I’d argue that dubstep has brought even more excitement to it, but trap is what brought it out from obscurity and into popularity. As the word “trap” went from describing lyrical content to becoming more commonly associated with a style of production, Kanye West’s Yeezus was simultaneously inspiring a digression in sound through its experimentation with industrial music and subsequent popularization of the sentient 808 drum. The big man was in Belgium over the weekend for Tomorrowland Music Festival, and now footage has emerged of him bringing the Shaq Attack to a mosh pit. Notably, just as the increased relevancy of the hip-hop mosh pit was marked by an abstract shift in attitude, it was also catalyzed by a much-easier-to-track shift in the sonic direction of the music itself.
When things get popular really in any type of scene that cultivates interest, people tend write about it online.
O’Neal, 47, was spotted at the center of another mosh pit.
But let’s not rely on anecdotes because they mean absolutely nothing on a forum where anybody can lie about anything.īut the difference between you and I is that I can present a logical thought process and/or provide some kind of documentation to back up my claim. Retired NBA great and current Turner commentator Shaquille O’Neal has not-so-quietly developed a penchant for mosh pit activities. I know the scene as well, I used to be pretty into it.
