The drum-and-horn loop lifted from The Showboys' 1986 single 'Drag Rap' (aka 'Triggerman'). It's the genetic code of New Orleans bounce — sped up, chopped, and chanted over on basically every bounce record from 1991 to today. If you've heard a NOLA track that makes a room move, you've heard the Triggerman.
“Every bounce DJ in the city is gonna drop the Triggerman beat before the night's over.”
