What does the term HIP HOP Mean?
Hip Hop is a broad conglomerate of artistic forms that originated as a specific street subculture within African American communities during the 1970s in New York City, specifically in Morris Heights, The Bronx, then later spread its influence to Latin American communities. It is characterized by four distinct elements, all of which represent the different manifestations of the culture: rap music (aural), turntablism or “DJing” (aural), breaking (physical) and graffiti art (visual). Despite their contrasting methods of execution, they find unity in their common association to the poverty and violence underlying the historical context that birthed the culture.
The term is frequently used mistakenly to refer in a confining fashion to the mere practice of rap music.
It was as a means of providing a reactionary outlet from such urban hardship that “Hip Hop” initially functioned, a form of self-expression that could reflect upon, proclaim an alternative to, try and challenge or merely evoke the mood of the circumstances of such an environment. Even while it continues in contemporary history to develop globally in a flourishing myriad of diverse styles, these foundational elements provide stability and coherence to the culture.
