Most idol rap groups fuse the trap beats of modern hip-hop with the hooky electronic pop of their non-rapping peers. B.A.P throws punk rock and metal into this mix, resulting in a tough, guitar-powered sound with powerful riffs and howling choruses that's reminiscent of both American rap-rock bands like Linkin Park and the heavy-duty singles of late-‘90s K-pop boy bands. The group's other musical influences include soul, jazz, and traditional Korean music, which highlight a side that's both more introspective and playful.
