Trap is a style of hip-hop music that originated in the Southern United States in the early 2000s. It is characterized by its dark, aggressive lyrical content and sound, which often incorporates 808 sub-bass kick drums, double-time hi-hats, layered synthesizers, and 'TRAP' snares. TRAP music has become increasingly popular in recent years, with many artists such as Migos, Future, and Young Thug incorporating elements of TRAP into their music.
