What Is a Trap Queen in Slang?

Originating in drug slang, a trap queen is a strong, loyal woman, often used in hip-hop and black culture.

As Fetty Wap’s use suggests, trap queen can also be used as an affectionate term for a person’s rock and by some black women, including a self-styled trap feminist, as a form of self-empowerment and agency.
