When it started, it was relatively clean. Then, gangs began to "sing" hip-hop. It began to change for the worse. The gangs were violent, and then hip-hop got the reputation of being violent. Later, groups created songs that were extremelly inappropriate. The government got involved sometimes because some of the songs were threats to the police. In a nut shell, that is how it chaged.

Well its for underground rappers its a lot more gritty, rough, and violent but the rappers that are famous are more poppy and attracted to all ages and races, back in the 1970s it was mostly African Americans or people who lived on the streets.

Well long story short a guy called DJ Kool Herc is the founding father of hip hop, from him came rappers and in the 80's came gangsta rap... Also the emergence of rappers like LL Cool J who was a hip hop pioneer being the first rapper to do a ballad... In the 90's rappers like Tupac and Notorious B.I.G took the hip hop world by storm rapping about the slums etc and 'keeping it real' with songs like 'Changes'... Now hip hop has become commercial, all about the image and the money with the emergence of Soulja Boy etc.
