Trap is a hip-hop music style, which was formed in the southern United States in the early 1990s. It's a cool, street and casual hip-hop music. It is characterized by strings like movie interludes, cymbals played at twice or three times the speed or continuously on the heavy 808 drum, as well as brass instruments, woodwind instruments and keyboard instruments, creating a whole darkness and gloom.

The earliest "trap" in slang refers to the place where drugs are traded and the difficult living environment. The word originated from black hip-hop singers such as Atlanta, Dungeon Family, Outkast, Goodie Mob and Slum Mafia, who were the first singers to add "traps" to music content. Fans and media people call these rappers whose main lyrics are "drug trafficking" "trap rappers".
