Hip-hop is the mixture off all four-elements, which are, Graffiti, B-boy, Turntablism, MCing
Hip hop is a form of musical expression and artistic subculture during the 1970s in New York City, specifically the Bronx outlined the four pillars of hip hop culture: which come to be Graffiti writting, B-boy, Turntablism, MCing,,,
now days hip-hop is what people or wanna be rappers "rap"... when you say hip-hop its no just rapper, because back when the original hip-hop was here the mc's couldent be nothing with out the dj's
Hip-Hop culture and form of ground breaking music and self expression with elements that consisted of the elements of graffiti art, DJing, MCing, and breaking. Today Hip-Hop is considered to be dead in the mainstream because so-called mainstream Hip-Hop doesn't have the elements of hip-hop and have no meaning.
The stuff on MTV and the radio can't be called Hip-Hop because the lyrics don't have any meaning or self expression. Wack artists today just rap about their shopping lists and other BS. There are no more DJs making a prescence since artists today think they can manage without them. Without a DJ there are no scratches and cuts. No much graffiti art is being shown in videos. Artists such as 50 Cent, Nelly, Chingy, J-Kwon, P. Diddy, Cash Money Millionaries lack the 4 elements since their lyrics are ridiculous (no MCing skills), they don't have any DJ presence in their tracks (notice that so-called hip-hop today lacks scratches and cuts), and not much graffiti art is being expressed.
The point of this defintion is to show that MTV/Radio mainstream Bling Rappers should be categorized as Hip-Pop artists, not Hip-Hop artists.
The expression of the relationship between urban youth and their environment. The art of the streets ( basically, theres no definite definition of hip-hop. saying that my definition of hip-hop is right is totally bias, although i do have a opinion of what hip-hop means to ME. hip-hop is the love of the music. the culture, the passion, freedom of expression,emcees... not to be mistakened for rappers... )
basicly hip-hop is a life style..
