Hip Hop is the kind of music you
can listen to in any type of condition. Whether
you’re happy or sad, up or down
there’s always that one song that can make your day. Hip Hop originally started
in the south Bronx, New York. Initially Hip Hop started with four elements B-boying,
mcing, graffiti and djing. B-boying is
consists of people break dancing in a crowd, mcing is spitting rhymes it can be
free styling or it can be two people battling one another. Graffiti is known as
art work that people come up with this can be tag names or just random art
drawing that meaningful also djing is the mix of music, djing is mostly used in
a party or events to get the scenery started or hype.
Huff Post Entertainment states that
“Hip Hop music is unfairly scapegoated because it's misunderstood. More English
grammar and literature is in the lyrics of these songs than anyone ever gives
credit for: similes, metaphors, entendre, puns and more. The problem is people
aren't willing to give it a chance, even looking down on those who enjoy It.” Which
I agree because Hip Hop over time changed, it’s not the same as it used to be
over the years when it first started. When Hip Hop first started it was all
about enjoying yourself and having fun now it seem all Hip Hop is about now is
the money, fast cars, and women. So I would understand why people would judge
someone for liking Hip Hop music they are assuming that that person is what
they rap about which is not the case because there is so much more to the rap
songs. A person has to take the time out and listen and don’t let the beat of
the song or the person tone of voice scared you away from listening.
