Their search began with trying to pin down the first hip-hop reference they could find to вЂњtrap,вЂќ the term that their boss helped bring to mainstream consciousness. But behind the scenes, members of the Grand Hustle team were trying to find an honest answer. That public back-and-forth was all bravado that provided a decent basis for a few op-eds. That event sparked a lively Instagram debate between Tip and Gucci Mane, in which the former called the latter вЂњthat Christopher Columbus assвЂќ over who was trap musicвЂ™s true originator.
