post-trap:
Post-trap is a hip hop music genre that maintains the aggression and intensity of trap but emphasizes a greater degree of creative expression. in which artists departed from the simplicity and traditionalism of hip hop to adopt a variety of avant-garde sensibilities and diverse influences. Inspired by trap's energy and DIY ethic
Dis bout artsy farsty trap beats correct?
rock music been using this naming system for a minute (postpunk, posthardcore etc) its kinda unfair to ppl like trav and carti when they gotta get lumped in with trap like gucci or TI when they're adding a new spin on it
it would be fair to try and create a sub-genre if there were enough examples of it. we are mostly just subjected to generic garbage.
too few artists actually follow this pursuit, to the point where when we do see it, it feels more like an elevated individual than a whole new genre.
They always wanna romanticize avant garde and psychedelia in hip hop/trap and call hood s*** simple and uncreative 🙄

This thread for instance ? White kids are always trying to explain how guys like carti And Travis are part of some avante punk ambient psychedelic trap high art movement and say things like “more artistic expression” and thinking these sounds are deserving of more merit or admiration or some s***. When in reality you’re just discrediting other great artists and styles and overvaluing you’re subjective idea of what makes something good art

No rap albums sounded like Rodeo before it in the mainstream

I agree with that but that doesn’t mean it’s inherently a higher degree of artistic expression or better
