chasewalkedthat s*** slapped tho tbh i was rly banging rl grime. i still f***s wit baauer. i don't think it was a problem tho cause mfs just called it "edm trap"
that era was WOAT. Crackers co-opted the Harlem Shake into having a seizure.
Dj Burn One had a rant on twitter and coined the term "Cracker trap"
needless to say, sometime after that people stopped calling that s*** trap altogether.

Not Like JosukePurist In the sense that you’re refusing to acknowledge changes.
It’s fine to be a historian, but words literally adopt new meanings all the time. To try to fight that is like trying to push a boulder up a mountain when the vast majority of people don’t even care that much.
Also I literally acknowledged servers times itt the history of trap lol. So how am I not looking at the history or not researching?
Also how many mainstream artists actually label themselves as trap? Most of the artists today in hip hop don’t even like placing labels on themselves lol. It’s usually the FANS who talk about if they trap or not and that’s based on the sound.
Refusing to acknowledge people trying to change the meaning of genre because they can’t find another label for it and they hear “beats” used from the original genre. Ok buddy

Not really it’s literally hip hop
Why do you RYM hipsters need to classify f***ing everything so you know which hip hop is acceptable for your indie rock brains to listen to instead of just accepting that hip hop is a beautifully diverse genre
I mean I know why but
nah you're buggin
there does not exist an insatable need by nerds to create subgenres, that's a natural process in every aspect of life. when a niche needs new language to define it, it happens.
YOU are the hipster mf that is trying to gatekeep music. you are genuinely arguing that a song like old town road and a song like, idk. cold and lonely by Ka are the same genre. you sound dumb

DirtyTreesplease show me a song with arpeggiated hats. He clearly don't know what an arpeggio is
U can arp in the same key making the high hat roll
Jan 20, 2022·1 replyinsertcoolnamehereno 808s. no "tRaP" snares or kicks or rolling hi hats like that.
Like...niggas was in high school listening to Shawty Redd, Zaytoven, and Lex Luger beats.
There are 808 hits throughout the song lol
And kicks/snare sounds itself could pretty much be in a trap beat, s*** just has less agressive hat pattern with more subtle, shorter rolls.
Again, not the most typical trap style beat out there, but the basics are kinda there.

arpeggiated may not be the right term but as far as rhythm is concerned, yeah. That's what he was getting at.
Everybody aint music majors or that well on music terms but c'mon you get what he was getting at.

nobody has used trap as a catch-all in the way he describes in years

Listen to the title track and Vision and then get back at me brodie.

More gatekeeping in hip hop is a good thing
And yes obviously LNX makes pop music and Ka is hip hop

And to your last paragraph none of them call themselves trap. Literally blogs/critics and reviewers label it trap FOR THE SAME REASON YOU ALL DO. Cause of the “sound/beat” they hear. These niggas don’t know what the f*** to call a lil yachty album or Uzi or gunna or carti or Kodak or Ken Carson or Travis scott. Hell I don’t even know at times. But that doesn’t mean Ima insert them as trap

Raining Blood by Slayer and idk, random Arctic Monkey song are also the same genre - rock. Categorizing is not needed tbh.
Jan 20, 2022·1 replyinsertcoolnamehereBut also 808s been preceding 'trap music'. Miami bass music was full of that s***. You wouldn't call that trap because it wasn't the subject matter.
This video calls them "trap hi hats" but the example song sounds like an 80s miami song lol
