Concluding Post

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.

  1. I like how you address actual "content concerns" of your community in this final post. This shows a desire on your part to continue to understand how the world operates and how Hip Hop affects the world (or, as you interestingly state, "afflicts" the world).

    What a great new post idea: what if everyone joined Hip Hop culture? What then indeed!
