Trap Latino
Trap latino, or Latin trap, is Spanish-language trap music: slow, bass-heavy hip hop with rattling hi-hats and half-sung, often Auto-Tuned vocals.
It borrows the 808 bass, snare rolls and dark mood of trap from the US South and adds the slang and melodies of reggaeton artists. It took shape in Puerto Rico, broke through around the mid-2010s and spread across Latin America and Spain soon after. Compared with reggaeton it is slower and less built for dancing, with lyrics that lean on street life, drugs and sex.
Artists it is known for: Bad Bunny, Anuel AA, Bryant Myers.
