    HIPHOP AND

    RAP MUSIC
    WHAT IS HIPHOP MUSIC?
    Hip-Hop is a music genre consisting or a stylized rhythmic music that
    commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic and rhyming speech that is
    chanted.

    Hip hop encompasses music, dancing, art, poetry, language and fashion.

    Hip hop as music and culture formed during the 1970s when block parties
    became increasingly popular in New York City, particularly among African
    American youth living.
    Rappers like to express their views and feelings when
    they rap. Their raps can be based on political views, world
    events or just their own feelings and life experiences.

    FOUR ELEMENTS OF HIPHOP

    Rapping DJ’ing

    Break Dancing Graffiti


    RAPPING
    Rapping (also known as emceeing, MCing, spitting (bars), or
    rhyming) refers to spoken or chanted rhyming lyrics.

    Rapping can be delivered over a beat or without


    accompaniment, but i mostly done over a fast beat.

    Rapping originated in Africa, centuries before hip hop music


    existed.

    Most 'rappers' are also known to be hip-hop artists.


    DJ’ing
    A Dj (Disc Jockey) is someone who
    plays recorded music for an
    audience.

    A hip-hop DJ is a bit different as they would play


    music using multiple turntables, to back up one
    or more rappers (MC's).
    Break Dancing

    * Breakdancing is a style of street dance that


    originated as a part of hip hop culture among African
    American and Latino youths in New York City during
    the early 1970s.

    *
    Breakdancing consists of acrobatic and creative dance
    moves.
    GRAFFITI
    Graffiti is the term used to refer to writing or drawings
    scribbled, scratched, or sprayed illegally on a wall or other
    surface in a public place.

    In modern times, spray paint is used to create the graffiti on


    buildings.

    Graffiti is mostly used as a sign of territory marking but hip-


    hop graffiti is more about expressing views on current affairs
    in the world.
