Best Answer

It was kind of rough for most parts. Many buildings burned, cars being stolen and stripped, widespread drug use and gang wars were common. By the late 1980's, the Bronx became a much better place with rebuilt and new housing, lower crime rates and neighborhood revitalization.

Where and where did hip-hop origate?

The answer to this question is the Bronx,NY. Hip Hop started in the Bronx and then branched out all across the globe. The thing that still stuns me though is the fact that NJ is right next to NY and there are not that many MCs that come from NJ. A new one that I found to like a lot is named Darcello "Diamondz" Porter and he has this new single called: Gore-Tex Music!
