LIL DIRTBAGG | ‘Booted Up’ Catchy Trap Tune
When I first heard “Booted Up,” by Long Island, NY rapper LIL DIRTBAGG, my first thought was, “I need to hear this in a function.” As I was listening to his latest project “Hells Angles,” “Booted Up” was a song that was short in length, but impactful in the way it drew me in and immediately made me want to dance. Whether you find yourself out or just trying to lift your mood at home, this track is perfect for bringing up your energy.
Producer iankon created a track with layered synths that really make the production feel full, including a dynamic lead that is extremely catchy. He uses trap drums with heavy bass to bring variation to the song as they phase in and out. This highlights the more melodic content. Although this beat does a great job of showcasing versatile frequencies, the overall feel is darker. Paired with compelling vocals, LIL DIRTBAGG has a calmer voice, but still maintains an animated spirit. He comes on this song with confidence and a carefree attitude, which we can see when he raps:
Come out with the Rick, you know we dripped up
Smoking presidential with my pinky up

Rap Fiesta had the opportunity to talk to LIL DIRTBAGG who told us he began making music in middle school, but really started taking it seriously his Junior year of high school. Not only is he a musician, but a skateboarder, photographer, and designer. This versatile artist finds inspiration from various aspects of his life, but when creating “Booted Up”, and the rest of the tracks off of, “Hells Angles,” he was still experimenting with autotune. This ultimately was a big part in making this song as he told us,
I just wanted to make a lit autotune song and let people know I can really do this shit.

When listening to “Booted Up,” I initially had it on repeat for a good half hour, almost wishing it was longer. Luckily, this is just one magnetic track off of his latest EP, which is truly filled with several more compelling tracks. Feeding our love for trap music, LIL DIRTBAGG brought us solid and raw tracks. So what is next for this artist? He is hoping to get visuals for his music and is actively working on his clothing line.
