Ledger and Lead

Trap rap with ominous mid-tempo bounce, hard-hitting 808s, clipped hi-hats, and a minor-key synth riff; verse rides sparse drums and cold bass, pre-chorus tightens with rising filtered noise, chorus snaps into chanty half-time with stacked doubles and gang ad-libs. Add vocal stutters on key phrases, tape-stop accents into the hook, and a brief beat-drop pause before the final chorus. Mix is dark, punchy, and glossy, with close-mic lead vocals and wide ad-lib throws., rap
