Trap Music

Trap is a branch of rap music, and is about life on the streets. Trap lyrics are about manufacturing, selling, and using drugs, as well as some other aspects of life on the street. The name comes from the word "trap" which refers to a place where drugs are sold illegally. It originated in the Southern United States. Atlanta, Georgia is typically credited for being the birthplace of trap music. Some pioneers of trap are Young Jeezy, TI, and Gucci Mane. TI coined the term with his 2003 album "Trap Muzik." Trap music is known for having fast paced, high bpm beats with a lot of bass. It originated in the late 1990s - early 2000s, and became popular in the late 2000s - early 2010s.
-Just because a rap song has a high bpm doesn't mean it's trap music. Its about the lyrics: If they aren't rapping about the trap, then it isn't trap music.
-Trap is one of the most popular genres of music, even though most people don't know the meaning behind the lyrics and know nothing about life in the trap.
-Later on, in the early 2010's, drill rap originated in the South Side of Chicago as a branch of trap music.

Ithaca College School of Music

The Ithaca College School of Music is comprised half of ridiculous talent and half of compete insanity.

Pretty much every faculty member is an urban legend and a ridiculous virtuoso. The faculty includes, but is not limited to: John "tavakididama" White, Pablo "The Most Interesting Man in the World" Cohen, Bradley "Sass" Hougham, David "Eroica Dynamite" Pacun, Frank "Keep It in the Family" Campos, Dave "The Wizard" Unland, Ed "Pianoforte" Swenson, Mark "Look at my pecs" Radice, Jeffrey "Hector Berlioz" Meyer, John "He's not so much a pianist as he is a state of mind" Stetch, etc.

The music school intentionally removed all of the vending machines some years ago because they realized their students would not leave the building otherwise.

The school of music is at its classiest during its annual Christmas concert, "Ford Fest." On this special day, the practice rooms transform into an open bar and opium den.

All in all, a utopia of musicality.
