So trap music is super popular the past few years and mostly it is all thay hip hop radios would play.
Post all your favorites here. I need some suggestions. I am like bending over backwards to attempt to like this sub genre but I am just not feeling it so far.
I love EDM trap btw. Might head over to Electronic section and made a thread on that.
Okay so a short history of trap for those that don't know.

Trap music is a music genre that originated in the early 1990s in the Southern United States.[1][2] It is typified by its aggressive lyrical content and sound, where the instrumentals are propelled by 808 kick drums or heavy extended sub-bass lines, double-time, triple-time and other faster time division hi-hats,[3] layered synthesizers, and "cinematic" strings.

I have two friends that ****ing love this sub genre of rap and I just don't really get it. I want to put together some music for one of them so that's why I was looking for suggestions. I also wanted to explore it a little more myself to see if maybe I could find something decent in all of the trash I have heard so far.
If you haven't heard this song at least once, you probably don't have a pulse. It gets played so damn much. It was also on Kanye's Life of Pablo and just hit Billboard number 1 a few weeks ago. The last rapper to hit number was Jay-Z back in like 2000 something with that NY song with Alicia Keys.

Well, I just watched the video and I already liked that song but the video makes me love it so much more. I feel like it is the only trap song that I'm really into. I will go through this thread and give the others a listen to see if I find any others that pique my interest.
Also if you are posting youtube vids in this thread. Please put the artist and title above the video and also be mindful of how many you post in one post. If it is like more than three then put them behind a spoiler tag. Thanks. It helps.
