Tag: Michigan Trap

Michigan Trap is a sub-genre of hip-hop that emerged in the early 2010s, primarily from Detroit. The production often features deep basslines, mallet sounds, and piano keys, influenced by Bay Area hip-hop’s laid-back grooves. Themes include gang activity, crime, and cyber-crime, with punchlines and repetitive rhyming. Artists like Babytron, Tee Grizzley, and Rio Da Yung OG have popularized this style, which blends traditional trap elements with a unique Michigan flavor. Though not for some, it’s been gaining ground in the hip-hop scene over the years.
