Snap music

Snap music is a subgenre of southern rap music that emerged from Atlanta, Georgia. The genre of music soon became popular and artists from other southern states began to emerge.
Tracks commonly consist of only a 808 (bass or kick drum), hi-hat, bass, snapping, a main groove, and a vocal track. Invented for use at nightclubs, it is unusually languid for normal dance music, with a slow tempo. There is some debate over the true origin of Snap, with rap outfits Dem Franchize Boyz, K-Rab, D4L, and producer Mr. Collipark, claiming to be the creators.

Snap dance is a subcategory of pop dance that started in Atlanta, Georgia. The basic idea is that dancers snap their fingers to the snap sound to musical accents while doing various basic dance moves in between.

SNAP MUSIC DANCES
There are four dances that can be done to snap music. They are The Poole Palace, The Westside Walk, Jocin', and the Snap Dance. The snap dance is a very simple dance done to snap music. Different artists have different ways of instructing it, from Lil' Jon's "Snap ya Fingaz, Do ya Step" description to Dem Franchize Boyz "Lean wit it, Rock wit it" instruction. Basically, the dance is the movement of the torso and arms with little (if any) feet movement, followed by snapping and leaning back in time with the music.
