Video - The Global Influence of Trap Music

Did you know that trap music, which originated in the early 2000s in the Southern United States, got its name from the term "trap house," a place where drugs were sold? The genre is known for its heavy use of 808 drum machines, creating those booming bass lines and crisp hi-hats. One of the pioneers, T.I., even named his 2003 album "Trap Muzik." Ever heard of "Mumble Rap"? That's a subgenre of trap where lyrics are delivered in a slurred, almost unintelligible manner. And here's a fun fact: trap music has become so influential that it even reached K-pop, with groups like BTS incorporating trap beats into their songs. Who knew the trap could be so global?
