Bursting the Negative Bubble Encircling Drill Music

Music is a universal language that connects earthlings worldwide. It is a form of vocal art that seeds a state of immense euphoria and pleasure. Stretching from soft, instrumental, soul music to hard metal, rock, pop, and trap music, music genres are colossal. Each music genre has its own theme and rhythm, which the listeners relish according to their moods and personality.

One popular and commercially successful genre of music that is prevailing amongst the youth is drill music. The drill is a trap music style that is defined by its dark, violent and nihilistic lyrical content and ominous trap-influenced beats. Drill music is often thrashed with negative comments and is commonly encircled with stereotypes due to its dark and violent theme. It is largely claimed that it fosters negativity and gives way to gloom and melancholy.

Further drill is whacked with negative stigmas which say that this violent music genre has increased suicide risk, drug abuse, vandalism, violence, poor family relations, sexual violations, street gangs, celebrations of warfare and many other social predicaments. It is also claimed that violent themed songs develop. However, there is no scientific or medical proof backing these allegations. Having said that, these critiques fall apart and fail miserably as they do not consist of any logical or practical backing and substance.

Some antagonists have gone too far in condemning drill music to claim that it is associated with devilish chimes and satanic verses. They articulate that harsh and loud music coupled with the distorted guitar invites evil to wreck their living lives. Again it is evident that these claims are worthless as no study or research is confining them.

In contrast to that, drill music lights up the mood and drags the low-spirited and melancholy soul from the gloom into the more bright, vibrant, and lively world. It elevates the mood and induces a sense of excitement, pleasure, and euphoria. Further, it is also known to unwind the incapacitated mins and de-stress the subconscious. The bold yet dazzling lyrics induce encouragement and happiness. The strong propensity of drill music lures the listeners to shake a leg and whirl away worries of circadian pressures that burden their shoulders.

Although they may include bold, sharp lyrics and beats, drill music positively impacts the mind. It is commonly misinterpreted and judged prodigiously without digging deep into the true meaning of the verses. Once a listener reads into the lyrics and chimes, thereby feeling its intensity, they can have a better perception regarding drill and trap music.
