was relistening to the sgp instrumental mixtape harkat recommended me the other day on good headphones and was like...woah
it just felt like on such a higher level to all the other instrumentals in his kind of genre, so much weird bell ringing sounds and stuff like that deep in the mix
guess i don't listen to enough instrumental trap to make that judgement but it sounded a lot more but it felt like he was using the template a lot deeper than lex lugar clones

well i guarantee the atlanta police watched that documentary and saw the various traphouses, guns, and drugs that the rappers were walking around with like it was nothing. it probably doesnt look good for the city. it makes it look like the police have no idea what they are doing. and i can say that it takes them a long time to even find a traphouse and raid it (Key's traphouse was boomin 24/7 and you could smell the weed from the street and the cops just raided it last week, Future also filmed a video there which exposed it even more) but they dont want that image to be broadcasted to millions so i think they started really cracking down. the biggest artist in atlanta right now is definitely Migos so i think they were trying to make and example out of them.
and i thought showing off all your drugs and guns on camera was stupid in the first place

it's interesting that you find it stupid. I thought it was just normal in america or something! at least in the rough parts of a city

The Migos bit with AKs out in the white upperclass neighbourhood was probably not on for the police yeah.
But the cop with the 'grudge' against rap is probably not that good a look either.
All very interesting. Not least that bit where they state the crackdowns didn't work in the first place, like they where inviting the police 'round. I think it was in the bank roll fresh part.

its amazing how universal trap shit is now
From where im standing, it's so embedded that its already 100% the "music of the time" the same way rock and roll shit is stereotypically the music for he 60s. Like the bit in the last x-men film when wolverine got transported back to the 70s and he strolls out on the street and immediately theres black ladies with afros and funk guitar licks bouncing out, and its this eye-rolling ultra typical image.
When they make scenes like that in the 2050s, the 2010s will be all really high-def, AZAEproductions vibe slow mo video filmed from the backseat of a car filled with smoke, people rocking Versace style print t shirts and hat rolls and autotune. The same way 50s charicatures do the gunfingers motion with their hands and slick their hair back, 2010s caricature cool people will do trap music video hand motions (the type that are painfully cringe when white guys do em)
90% of the popular aesthetic comes from this trap shit it seems like
fuck me im really smart

what, like tumblr/American apparel ads where chicks are posed to look like the picture the serial killer takes before he murders them?
is that an example of the rapiness?

yeah i was thinking like a lot of trap is like grime, like people using presets and limited ability to make bangers but he seemed like he had a lot more ability
