A blast of estrogen will hit the Trap Music Museum, as exhibits dedicated to Cardi B and Nicki Minaj will be unveiled this weekend.

The venue (630 Travis St. NW in Atlanta) will also showcase works of art from artists Ryann Kelly, Jordan "JJ The Artist" Jones, Tiffanie "The Pretty Artist" Anderson, Ismail "Calligrafist" Sayeed, Bria "Briartise" Brooks, YoRich Bizarre and Geryn Harris. Both the artwork and the Minaj/Cardi B exhibits were featured in the Lil Trap House summer pop-up in Los Angeles last year and will become permanent fixtures in Atlanta.

Museum general manager Krystal Garner said that she’s always had affection for “women who were able to spit bars over a dope beat” and wanted to fulfill her vow to create space in the venue for women in hip-hop.

The Trap Music Museum and adjacent escape room, founded by T.I. in 2018, attracts about 6,000 guests every weekend. For operating hours and admission info, visit https://trapmusicmuseum.us/.
