Rap is one of those musical styles that has evolved from underground, and what is considered a “rap” genre to mainstream today. Over the years, there have been many changes in what is deemed a rap tune and where it falls on the chart and what the difference is in the various versions of rap songs that are produced. The reason we are looking at this topic is so that we can get a better understanding as to why, when, and how certain rappers alter their music and how it is perceived by listeners. So, let’s get started.
Hip hop and rap are very similar. Both are made up of basic beats, lyrics, and rhymes. They are both written by famous and talented artists that are considered “conscious” or popular. Hiphop was probably born in the United States, while rap was probably born in the United Kingdom. Both are basically made up of basic lyrics and beats with complex lyrics, just like a song by James Morrison.
The difference between these two types of music is that hiphop usually has a “dance song” to it, while trap usually does not. Hiphop usually goes for about three minutes before it gets into a “flow,” where as trap goes on for longer. The flow of a trap song is usually something that is repeated over again, whereas a hiphop song is usually more “natural.”
What is the difference between rap trap and hiphop? Basically, rap music is the type of music where a rapper states lyrics based on real life experiences and situations, while hip hop is more of a style of music. Hip hop is a slang for music, but it is written about and created as if it were spoken word. It is said to be anywhere from seven to fourteen bars long. While most rap songs only go for four bars or sometimes less, hiphop can go on for as much as thirty or forty bars.
Hiphop is probably the most popular form of rap, because the majority of people who listen to rap music are doing it because they want to be hiphop. However, the trap is growing in popularity because even those that don’t want to be hiphop can still enjoy rap’s great beats and rhythms. So, what is the difference between rap trap and hiphop?
Rap trap is a version of hiphop that uses pre-recorded audio from around the world. Some versions of the song may be from Spain, Mexico, Brazil, Germany, England, and more. Some artists may even be partially based off of certain rappers or groups that they like, due to their popularity and style of music. What is the difference between rap trap and hiphop? More of a question than an answer.
