Triggerman (beat)

The Triggerman beat, also known as Triggaman, is a 1-bar drum loop that somewhat originated from "Drag Rap" by The Showboys.[1] The 1-bar drum loop was known to be used in bounce music, which has been influential in recent hip hop music, including Canadian rapper Drake's "Nice for What" and "In My Feelings", and also "Go Crazy" by American singer Chris Brown and rapper Young Thug.[2][3]

The beat was created by Orville Hall and Phillip Price, who went by the name The Showboys, for the song "Drag Rap". "The song is a classic story rap that lifts both its sonic and structural cues directly from Dragnet."[4]
