Trap Play ( at least from my perspective living in the Bay Area ) is somewhat a way of
life or living. Let me try to explain . . . If you don't know what Trap
Music is, it's basically
rap/hip-hop/gangsta
music you listen to while selling your
dope in da trap and usually/typically has a lot of heavy-bass throughout the
rap beat/instrumental. Trappers are basically hustling drug dealers and typically stay up late night or may even stay awake for multiple days in a row. If you don't know, drug dealers are really grimey and shady so you could probably imagine how they "play
da game" a.k.a. "live their
life". Ultimately, Trap Play is an action or way of living that a Trapper would normally carry out in their everyday lives. Ex:) killing somebody/back stabbing somebody/committing a robbery/killing a competitive Trapper who decided to sell on your block/area of town you would consider to be your hood/Etc . . . All of these actions are typically carried out by people who live da Trap
Life. Thus, back stabbing your brother (and/or) committing murder would be described as trap play since they "played" (lived) "da game" (
life) in a manner a "TRAPper" (dope dealer) would "PLAY da game" (live their
life). Hopefully that clears the air on what exactly "TRAP PLAY" is/means. If the definition I just provided for you still seems a little fuzzy to you, maybe the next sentence
will help you comprehend the meaning of "trap play".
*You should know drug dealers murk normal
people (just like you) if they find it necessary to do so*
Gangster #1: Aye brody, remember those gunshots we heard a couple of minutes ago? I just got a text from John Doe that the homie Kevin just got murked in South Richmond (California) by somebody who was driving in a white beamer on 22's with dark tinted windows. John said Kevin probably got shot because he was selling
dope on da wrong side of town and somebody wasn't gonna just let that slide (slide : , as in, - allow something to happen without consequence) without showing everyone what happens when you collect
money that they strongly felt
like should've been goin towards their own bankroll.
