Set against the backdrop of Atlanta's vibrant music scene, Trap History takes an introspective look at the birth and global impact of Trap music while also exploring how drug addiction, mass incarceration, and gentrification inspired the music genre. From past interviews and firsthand encounters with Trap music artists such as T.I., Gucci Mane, Jeezy, Future, and Migos, A.R. Shaw takes readers on a journey that is informative, entertaining, poignant, and inspiring. Trap History stands as the first book that firmly details the origins of the rap genre, Trap music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Deeper than trap
Reviewed in the United States on September 7, 2021
This book was much deeper than my initial perception. Trap History author A. R. Shaw takes readers on a journey deep into the heart of the south exploring the “trap” in Atlanta, trap music and the history of drugs and lifestyle that influenced it. Not just about a genre of music, Shaw dives deep into the history of trap along while featuring the backstories and interviews of some of the pioneers of trap music. A must read

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book but hard to read

I like the premise of the book but the Kindle edition is impossible to read, as all the words are strung together in an incoherent mess. Please fix this.

3.0 out of 5 stars Looks great but difficult to read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 24, 2024

The book (kindle version) looks great and seems like it would be a very interesting read, but words are merged and stuck together and very difficult to read, hence why I stopped reading after a few paragraphs.
