Coon Tune 

A coon tune, is a type of song that is made to a “trappy” beat, which is then covered up by a bunch of annoying ad-libs, like “yah”, “skrrt”, “aye”, “uh”, etc. Most if not all coon tunes hold zero lyrical meaning, & take no real effort to make. Synonyms for coon tune, can be found in Mumble Rap, & Trap Music.
Person 1: Hey what kind of music do you listen to?
Person 2: Uh pretty much, Lil Uzi, Kodak Black, Lil Pump, & 21 Savage.
Person 1: Oh so you only listen to coon tunes? That's very disappointing, those types of songs are destroying what's left of real rap.

Coon tune 

As sung by ZZ Top and as used by gearheads/motorheads for decades a coon tune is a tune up without new parts. Clean the plugs, set the dwell and timing, adjust the carb. This was done before a race or a night of cruising that some action with other cars was expected. After the night out, the car was detuned for easier driving and better mileage. Don't know if it's racist or not but black folks back in the day generally didn't have a lot of bread. Don't hear it used much anymore probably because it sounds it.

An ingenious repair; a clever 'fix'. A more accurate interpretation and phrasing of the term "nigger rigged."
Under the moonlight, he plucked out a love song on a coon-tuned guitar, and I fell hopelessly in love.
