Fetty Wap's 'Trap Queen' is a hip-hop anthem that celebrates a loyal and loving relationship with a woman who is not only his romantic partner but also his accomplice in the drug-dealing business. The term 'Trap Queen' refers to a woman who assists with trapping, slang for dealing drugs, indicating a partnership founded on both love and shared illegal activities. The song highlights the wealth and lifestyle that comes with such a business and illustrates a lavish life of cooking drugs, spending money, and aspiring for luxury items like Lamborghinis.
The journey begins with an introduction to the 'Trap Queen,' a woman who captivates Fetty Wap from the moment she enters. The connection is instant and multifaceted; they bond over shared business ventures and romantic involvement. The excitement and pride Fetty Wap feels for his partner's skills and dedication are palpable as he celebrates her ability to handle the business's demands and her prowess as a supportive partner.
As the relationship develops, there's a sense of aspirational living. Fetty Wap and his Trap Queen are not just surviving, but thriving and dreaming big. Their ambitions climb to new heights as they set goals to acquire matching Lamborghinis and indulge in the wealth they've amassed from their endeavors. The undertone here is one of shared success and material proof of their accomplishments.
However, the emotional contour dips as the reality of their lifestyle brings in haters and challenges. Despite external animosity and the risky nature of their business, there is a sustained note of defiance. Their attachment to the money and the thrill it brings is unwavering. Fetty Wap acknowledges the hate as a byproduct of success and rebrands them as fans, showing a refusal to let outside perspectives dampen their spirits.
The journey concludes with a juxtaposition between the highs of love and partnership with the rough edges of their illicit trade. Though the trappings of wealth and success are intoxicating, there's an inherent danger in glorifying such a hazardous lifestyle. Nonetheless, Fetty Wap's commitment to his Trap Queen and their lifestyle choice remains firm as he closes the song with expressions of loyalty and contentment.
