T.I. Reflects On 'Trap Muzik' 20 Years Later, Claiming 'King Of The South' + More

[@checkmatethalyricist]

This was my dad's favorite artist, he passed away in 2015 when I was 18 When the Paper Trail album dropped I was like 11/12 and my love for music was coming into full bloom, and I think Paper Trail was the first album I ever listened to all the way thru repeatedly, It was almost like EVERY song was my favorite song, one of his many classics I go to my dad's house and i'm messing with his stereo to try and get it to work and of course I go to playing my favorite album at the time. My dad walks in, hears me playing it and says, "whatchu know about that". And I look at him like "this is literally my favorite album right now" And that's when I learned T.I. was his favorite rapper, I knew he played alot of Urban Legend and Trap Muisk, King, but I never definitively knew that was his favorite rapper until that moment. For the remainder of the days God allowed him to have on this earth, our bond always grew stronger and stronger sharing our love for T.I.'s music. Tip is truly an amazing artist

I grew up in the Geto Boys, UGK, 8Ball & MJG era but I stopped listening to the South because I wasn't a fan of the whole 3-6, No Limit, Cash Money era. Trap Muzik is what brought me back. That's why TI always has my respect.

Man I'm from NY and moved down south at 16 some chick put this album in my hand and said he the future She was putting me on to down south music I laughed but then I listened and was like this dude can rap He get hype(still can't say crunk) got lyrics and some positivey sprinkled in Complete artist A urban legend for real

TI started the genre that is trap music in 2003. Jeezy took what TI did & brought the genre to new heights in 2005 with TM101. Gucci may not have been the rapper or made the music like the other two but Gucci was more influential as far being an A&R & having an ear to the streets. there was a point in time where you didn’t make it out the A without having a Gucci co-sign in one way or another. & then there’s Future who debuted in 2010 & was the bridge from the mid to late 2000s into the 2010s & changed the genre from being an act/verb into more of a sound. Future brought the autotune/melody/pain music that we’ve grown to love over the last decade or so. the 4 pioneers of the genre & ATL wouldn’t be where it is today without them

TI started a genre of RATING

[@qtippz]

- Tip started it, coined the term "Trap Music/Muzik" and laid the blue print down. - Jeezy along side his producer Shawty Redd gave the genre a signature sound and propelled it to a higher level. - Gucci became the A&R and poster child of the genre.

[@TheMelody15]

I always felt that T.I. and Jeezy style of Trap music was more suitable for the NY audience. Their style was the bridge for NY to take Southern Rap artists more seriously while Gucci stayed more "homegrown"

[@Marquetz88]

Young Thug created a new lane as well

I’m serious and trap muzik.. two of my favorite albums of all time

[@bc2394]

Was just sitting here talking with my moms. Trap Muzik the first album I ever remember hearing in her Neon 😂. Doin My Job one of my fav Tip records and I never knew Ye did the beat.

[@kristanoneal]

I could listen to Tip talk all day.... Now that's somebody who should write a book on his life or a movie... Because it would be Phenomenal

[@curiouslymavismade]

I remember when Trap Musik came out, it was such a crazy time in my life. I wanted to hear him talk about Bezzel off that album, that beat was so crazy and the verses were steller.

[@mistahogan5606]

Classic with eightball mjg and bun b 🔥🔥

[@_JaySho]

Maaaan I remember in 2007-8ish when I was 20-21yrs old, I was driving a ‘02 expedition, picked up a brand new set of 4’s to put on it…I must’ve played 24’s for a week straight 😂. That’s one of my favorite songs ever…been listening to T.I ever since I saw the video for “Im serious” on Uncut. T.I is definitely King of The South.

[@NadiaAli-x8m]

Talking about real estate with dj envy sitting there must be very funny 😂

[@Anim8tedreality]

My Favorite Songs on TRAP MUZIK: 1. Doin My Job: I use to work at Lenscrafters and blast this in the Lab when I was making prescription glasses. 2. Bezel: Bun B snapped on this record. 3. Let me tell you sumthin: This is the perfect summer time love song from a trap boys perspective. 4. Be Easy: Just solid advice with a piano.

[@michaelmoore486]

T.I. is a living legend! Don't ever front on his accomplishments!!!!

[@mitchlarry81]

I met TI when I worked for Hot 96.3. Gave me the Down With The King Gangsta Grillz before it was released, signed a poster, took a pic, and even called my sister and left a voicemail when she didn't pick up. Stand up guy. Not surprised at his success.

[@nickelbus7596]

I bet u heard dat shit and it blew ur mind. It had our whole jr. high going crazy 🤣

[@iamladyblack1188]

Good on TI for speaking to his OG’s/Elders. Such great respect we should all have for all of our predecessors… 3Stacks: “Well what does it really mean to be King”. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Exactly what I would expect him to say! And exactly why we love him. And just in case anyone cares Foreboding: fearful apprehension; a feeling that something bad will happen. Not at all what CTG meant!🤣

[@suavoman90]

My brother played this as his street soundtrack #RIPTIGER He played Trap Muzik so much that I fell in love with it... AND STILL DO!!!! Trap Muzik has to be his best album... IF NOT PAPER TRAIL, URBAN LEGEND OR KING!!!! #kingofthesouth

[@wolfgod6890]

I'm actually here in ATL visited the Trap Museum and it was Pretty Dope seeing Everyones Growth in their own way but still being able to Add to the Growth of Trap Music.

[@chris-cy5ed]

Its jus southern rap ? Or hip hop ? Or the whole country? How is it structure?

[@wolfgod6890]

@@chris-cy5ed it ls mostly Atlanta rappers and The 1s Who Runs and started Trap Music and Added to it. Along with Other Rappers like Rick Ross. Lil Durk. Etc I can u say they are Honorable Mentions
