QuoteSince his interview with Power 105.1's Angie Martinez last year, T.I. has remained adamant about his self-proclaimed title of originator of trap music. Still, over the last few months, his claim has been met with his resistance -- and after Gucci Mane took the honor of anointing himself as the inventor in an Instagram post on Saturday (April 7), T.I. refuted his claims on Monday (April 9).
"Ok,so.... AGAIN for the slow ones in the back...August 19th,2003 Birth of Trap Muzik & Only fools dispute facts!!!, "T.I. captioned his post, which included a picture of his sophomore album Trap Muzik. "FOH wit that Christopher Columbus ass...Look what I discovered,even though they was already here? ass shit!!!! WITCHO GOOD CAPPIN ASS."
On Saturday, Gucci Mane posted a picture on Instagram with the post reading, "The Day I Invented Trap Music #Guwop aka #TheEvilGenius#1017Ceo."
Last April, T.I. first dished out his candid thoughts as to who he deemed as the originator of trap music. "We're just gonna make sure we give everybody the best Tip album we can give them," he said during his interview with Martinez. "I'm going for Trap Muzik on this, 'cause a lot of people don't really know that I created trap music, like I got that old."

T.i. came out with trap music 1st. But it has elvoved so much since then and our current trap day music is more similar t ok the style Gucci brought to the game. So Gucci>>>>> and plus T.I. is insufferable now, so yeah. Lmao
:feelinmyself:
Everyone but TI >>
T.I. music wasn?t really trap...
If we go by what trap music is today
Just cuz you labele your music trap doesn?t make it ?trap?
I consider Gucci more of an innovator in trap music
D
Gucci is definitely the originator of true trap music.
UGK
So neither one of these 2.
Ti started it, but Gucci elevated trap music in a way that?s more impactful and iconic.
What is the true definition of trap?
Music you only listen to in a trap? Lol
TIs album never really had the trap sound
It just had the lyrics
And Guccis albums before he got signed are the only thing that resemble trap
King Gucci>>>>
And two of the most known trap producers (mike will and zaytoven) were discovered by gucci.
T-coon lost.
