- Trap music has been the main subgenre of rap in the mainstream eye for close to a decade but times are changing and they're changing fast. The same men that were on fire just 2 years ago find themselves in a new position. #rap #hiphop

I’ll put it this way, if I hear an acoustic guitar in a beat in 2024, I’m turning that shit off. BORING
ong bro 😂

You funny af bruh😂😂

Been that way for a min
Throw Rod Wave in there. I’m sick of hearing him cry on the same 3/4 chord progression that goes up then back down.
Yeah people gas up this dude for literally crying over generic trap beats when he’s a millionaire and not spitting any bars at all.

The internet ruined hip hop. Every city had its own style, now everyone sounds the same to try and go viral and appeal to the masses. Everyone sounds like they’re from Atlanta. The beats too, all sound the same.

Facts
It's so sad when local/underground artists think that using the same flow is going to work.
Check my music out lmk what you think
People are always completely misrepresenting what is happening in rap music. You guys are thinking like there is an infinity of possible flows and every single person has to find their own flow. That is NOT AT ALL how music works.
You do not create a new rhythm, you lay down your lyrics in a fitting rhythm.
Look at how music instruments function. You do what serves the music best, insecurity about having to be "new" is HINDERING the creative process.
There's nothing wrong whatsoever with trap flows being repetitive - it gives a type of hypnotic feeling while also making sure the song is tethered to that subgenre.
@@hichaelhighers no not gone lie that same flow stuff is what makes a surface level artist the best musicians don’t recycle look at kendrick,drake,j.cole,jayz , kanye west they dont keep the same flow they are constantly challenging themselves as an artist tbe problem is the rappers get comfortable because they don't want to be the best they want to just not be broke and once they achieve that they dont care for making good music anymore but check my music out im passionat ab ts MNBJAY
@@hichaelhighers There is a difference between sounding similar and copying. The amount of excuses given for being unoriginal nowadays is borderline depressing 😪

Ive felt this way about Lil Baby since 2020
man I could never get into any of these rappers and now I know why because it’s just boring and repeated music from them nothing stands out and it’s loser
I was slow to lil baby but if you listen to him he actually says some stuff. He throws some gems and nuggets in there. He's one of my favorite new artists. I grew up on 90's rap fyi
Lil baby used to use some crazy nice now its just slow melodic crap, i think the problem with these rappers is that they are scared to experiment in fear theyre music wont chart
It only got worse after my turn
Trippin 2020 was his prime
I’m glad it’s dying one of my least favorite eras of rap you can tell most these artists were only making music for the money
Facts💯💯💯
the music is not liked for these reasons:
1) it is generic sound
2) those guys are actually connected to the streets. You suburbanites don’t like their music because it’s too street as well. (Don’t lie)
You’re more comfy with the trippie redds, juice wrlds uzi type characters. Which is fine.
@@iangarcia1585like you guys are probably skateboarders lol. Which is cool

@@BigWalka you just assuming shi
They just regular trap rappers they not no Travis Scott who sits in the studio thinking of new sounds and drum patterns
Travis has some sick production but his rapping is generic af, i could write that shit
@@Anklebreaker9not really generic, Maybe generic if you compare it to itself, but theres a reason people imitate him so much, his flow and lyrics stand out
@@gregperez-greene7408his lyrics don’t stand out
@@Anklebreaker9that’s because he’s making a song. Not trying to be the best rapper. Maybe you can write similar lyrics, but most likely can’t make a full song like him and make those lyrics fit in context
His stuff is just basic trap with more steps😭
One of the most boring waves in rap imo, luckily it’s beats out rage
I agree
It was good it just because over saturated
"Rage" evolved a lot since 2020
Became* it was good when it was fresh for a while
Chill in its prime shit was hard like the early to mid 2010s but then it over stayed its welcome lol
Idk but I feel like it’s cause we’re getting older. Our generation that listened to da baby, 21 savage, lil baby, young thug, Roddy rich, in highschool/college are maturing and I’m pretty sure we bump their old songs more than their new songs
Also most of those rappers fell off, are in jail or deceased
Facts bro I stay listening to the 2015-18 music. The new stuff not really my thing.
@@davidism8118facts bro, I feel the same way
Agreed bro I’m 28 now and shit just don’t hit the same as it did 7-8 years ago when I was in college
I’ll die on this hill, generic trap was never meant to last
Ever.....💯
Nothing is meant to last. Anything that lasts is kinda an accident lol.
NBA Youngboy is not generic trap. he is the most versatile artist in the game.He makes trap but also sad songs, happy songs, rnb songs, country and raegae inspired songs.
Cloud rap needs to come back I miss when trap was trippy like in 2013-2017
I got u xro
Still the best subgenre of rap
It is
Tru
It’s called plug music
I think its unfair to put future, trav and others into that specific category of melodic trap because by the time these guys were blowing up they were already superstars and had classics (Rodeo, DS2, Barter 6, Monster, Without Warning and others). Also Id say the likes of lil baby operate in that late 2010s trap sound which future and peers aren’t operating in.
Right. Future has a lot of rap sons
It's the lyrics bro raps like a middle schooler
Me personally, I would still put future in that same category as them simply because he started it back in the early 10s. Everyone else just followed suit. But now it's getting played out. Might be time to return to form.
NBA Youngboy is not generic trap. he is the most versatile artist in the game.He makes trap but also sad songs, happy songs, rnb songs, country and raegae inspired songs.
@@miles46100 future stood out and is still relevant because the production on his albums is still top tier, and he's always experimenting with new flows and deliveries. plus his music ages incredibly well. monster could released today and still sound just as good as it did 10 years ago, plus when future does experiment or change his style with hndrxx or wsdty it sounds great and doesn't come off as corny
And this is why Playboi carti is paving a lane on his own . Yeat , ken Carson . Etc , got that style of rap from Playboi , and I can honestly say he’s creating a new sound
Ehh not just playboi Trippie X Uzi made that lane for them he’ll even Pierre had something in it to

@@bigdawgcweiland literally gave him the preset and he hasent sounded anything like slayworld in years bruh. im not sure you even listen to them fr
Not trynna hate but the rappers you listen all don’t know how to rap. They just repeat lines and have fire beats. But I guess that’s what the “New Era” likes
@@bigdawgc and doing it better, not a pedo or scammer and isn't a fake gangster repping that cringe ass shit lmao. He bit the style and made it a million times better with an actual fanbase cuz them mfs aint ever making it out the underground due to a lack of effort or care that yeat showed to get to this point.

Ive been listening to the Flint scene artists alot lately. A lot of fun and good bangers coming out of that state
once the detroit n flint scene came in i was done w generic trap
We been listening to our music before that
Is simple the beat or production is the problem..producers nowadays are scared to make new sounds thinking rappers won’t use them so they make the same drum patterns and Melodie’s over and over again
Very true for Lil Baby and especially Polo G
True, but they are some innovative trap producers who understand that a lot of artists don’t want weird stuff, but something simple for them to lay vocals over. I think trap producers should start releasing beat tapes like Lofi producers, like Knxwledge, Madlib, FlyLo, MNDSGN.
With beat tapes, trap producers can put their weirdest ideas out and whoever will flock to it, will flock to it. Someone like Wheezy, Tay Keith or even ATL Jacob could pull this off
There's hella beat styles now wym I'm sure the newer styles will hit mainstream eventually
As a producer it’s not that we are scared people just don’t wanna hear the more creative things they rather hear that lil baby beat
Shout out to Trippie Redd for making such different sounding Trap music since the beginning. ALLTY, Mansion Musik, Trip at Knight, & Life’s A Trip all have a different taste of trap!
His style ain’t really different either it’s just GLO beats
idk why i never liked trippy besides love scars lmao, not hating i just dont like em idk
@@peeron6829 facts, still his best tape if you ask me lol
That’s what I love about trippie. He’s one of the only younger artists that’s actually making creative sounds that are timeless
And those projects are all ass😭
Feel like after 2019 and the pandemic it started getting worse and worse. Artists just “play it safe” and release the same generic music over and over again. There’s nothing fresh, new, and exciting going on in rap.
It's not just hip hop. There's trap R&B, trap reggaeton, trap beats on pop songs, trap beats on indie songs, trap beats on COUNTRY songs... even if you're a white guy from the suburbs like I am, it's been impossible to escape.

Underrated fr
Super underrated
This alot more accurate than "hip-hop is dead" because theres too many people in it for the art who are more focused on working rather than blowing up. We used to call this "the underground" until recently when that began to mean something else for some strange reason...
when Pooh Shiesty and big scarr passed rip I feel like that sound died off

Well trap had 3 popular sounds from the 2010s era you had the Travis Scott/ early Post Malone “Ambient trap” you had Future/Young Thug “Atl trap” and then the sound Pay is referring to is “Melodic trap” that’s NBA Yb, Durk & Polo G (to name a few) and I agree Melodic trap has run its course we had some good songs come from the sub genre though.
Yuh like there’re so many types of trap even that you can’t even say that trap is completely dying out or that a lotta the artists he mentioned are real trap artists. If anything the atl trap sound is coming back.
wb the late 2000s era with Gucci, Waka, OJ Da Juiceman, Future, etc??/

@@tbj4855 Kendrick is winning, but I agree
I think the problem is a lot of these guys like a clear, distinct aesthetic to help differentiate them as a character from other rappers. Yeat for a very long time was known for pretty much making one type of song over and over, but he has a character and personality associated with him and his music that kept it from going stale, so much to the point that he’s gone right back to that style after dropping 2093. What, if anything, is lil baby’s unique aesthetic appeal? Couldn’t tell you.
I like this, I think what’s happening is people want a sense of clan or something they wanna have a better connection to their fav rapper like different beats and sounds than anyone else basically people want a fictional character
aesthetic wise? isn't being the "street" rapper their whole swag tho most of em could learn something from 21 savage tho
@@bryson0206 but how do they each make that their own? 21 understands this but a lot of rappers don’t
@@bryson0206 not really they could expend it but since it’s the basic for most rappers it’s not that special. People want characters for real they own sense of drip,style,lingo etc. most these nïggas sound the same talking about the same shit

Nahhh you right on point with this one. Too many rappers out now with their own legit fan base and cities coming back with their own sound

Love this channel you have good commentary fr
Their core fans grew up. These guys are super young but they’ve been around for a while now. Plus the main theme in all of their music seems to be pain/sadness. Those teenage kids who loved that and related to it are grown now

I can promise you there’s millions of Americans alone who can relate, no matter their age
@@La.Ron9 I think he's talking about the teenagers who were into that kind of music and "Related" to it cause it was cool to. Not necessarily the people who genuinely related to it.
@@omegashenron8 ah okay my mistake. Keywords “core fans”.
@@La.Ron9 My bad, I did not see OP said "core fans". Not sure why you're having to correct me in that manner though. I wasn't rude in my response to you.
When you said 2023 felt like a reset, I been seeing online that in a decade it’s usually around the third year where the sound will change (80s, 90s, 00s being great examples).
Hip hops sound switched up like crazy in 1993. Wu-Tang, Tribe called quest, Black Moon, Snoop, Nas and 2003 was also a switch with Lil Wayne and TI mainly.
don't forget 2013 was the era of drake asap rocky Kendrick Lamar , expansion of Atlanta trap with future and young thug becoming mainstream
, beginning of travis scott, Kanye droppin yeezuz
Also 2003 was when Kanye dropped college dropout that alone was a huge shift in hip hop for the mainstream and underground

I’m genuinely so happy rage has become prominent. Saturation this saturation dat ion really care I loved both EDM and rap growing up so seeing the combination become prominent makes me happy
I honestly love your pov on this take, i feel those who already made their way and became main staples will continue to thrive bc they remain versatile..you have to know how to follow the trend while remaining true to yourself and having a consistent mindset of wanting more and exploring different styles..but imo that goes for any artist any genre.
most people that used to listen to them diverged into other subgenres such as Detroit rap Flint Rap Milwaukee rap you get what i’m saying i can’t think of other examples from those

Another good video Pay! Loved this one.
your analysis is spot on this is something i have also come to take notice off
The argument about each city sounding like its own thing is interesting. I have a book on mixing and Bobby Owsinski speaks about each studio back in the early days of audio engineering having its own speacific gear, methodology and engineers, so they would make radically different sounding records. There were fewer studios back then, so a city’s sound could be defined by the top dog of that area. Motown sounded like Motown for a very good reason. Same with EMI, later named Abbey Road. It’s cool to see history repeating itself for different reasons
yesss I just love that about hip hop if you go to different cities in California they all have they own sound whether socal/NorCal, or like different states Texas, Florida, Michigan, Chicago, Atlanta, shoot even them Arkansas mfs got they own sounds and flows to the way they produce music it’s really interesting and a nice thing to see.
My homie and I were just talking about this earlier today and he said the same thing you said quoted from that book 😂
@@XX-fh1lu 🤣🤣 divided by state/country lines, connected in venture and spirit
another banger of a video, you make the best hip hop content ngl
Man you hit a good point with people sounding like where they are from.
I used to say that all the time. You know where a rapper was from by how they talk and sound.
Agreed man - great video and analysis. Also to your point at 12:00 I think the Detroit sound is getting more mainstream. Every time I hear a Bossman Dlow song I think Icewear Vezzo is about to start rapping 😂 and Kendrick even pulled out the Sada Baby flow on Not Like Us
Travis Scott is different from these Lil Baby and Durks…if you listen to utopia you will find a bunch of experimental and new sounds in that album …different song structures…that’s why when it came out it got some criticisms because it was new and strange in their ears
this why i always listen to the underground, theres nothing special about mainstream rappers, no unique flow, no swag, no style or nothing

YOU PREACHING BRO🔥
Yb in this is crazy he actually has talent
NBA youngboy isn't generic trap at all lol I'm not even a fan of his but he has a very distinct Baton Rouge style when it comes to beats and lyrical content (being a bit too transparent and vulnerable to the point that it makes you cringe at times) but as someone who has been a trap fan since the genre really took off in the late 00s with Gucci Mane, OJ and Zaytoven I'm glad it's starting to die off. It went from a Southern hustler's theme music to soulless mass produced music that all sounds like one long song and only sounds good in a club environment where you're under the influence of some substance and a woman is twerking on you. The auto tune makes it worse a lot of the time tbh because I know rappers like lil baby can kinda spit but that auto tune makes every song of his sound the exact same.
thank you bro people be so slow
THANK YOU I only listen to underground and NBA Youngboy bc he is not generic trap. he is the most versatile artist in the game.He makes trap but also sad songs, happy songs, rnb songs, country and raegae inspired songs.
Honestly I think the modern trap wave was good from 2018 to 2020 but It got stale really fast. Well atleast I got bored of it fast because the songs got repetitive. Also for me artist like Lil baby, polo g, and lil durk just aren’t relatable to me and that’s a big thing that makes me wanna listen to a artist more when the stuff they talk about is relative to my life in a way

thank you bro and it’s really a low ceiling for this typa sub genre. they don’t add anything special, don’t get me wrong it’s good music but it doesn’t really last or stick with you
Dosent stick wit most people cuz they can't relate to all that street shii, for the people that can relate to th3 majority of it, it's special
My brother your locs are immaculate 👌🏾
A 5 year era that needed to end. I’ve always listened to Travis, Carti, Don toliver & more recently Yeat because their trap is more progressive and has other elements to it besides that basic formulaic sound
11:23 facts it’s because it’s become a hub/ hot spot for so long, that it becomes the baseline and ends up becoming a more generic overused sound. 12:03 I fw what u saying here too. A lot of valid points in this video man
I'm not sure it I put YB in that. I think his ability to switch flows and switch between melodic and rapping withing the same verse will carry him but he needs better production.

Shame his sound was garbage to begin with
Trap should’ve been left to just ATL rappers. Regional sounds is what keeps artists & music fresh. Now everyone is trynna hop FastMoney music from Detroit. Instead of riding a wave, perfect your sound or craft… NYC drill is a prime example…
I think trap is okay goin outside ATL but it should’ve mostly just stayed a southern thing cause trap was the soundtrack to the southern hustle. ATL would’ve still been the trap capital, Memphis would’ve made their scarier more low budget sounding trap music, Houston would’ve incorporated pitched down choruses and chopped and screwed cuts in their albums. Trap was invented cause of how regionally specific it was and it lost some of its soul when the mainstream didn’t wanna experience regionally specific sounds

I dont think its dead tbh i think its evolving into a new sound bc we got ppl like bossman dlow and rob49 and skilla baby thats bringing a new sound to trap music
I think the artist that you mentioned that are in the trap sound bit escaped it are where they are is because they have , like you said, added something different. To me the “difference” is that they’re more artistic and experimental and learn how to make it work even if it’s not by much. The artist u mentioned before can try something new from time to time but over like u said their music will still sound the same and they don’t evolve.
Thank God!
Honestly, music was so much better in the datpiff, spinrilla, my mixtapes era. So many household names of today was KILLING those music sites. & their music all had DISTINCT SOUNDS & it was almost like a badge of honor for the area. Now it’s just trap drums.

I've noticed this too. Lately I hear people get more excited about people like Kanye and Kendrick than Lil Baby and Polo G, and I am so here for it. Even more boundary-pushing artists like Yeat and Teezo Touchdown are getting more respect, which is something the music scene needed desperately
Generic trap? You're not wrong. Like you said, the ones who thrive do something special/new and that's honestly the way it should be.

I think it feels like this too because a lot of people didn’t not grow up into the sound or weren’t there for many of the moments. Hip Hop/Trap is just Pop Music now.

DaBaby really needed different producers since his beast were one of the reasons his music got repetitive
jetson actually made hella unique shi and was hella talented , its some of these washed rappers that think " mainstream " and "industry " standard catchy sounds is the cheat code to success, so they use similar beats when in reality there is no key, find fulfillment in exploring yourself through sound if u care abt music, if u want money as a prod or even artist then its more effective to be like everyone else but be seen more than everyone else, because if u do what already works and ur in the spotlight then people *dont need any reason to look at anyone else* , closed minds will find u innovative just for changing one damn chord progression or have 3 hi hate rolls instead of 2 , open minds can enjoy and even learn from almost everything
Melodic trap might be worse than the ringtone era, its so forgettable.
Honestly i don’t think there’s a genre of rap i hate more lmao some if the wackest music ive ever heard with them sad piano ahh beats
Nah that's where u finally heard the pain and soul. Jus some u could relate 2 if u been thru it
I noticed when NBA YoungBoy dropped Don’t Try This At Home. He really embraced a lot of his original Baton Rouge jazz like beats and I think he is starting to go back to that sound. I think you made a really good point with saying how areas are starting to sound like Memphis, Detroit, and all that are having their own unique sounds, you can also hear stuff like Mozzy using old West Coast inspired beats
Really good video!! 🎉
THANK YOU I only listen to underground and NBA Youngboy bc he is not generic trap. he is the most versatile artist in the game.He makes trap but also sad songs, happy songs, rnb songs, country and raegae inspired songs.
King von was a very versatile than all these rappers now
We don’t trust you was honestly the first trap album I’ve enjoyed front to back in a long time. Future is a pioneer and metro’s production is just hard to beat. It’s nothing crazy different from what we are used to getting from them, but it still sounds fresh because the quality is so high.
Ehh, Idk, it just feels like the regular metro formula, with tay Keith, and cardo sounding beats
Yeah ngl metro kinda let me down with the production everything felt like he could’ve did more expect for a few songs
This cap youngboy the most versatile when it comes to the trap style
Nah your not lying tho I feel the same way. I don’t know where music goes from here cause even the new unique sounds get played out to me like veeze or quanny. Regional music be sounding repetitive too like dmv, detroit, ny, etc
Bossman Dlow making trap music great again💯🔥🔥
Future, gunna , carti still doing fine
Cause their actually good the ones who are carbon copies of one another are fading off
Spaceghostpurrp is the light of this music shit iykyk he was ahead of the time and still is VampMoney305
You put more effort in your thumbnails than the video itself.
