TI's "Lil Trap House" Museum in Los Angeles

By

As a resident of the Crenshaw community I got the opportunity to visit the With the Lil Trap House when it was just a pop-up shop. Now the “Lil Trap House” is on the verge of taking a life of its own. They are in talks of giving the museum that is located in Los Angeles a redo. From talking with the managers of the museum they said that the plan for this museum is to make it a community staple and tourist attraction,  were people all around the world can visit and leave knowing that they learned the reason why these Los Angeles hip-hop legends are so important to the people in the West Coast.

When I was told that this museum idea started in Atlanta I went to do my research. In 2018 Atlanta legend TI opened his Trap Music Museum in Atlanta. A couple of months later he decided to open a new installment of the museum in Los Angeles called the “Lil Trap House”. When it originally opened it focused on a couple of LA artists that are at face front of the LA music culture 

In recent months TI decided that he wanted to rebrand the Los Angeles installment of the Trap Music Museum to tell the history of West Coast rap music. After the unfortunate passing of West Coast Legend Nipsey Hussle, he felt like there was a story to tell about all artists that have made an impact. 

Growing up I listened Snoop Dogg, Tupac, Nate Dogg, NWA, Eazy E,E-40, Too Short, Mac Dre & Ice Cube.  This was the perfect time to represent the impactful history of LA music. With this new branding you won’t only get a history of artists from Los Angeles but you will get the story of artists from the Bay Area and other cities in the California region. The lists of artists you will see in this museum are 

Kendrick Lamar
DJ Quick
Dom KENNEDY
Mack 10
Suga Free
Schoolboy Q
03 Greedo 
Dr Dre 
Xzibit
Krondon
Kurupt 
Cypress Hill
& Many more

When the museum opens its doors on January 1 2020 you will receive the experience of a lifetime.

Ten Underrated Nate Dogg Choruses

By
1. The Streets Featured Artist | WC Album | Ghetto Heisman Year 2002 Nate Dogg, like a lot of songs he sings on, makes the song. The beat from Scott Storch, sounds like a 2001 leftover and creates WC's biggest hit as a solo artist. Not too many outside of LA will remember this one. 2. Look At My Eyes Featured Artist | Obie Trice Album | Cheers Year 2003 Cheers is the most underrated Hip-Hop albums of all time. Slept on as it came out the same year on the same label 50 Cent's Get Rich Or Die Tryin'. Cheers is the best album to come out of the Shady-Aftermath factory not named 50 Cent or Eminem, and that includes all members of G-Unit and D12. Look At My Eyes, produced by Dr. Dre at the tale-end of Dr. Dre producing like Dr. Dre, is one of the last Nate Dogg/Dr. Dre combos we will ever see, and just as always, it doesn't miss. 3. I Don't Like To Dream About Getting Paid Featured Artist | Dogg Pound Album | Tha Dogg Food Year 1995 Early Nate ...

Lil Trap House and The Community

By
My family and I have visited the Trap Music Museum many times because my wife is from Atlanta.  We reside in Los Angeles, CA and I'm a local business owner in the city. This past weekend, my wife, my kids, and I decided to go to Atlanta to visit my wife's family.  Once we got down there we decided to go to the Trap Music Museum because that's one of our favorite museums to visit when we’re in town so of course we had to go check it out for ourselves.  My wife and I are big fans of TI. When we went to the museum, the first thing you saw was a 2Chainz installation of his pink trap house. When you go further into the museum they give you a brief history of how Trap Music was created and the symbolism behind it.  You also get to see the different awards TI has one over his rap career. While viewing the museum I saw a poster that illustrated that TI was opening up a permanent museum for the Lil Trap House that was originally a pop-up. We got a chance to vi...
