What are the best chord progressions for trap/lofi/pop/R&B type beats?
Genre-specific chord patterns that work every time
The Challenge
Each genre has its own harmonic language. Trap uses dark, minimal progressions in minor keys. Lofi favors jazzy 7th chords with nostalgic movement. Pop relies on catchy, emotional progressions. R&B features sophisticated jazz-influenced harmony.
Finding the right chords for your genre means understanding these conventions—or spending hours analyzing reference tracks.
