The reason why I chose to write my
blog about Hip Hop was because I've always been really passionate about the
music I listen to. Doing my blog on this topic really expanded my knowledge on
the subjects in many ways. I always enjoy learning new things and I figured
this would teach me a lot.
In this blog I went into detail
about the several different elements that make up hip hop. Such as Hip-Hop
dance, emceeing, djing, and graffiti. These elements create a culture that
brings many people together, and help them express their talents and
creativity. I also made some points about why many people seem to think Hip Hop
afflicts society.
Many people tend to think Hip Hop as
whole is only rap music that is displayed on TV. However it is mainstream rap
that depicts Hip Hop and the black community as a negative influence. When it
is the mainstream music corporations who exploit rappers, and only release
certain music.
Hip Hop will overcome this shadow
that is 'bad' rap music that is giving it its bad reputation. It was founded by
people who really wanted to make a positive change in the community. And it
grew so fast and spread all over the world. There are people all over the world
who appreciate Hip Hop so much and adopted its culture. This just proves how
much of an effect it has had on the world. I wonder how completely different
the world would be if everyone in the world adapted to that lifestyle. It would
be strange, but also fun.
