rayrayRefusing 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
Dawg niggas like Lex Luger (and others) sound became so popular and copied at one point that it became the trap sound. Fans decided that. Nobody literally sound down like “duuurrrh I can’t think of another name so it’s trap!” And even non-trap artists adopted those beats, but “trap” was still tied to those beats and that sound. This is why today it’s still associated with it. But we all still know what the original is…
It’s clear as day, you don’t want to accept it that’s fine G. I ain’t finna keep talking in circles tho. Be blessed!
(Kinda funny tho having a prince avy cus of how “Pop” also changed, but that’s neither here nor there)

OPJan 20, 2022chasewalkedidk. i feel like if a rap artist put out a song with a bunch of edm sounds niggas would be like "lol so this man making edm now?" and the same arguments would ensue.

He was never anonymous
He is definitely talented
His music was good for what it was
His first album wasn't even pop or r&b just more ambientThis entire forum is just full of haters for real. All you guys do is f***ing b**** and complain all day holy moly

!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4Co_H50hUw&ab_channel=asapfergVEVOI remember this too lol. Yea I mean it happened with drake too with dancehall and even with Uzi recently with his last single. But EDM music doesn’t really emphasize on subject matter. More so just that electronic sound. But I see where the argument could start though so you do have a point
- Jan 20, 2022·2 repliesrayray
It’s crazy cause trap music is I think the only genre with this issue. I can’t think of anything in rock that had the same issue besides death metal and grindcore. Because subject matter played a huge part as much as the instruments did too
it also has a lot to do with the gentrification of the genre. there is no other genre that had its roots in extreme poverty--specifically affecting black communities and pushing dope and s*** to pay the bills--and now is the #1 genre in the world to the point where every other genre and act has in some way shape or form been influenced by it.
you can look at jazz as a parallel but it is nowhere near as accessible

he was a hack whose whole shtick was 'coming out of the shadows' and was explicitly picked up by blogs for his "off kilter" r&b

Bernie X 🙊Jan 20, 2022Yea
S*** is trap production though so I see why ppl make that connection
- Jan 20, 2022
I've seen so many dummies on here pass off something as generic trap and be completely wrong so s/o to Earl for tweeting about this
Jan 20, 2022insertcoolnamehereListen to the title track and Vision and then get back at me brodie.
You keep hammering in the same point when you're just wrong lol.
Off topic but tbh Earl over trap-esque beats is the s*** fr
SRS was fantastic but i was missing him on some fatter instrumentation like 2010 or Vision
s/o Black Noi$e too his production is really fire

I swear to God if you somehow bring prince into this dumbass conversation. And pop music is legit just “popular music”. Yea there is a method and ways to strategically create a song meant to reach pop but that’s another discussion. Listen nice chatting, and it’s not that I don’t want to accept it. It’s just that it’s wrong. It’s what music critics do with every single genre and the reason people defend it the most with trap right now because that Is one where subject matter is just important as the beat when being created so you can agree with white people and music industry dorks pushing this s*** but I’m not. I know what trap music is and I know what music being influenced from trap beats is. Enjoy the rest of your day
