Atlanta has played a major or contributing role in the development of various genres of American music at different points in the city's history. Beginning as early as the 1920s, Atlanta emerged as a center for [[country music]], which was brought to the city by migrants from [[Appalachia]].<ref>{{cite book |author=Wayne W.

The city was also a center for [[Southern rock]] during its 1970s heyday: the [[Allman Brothers Band]]'s hit instrumental "[[Hot 'Lanta]]" is an ode to the city, while [[Lynyrd Skynyrd]]'s famous live rendition of "[[Free Bird]]" was recorded at the [[Fox Theatre (Atlanta, Georgia)|Fox Theatre]] in 1976, with lead singer [[Ronnie Van Zant]] directing the band to "play it pretty for Atlanta".<ref>{{cite news |title=Rock's Top Southern Sound Viewed as Lynyrd Skynyrd |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=7MtVAAAAIBAJ&pg=6799%2C459278 |newspaper=The Robesonian |location=Lumberton, N.C. |date=November 7, 1976 |access-date=October 28, 2014}}</ref> During the 1980s, Atlanta had an active [[punk rock]] scene centered on two of the city's music venues, [[688 Club]] and the Metroplex, and Atlanta famously played host to the [[Sex Pistols]]' first U.S. show, which was performed at the Great Southeastern Music Hall.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://clatl.com/atlanta/atlanta-punk-a-reunion-for-688-and-metroplex/Content?oid=1275596 |title= Atlanta punk!

Country music artist [[Travis Tritt]], and R&B sensations [[Xscape (group)|Xscape]], [[TLC (group)|TLC]], [[Usher (musician)|Usher]] and [[Toni Braxton]], were just some of the musicians who call Atlanta home. The city also gave birth to [[Atlanta hip hop]], a subgenre that gained relevance and success with the introduction of the home-grown Atlantans known as [[Outkast]], along with other [[Dungeon Family]] artists such as [[Organized Noize]] and [[Goodie Mob]]; however, it was not until the 2000s that Atlanta moved "from the margins to becoming hip-hop's center of gravity with another sub-genre called [[Crunk]], part of a larger shift in hip-hop innovation to the South and East".<ref name=nyt>{{Cite news|last=Caramanica|first=Jon|date=2009-12-11|title=Gucci Mane, No Holds Barred|language=en-US|work=The New York Times|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/13/arts/music/13gucci.html|access-date=2022-01-06|issn=0362-4331}}</ref> Also in the 2000s, Atlanta was recognized by the Brooklyn-based ''[[Vice (magazine)|Vice]]'' magazine for its [[indie rock]] scene, which revolves around the various live music venues found on the city's alternative [[Eastside (Atlanta)|eastside]].<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite news |last = Radford |first = Chad |title = Damn hipsters: Is Atlanta falling prey to its indie cachet? |url = http://clatl.com/atlanta/damn-hipsters-is-atlanta-falling-prey-to-its-indie-cachet/Content?oid=1278176 |work=Creative Loafing |date = February 25, 2009 |access-date=February 25, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Hines |first=Jack |url=https://www.vice.com/read/intro-100-guide-atlanta |title=The VICE Guide to Atlanta |publisher=VICE |access-date=July 16, 2012}}</ref> To facilitate further local development, the state government provides qualified businesses and productions a 15% transferable income tax credit for in-state costs of music investments.<ref>{{cite magazine|last=Wicker |first=Jewel |url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/7997377/atlanta-music-industry-next-creative-business-hub |title=Can Atlanta Become the Music Industry's Next Business Hub? |magazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |date=October 11, 2017 |access-date=September 29, 2018}}</ref> [[Trap music]] became popular in Atlanta, and has since become a hub for popular trap artists and producers due to the success of [[Lil Baby]], [[T.I.]], [[Young Jeezy]], [[21 Savage]], [[Gucci Mane]], [[Future (rapper)|Future]], [[Migos]], [[Lil Yachty]], [[Playboi Carti]], [[2 Chainz]] and [[Young Thug]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.atlantamagazine.com/list/20-reasons-why-atlanta-americas-music-capital/we-are-trap/|title=20 Reasons Why Atlanta is America's Music Capital|page=1|website=[[Atlanta (magazine)|Atlanta]]|date=May 11, 2018|access-date=November 7, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ajc.com/news/local/remember-chainz-pink-trap-house-going-torn-down/q5K56M1MdI4L7W9Y3LCGSK/|title=Remember 2 Chainz's Pink Trap House?
