Chop snare
The Chop Snare is a digital snare sample that has been widely sampled in popular music, specifically trap music. It comes from the 2006 track "Baby Bend Over" by the hip hop duo Field Mob, released as track 4 on the 2006 album "Light Poles and Pine Trees".[1] It is easily recognizable for its sharp, metallic sound that cuts through the mix of most tracks, due in part to a sharp peak at around the 4100 Hz range within the sample.
With the rise of trap music in the late 2000s, the snare was used in hits including "I Don't Like" by Chief Keef and "Rockstar" by Post Malone. By the 2010s, it had become almost ubiquitous with contemporary hip hop as a whole.[citation needed]
The name of the sample originates from producer Young Chop, who popularized the sample due to his work with Chief Keef in the early 2010s. He did not create the sample – the most likely candidate for who created the Chop Snare is Polow Da Don, who produced the Field Mob song that the snare originated from.[2]
