[QUOTE="Phrozt, post: 1784020, member: 567069"] Hello kids, and welcome to your daily installment of: [SIZE=14px][B]Ghetto of the Day[/B][/SIZE] [B][SIZE=12px]Today's ghetto is:[/SIZE][/B] [B]"Trap or die"[/B] (by request): The real mystery of this phrase revolves around the word [B]"trap."[/B] It's clear that the "or die" part is basically equivalent to the "go big or go home" mentality... so either you trap, or you **** at life. Trap, as found in many recent songs by the upcoming "TI" is a reference to landing a really good record deal. We can infer this from the line: "First rule: if it's real, It ain't just a record deal, It's a trap." Also, from his latest album "Trap Music." He called it this to signify that he hit the bigtime. So, putting everything together, "Trap or die" for [B]rappers [/B]is basically the same as saying [B]"Get rich or die tryin;"[/B] Either you get yourself a fly *** record deal, or you're nothing. I hope you all have enjoyed your installment of GotD and will use your newfound knowledge to meet and experience new people in the ghetto culture! [/QUOTE]
