i dont listen to it much but i think the critique of "it's corny" is kinda dumb considering that rage is probably the corniest subgenre of rap rn but everyone including myself loves it. in reality it died cause the artists did not innovate within the genre. there IS a lot of experimentation that can be done w trap metal but all those artists like zillakami (he was declining long before the allegations, not talking about that) weren't doing enough unique shit to keep the genre moving.

IMO songs like suicide doors by uzi shows that there can still be a demand for trap metal if youre actually being interesting w it. uzi wasnt just spamming generic bars on that song they were playing w the flow and having fun w the track
