Molotov: ‘Remove the trap. Let reggaeton die!’, says the Mexican band harshly

Remove the trap (reggaeton dies). Remove the trap (put rock and roll). Remove the trap (reggaeton dies). Remove the trap (Molotov is back).

Thus, forceful and merciless, it is the hook to the liver that the Mexican group Molotov gave to the urban trap and reggaeton genres in its most recent premiere, which is precisely entitled What remove the trap.

Rockers go straight for the jugular to what they consider to be the clichés displayed by artists and followers of this movement that has taken over not only Latin America, but also the world.

With strong and direct lyrics, full of sarcasm, gossip and irreverence, the iconic Aztec band took inspiration from various themes that have recently drawn the attention of the public and the media, such as the confrontation between J Balvin and Resident, explained the Warner Music label.

Interestingly, in the sounds of his new song, Molotov combines urban touches with his classic rock sense. Another very striking detail is the use of the famous ‘autotune’, the digital tool that many of the artists of these genres use to improve their sound.

Molotov’s song aroused annoyance in a sector of the public and social networks. As usual, these disagreements served as a showcase to show it with the inevitable memes.

Some criticized that Molotov complained about the most popular genres today, others mentioned that the band is not updated and that it is pigeonholed to what was happening in music 30 years ago, when they began their career.

Of course, there were also messages of support for Molotov that, with irony and grace, filled the social networks, mainly Twitter. Many claim that Molotov’s new song is something like the famous meme: “It had to be said and it was said.”
