Trap lives in the contrast between heavy low end and busy top end. The 808 carries the whole track, tuned to the key and sliding between notes, while skittering hi-hat rolls keep the energy moving over a slow, deliberate snare. Get those two layers right and the rest is decoration.
The prompt below is built to land that balance on the first try. Paste it into your generator of choice underneath, or start from a reference track and reverse it into a prompt of your own.
What makes a good trap prompt
Name the 808 explicitly and ask for it to glide or slide, because that movement is the signature of the genre. Specify hi-hat rolls or triplets so the generator builds the rhythmic detail trap is known for, and pin the mood to something dark, moody or menacing. A stated key, like F minor, keeps the melody and the 808 in agreement.
Tweaking the starter prompt
Drop the tempo toward 130 BPM for a heavier, more sluggish feel, or push past 145 for hype, drill-adjacent energy. Swap the bell melody for muted guitar or a detuned synth lead to change the character, and add 'vocal chops' or 'ad-libs' if you want texture without full vocals. Asking for 'sparse arrangement' keeps the low end dominant.
Start from a track you like
If you already have a trap beat whose feel you want to borrow, run it through the reverse tool first. It detects tempo and key from the audio and infers the mood and instrumentation, giving you a prompt grounded in a real reference rather than a guess. You can then edit that prompt before generating.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this free?
- The prompt and editing tools are free; generating a full track here runs on credits, on licensed, commercially cleared models.
- What BPM is trap?
- Trap typically sits around 130 to 150 BPM, though the half-time feel from the slow snare often makes it sound closer to 65 to 75. The starter prompt uses 140 BPM as a reliable middle ground.
- Can I use the music commercially?
- Yes, we generate on licensed, commercial-cleared models (ElevenLabs, Google Lyria), so tracks you make here are cleared for commercial use.
