  • Hip Hop Terms
    1 Topic Page Number General Hip Hop Definitions ………………………………………………. 3 Definitions Related to Specific Dance Styles: ♦ Breaking ………………………………………………………………………. 4 ♦ House ………………………………………………………..………………… 6 ♦ Popping / Locking …………………………………………….….……… 7 2 GENERAL • Battle A competition in which dancers, usually in an open circle surrounded by their competitors, dance their routines, whether improvised (freestyle) or planned. Participants vary in numbers, ranging from one on one to battles of opposing breaking crews, or teams. Winners are determined by outside judges, often with prize money. • • Cypher Open forum, mock exhibitions. Similar to battles, but less emphasis on competition. • Freestyle Improvised Old School routine. • Hip Hop A lifestyle that is comprised of 4 elements: Breaking, MCing, DJing, and Graffiti. Footwear and clothing are part of the hip hop style. Much of it is influenced by the original breaking crews in the 1980’s from the Bronx. Sneakers are usually flat soled and may range from Nike, Adidas, Puma, or Converse. Generally caps are worn for spins, often with padding to protect the head. To optimize the fast footwork and floor moves, the baggy pants favored by hip hop rappers are not seen. o Breaking Breakdancing. o MCing Rapping. MC uses rhyming verses, pre‐written or freestyled, to introduce and praise the DJ or excite the crowd. o DJing Art of the disk jockey. o Graffiti Name for images or lettering scratched, scrawled, painted usually on buildings, trains etc. • Hip Hop dance There are two main categories of hip hop dance: Old School and New School. • New School hip hop dance Newer forms of hip hop music or dance (house, krumping, voguing, street jazz) that emerged in the 1990s • Old School hip hop dance Original forms of hip hop music or dance (breaking, popping, and locking) that evolved in the 1970s and 80s.

The general objective is to determine what is being communicated through these expressive forms, to whom, how, and finally to suggest why it is being communicated. The extent to which the encoded messages are consistent with reports of the subculture's goals is then discussed. It is asserted that hip hop operates as an alternative identity management and problem-solving mechanism within the black American ghetto.

The inventory of b-boy moves is extensive, and there are competitions throughout the world, with a growing number of dancers becoming sponsored entities. The Top Rock is a combination of steps done while standing up. This is the entry dance that Bboys and Bgirls use to start their set. These steps are done before you do a power set or before you go down to the floor. This is the breaker's chance to show how well he or she can rock the beat and/or make gestures to intimidate their opponent.

But in the end, it has all been worth it. This project was an enormous undertaking, and would not have been possible without the support of my committee, professors, friends, and family. First and foremost I must thank my thesis advisor and chair of my committee Allen Fogelsanger for meeting with me weekly for a year, discussing directions I might go in and conclusions I might reach, as well as keeping my feathers fluffed about the import of my work. His corrections to my work were invaluable, as was his realistic approach to knowing how to pare my research down to a reasonable size. I am forever indebted to Jim Self for allowing me to take his course Hip Hop, Hollywood, and Home Movies as a first-semester freshman, where I was introduced to the academic study of Hip-hop dance, and first learned how to B-boy.
