Trap is a subgenre of hip-hop that originated in the Southern United States and is characterized by its use of heavy beats, and often dark or aggressive themes. This trend managed to reach the land of Dracula…. and Dracula embraced it.

Romanian trap artists often infuse their own cultural and musical influences into the genre. Apart from offering a fresh sound to the Romanian public, they are also a good representative of newer generations and their views.

We often find them addressing themes such as drug consumption, and success, in a way that reminds us more of hip hop, in some cases even punk.

Here are some popular songs that represent it

Ian x Azteca – Bag un Blunt

MGL x ZIOAN – Contact Fatal

Lino Golden – Panamera

In this song Lino Golden sings about wanting a Porche Panamera, after this song he got a Panamera.
