This book was fairly useful for my studies, but as I feared from a scholar-reviewed book, there is a much heavier focus on breadth than depth. It tries to cover a wide The Cambridge Companion to Hip-Hop of topics related to the hip hop culture, but only scratches the surface on the history, context and development of the key components. I was particularly hoping for more background information of the influences other music genres had on hip hop, and how it developed over time.

It has now been more than thirty-five years since the first commercial recordings of hip-hop. Hip-hop icons have now been inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, including Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five (2007), Run-D.M.C. (2009), Beastie Boys (2012), and Public Enemy (2013). Harvard and Cornell Universities have important and extensive hip-hop archives and hip-hop artists such as 9th Wonder and Afrika Bambaataa, respectively, are visiting professors for those institutions. 2Pac’s “Dear Mama,” Public Enemy’s Fear of a Black Planet,DeLaSoul’s 3 Feet High and Rising, Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” and Grand- master Flash and the Furious Five’s “The Message” have all been enshrined in the Library of Congress National Recording Registry. The Grove Dictionary of American Music now includes entries on “beat-making,” “A Tribe Called Quest,” “Dr. Dre,” “Ruthless Records,” and many other hip-hop artists and labels. The Smithsonian Institution holds a turntable used by Grandmaster Flash, a boombox used by Fab 5 Freddy and a customized jacket worn by breaker Crazy Legs among their collections.

  • Arte 3Ro 2Da Tarea Moreno -Rojas
    PROPUESTA DE TRABAJO MATERIA : ARTE CURSO : 3RO 2DA PROFESORES: __MORENO HILARIO NICOLAS _ROJAS MIRIAM Tema : RAP Y GRAFITTI COMBATIR EL CORONOVIRUS Genero musical El término rap se refiere exclusivamente a la música , al arte de rimar improvisando con esa rapidez mental que caracteriza a los mejores raperos. Mientras que, hip hop es una cultura urbana en general que, además, engloba lo musical. El hip hop es un movimiento cultural que surgio en la década de los setenta en Estados Unidos. Los puertorriqueños que emigraron a zonas como Brooklyn o el barrio de Bronx fueron los originarios de la cultura hip hop con sus fiestas callejeras. En estas fiestas siempre había alguien que ponía la música, otra persona que hacía de MC (maestro de ceremonias o speaker ), los bailarines y los encargados de decorar el lugar del evento. Esto dio lugar a los pilares básicos de la cultura del hip hop: Qué significado tiene el hip hop? EL Hip Hop o hiphop, cuando está mal escrito como hip-hop significa (hip) moda, (hop) saltar o bailar. ... La palabra hop es una forma de movimiento. Cuál es la ideología del hip hop? Ideología (Rapper) El Hip Hop no define simplemente un género musical o un estilo de vestimenta, si no toda una particular ideología comprometida en muchos aspectos con los social, lo político y de mayor o menor forma con la vida urbana, o al menos fue así en sus inicios. ¿Cuáles son los 9 elementos del hip hop? 9 Elementos del Hip Hop :Break dancing.-Mceeing.-Graffiti.-DJing.-Beatboxing.-Fashion callejero.- Lenguaje callejero.-Sabiduría callejera .¿Cuál es la diferencia entre el rap y el hip hop? Es un movimiento, una cultura, que hoy en día está presente en los 5 continentes, y que engloba varias artes: el baile (breakdance), la pintura (graffiti), lo auditivo (DJ) y lo oral (Rap).
