"Evolution From The Trap"

Evolution (n) - the gradual development of something, especially from a simple to a more complex form.

Trap Music and culture is more than beats and hooks. It’s about survival and it is something we all can relate to. The circumstances of life that are pitted against us  and how we are able to ascend beyond those things. It is about our daily battle to make our stories bigger than the school to prison pipeline. Bigger than what the media and society tells us to be. The journey itself, well, that’s evolution.  

 Welcome to The Evolution  from the Trap.  An exhibit that explores the simple and the complex. The duality of coming from nothing and that being the very thing that fuels your success. One's growth from their lower being to their higher self. The evolution of seeing how music and art has always been the narrative for the past, present and future of the community.   The Evolution  from the Trap  exhibit invites you to explore your duality,  your lower and higher self,  your journey and most importantly, your Evolution.
