Multi-platinum Hip-Hop icon, Tip “T.I.” Harris brought his Atlanta-based Trap Music Museum to Los Angeles with the Lil Trap House art exhibition and pop-up launch event hosted by Karen Civil.
As an ode to Trap culture, the Lil Trap House Exhibition, featured a collection of one-of-a-kind pieces in honor of the most influential Trap artists including T.I., Nipsey Hussle, YG, Pusha-T, Young Jeezy, Gucci Mane, Future, Rick Ross, Migos, Young Thug, Cardi B, and Nicki Minaj.
Going Through The Exhibit:
First, exhibitioners start in Grandma’s Living Room with guns, drugs, and money on the coffee table to ultimately symbolize protection and security to the hustlers while visiting. Viewers then step into Gucci Mane’s Lil Trap Kitchen, infamously mentioned in many of his songs with key items like scales, Pyrex measuring cups on the stove, and Atlanta fast-food chain J.R. Crickets on the counter. On the wall, many viewers will get a first-look at Pusha-T's Interactive Barcode with the classic My Name Is My Name album cover and on the opposite side will be Migos City “The Nawf,” a scaled down model of their Atlanta neighborhood and Young Thug’s “Snake Exhibit. As art-goers look around, they will see a 3D rendition of the remake of Future’s Dirty Sprite 2 cover, trap icon Young Jeezy’s Brick Wall, Rick Ross’ Mastermind portrait--a remake of his 2014 album--and the legendary T.I. Rubberband Man installation, which if you take a closer look shows the icon’s entire piece constructed by rubber bands. Before exiting, fans are reminded to bow down to the powerful women in the Hip Hop industry with Cardi B and Nicki Minaj’s Throne and stare in awe at the YG and late, great Nipsey Hussle's West Coast Tribute symbolizing unity in music and gang culture in Los Angeles.
