Gunna’s Prettified Psychedelic Trap Music

Trap music is, in a lot of ways, about numbness. Much of the time, the rappers from the dominant Atlanta rap strain are talking about their past lives in the trenches and the traumas that they've endured and inflicted. There's a calloused, wizened seen-in-all quality to a lot of this music, good and bad. And a whole lot of the music is about drugs — both selling and consuming — so it's literally about numbness, about the substances that allow some people to cruise through unendurable days on zonked-out autopilot. Thanks to its years of commercial hegemony, another kind of numbness has crept into Atlanta trap music: The oppressive eternal recurrence of a genre stuck in a rut. Future and Migos and Gucci Mane have all made incredible music in the not-too-distant past, but thanks to the constant grind of their recording schedules, they've mostly lost whatever spark they had. There's not a whole lot of incentive to keep innovating once you've found a comfortable cultural sweet spot. So a
