Gassed Up

Plugg is a trap-derived hip hop subgenre that rose through online, producer-led scenes—especially SoundCloud—in the mid-2010s. It is known for minimal, “compact” drum programming, sub-heavy 808 basslines, and bright, sparkly melodic loops (often piano, bell-like keys, airy pads, or icy synth leads). Vocals are typically melodic and laid-back, leaning into Southern rap cadences and Auto-Tune, with hooks that feel floaty and repetitive over spacious low-end.

Melodic rap is a style of hip hop that prioritizes sung or sing‑rap cadences, tuneful hooks, and emotive toplines over strictly percussive flows. It blends trap‑based drum programming and 808 sub‑bass with pop‑leaning melodies, R&B harmonies, and heavy use of Auto‑Tune as an expressive effect rather than mere pitch correction. Themes often address love, heartbreak, aspiration, loneliness, and personal struggle, delivered with catchy refrains designed for streaming‑era replayability.
