast "function beats" movement. EDM trap didn't exist when function was breaking into the cacstream.

Never said EDM trap created it, just saying it's been on a lot of tracks for some time now.

Does anyone know if that sound is royalty free?

it's obviously some kinda vocal sample. why lex luger picked it randomly to throw it in, we'll never know, but it all works obviously.

It's too short for that.

 

[beaniemac]

the sample probably came from the drums lex luger used and it got on the beat by accident when he looped the drums.
