Hip Hop Culture Today
Hip Hop has gotten very big today. Many young men and women look up to these artists, just as they look up to professional football, basketball and baseball players. We view music as a necessity, not a luxury. Music is looked at as an outlet for many people today. It allows people to escape reality, if only for one song.
Some artists that we know today came from very humble beginnings. From drug dealers to private school bullies, hip hop knows no boundaries. It know no color. There is no age limit. The people who like hip hop range from ages eight to 80. Some lyrics just make sense to different cultures and age groups. Music is a way that we, as a culture, express ourselves. Rather we want to discuss our anger, pain, happiness or heartache, chances are there is a hip hop song on the market to explain exactly we feel.
It has branched out a lot in the past few years. Artists have endorsed products from weight loss to make-up. Some have started companies, built restaurants and hotels and started fashion lines and fragrances. They’ve shown up that there is nothing that you cannot do.
Let me go on with this short post. Being in hip hop does not mean that they’re limited to singing or rapping. Some artists take an interest in producing or manufacturing of videos. There are many ways that an artist can branch out of singing, but stay in the industry.

We’re all interested in what is happening in the world today. The hip hop industry is no exception. It’s always fun to know who’s in a relationship with whom. We’re also interested in what relationships have been broken up and why. In our culture, we’re very nosy. Having information about these relationships make us feel closer to these artists.

Name one Hip Hop song that played on the Radio today? If you pick a Down South song, you're not going to get the ten points. This is a very easy question here and I believe that one person is going to get it right. Anybody answers this question properly will make me choose your answer as the best.
Volume one of the “Make it Happen” series, Make It Happen: Hip Hop is an introductory DVD guide to learning the cultural phenomenon of hip-hop dance. Dance instructor Kelly Peters reveals his “one-step-at-a-time” method, broken down slow so the viewer will not need to rewind. With close ups, slow motion, split screen, and a reversed picture just like a dance studio mirror (when Kelly says “Go right,” he moves to your right) help one learn hip-hop moves to perfection. Kelly Peters also discusses the history of hip-hop culture. Make It Happen: Hip Hop is a “must-have” for anyone looking to learn or improve basic hip-hop dance skills. Fifty-five min., color.

They don't play real hip hop on the radio anymore give me my ten pts
Since everyone wrote great reviews on how good the dancers were to keep you inspired & how great Shawn T’s personality is, I will just add the basic info. (I also reviewed the basic set in detail.) The main part is twenty-four min, mostly all aerobics w/some dance moves which disappointed me. The last ten min is leg lifts on a mat w/some yoga & basic leg/spinal stretches like sitting fwd bend, child’s pose, knee to chest stretch & reclining spinal twist. Learn to DAnce – “Hip Hop Groove” – twenty-two min The moves are hot & Shawn can teach. He gives great cues on how to move the body, does not count like most dance instruction dvds, shows you very slow at first, then goes 1/2 time several times & builds to a routine. You do 1/2 time a couple times before full speed at the end. By going 1/2 speed, you do not go so slow you forget where your body is or get bored w/too much talking. He is a great teacher. To see a preview of the dance floor part look up: “Hip Hop Abs — Take It To The Dance Floor” on youtube To see a four min commercial, look up hip hop abs on google video.

RHH: HOW HAS YOUR HIP-HOP MUSIC TASTE CHANGED IN THE PAST YEAR? Some questions to help gauge change, if any: Q: What artists or groups are you listening to now that you didn’t like a year ago and decided to give a second chance? Me: Gangstarr Q2: Is their any specific producer that you feel that’s great in your opinion, but a year ago might haven’t have had the same opinion as now or known about them as much? Probably, Prince Paul Q3: Is their anything you dislike now that you might have liked a year ago? I don't like Jay-Z as much anymore… Q4: Is your all time favorite hip-hop album choice the same as it was a year ago? What is the name of the album? Me: No, it went from Midnight Marauders to Runaway Slave… Q5: Is your all time favorite rapper the same as last year? Who’s it or who has it changed to? Q6: Do you find yourself enjoying a sub genre of hip-hop more than last year? I’ve been listening to a lot of gangsta rap, especially early Houston rap scene and mafioso… Q7: Do you feel like you know more now about hip-hop in general than last year or has it remained somewhat the same? Yes, especially since I joined here and don't have many friends who are into hip-hop music like I’m… Q8: What's an important info/lesson that you have learned about hip-hop that you didn’t know about last year? Me: I didn't know that much about sample restrictions and laws against using other peoples work without giving credit,asking permission, or paying to use someones else work and how some producers are very good in concealing and distorting original sample until the point that they're aren’t recognizable anymore…

Q: I probably wouldn't have liked guys like Big KRIT or Kendrick Lamar a year ago, but I think they dope. Q2: Showbiz Q3: Ludacris, I guess, but that's mostly because he's been garbage lately. Q4: Yeah, Bizzare Ride II The Pharcyde Q5: Yup, it's still MF Grimm. Q6: Concious rap, I found it to be extremely boring, but I'm starting to get into it more. Q7: Yeah, I definitely know more, but still not nearly as much as I'd like to. Q8: I had an assumption that mainstream = more money, which I've learned is pretty untrue unless your a huge star. I find the business side in Hip-Hop extremely interesting so realizing this and finding this out changed my views about alot of things. Also rappers need better lawyers.
Q: Scarface, Xzibit, Royce Da 5'9 Q2: RZA, i didnt appreciate production as much back then Q3: nothing I can thinkof straight away,maybe NWA Q4: Nope, used to be Ready To Die, nowits thirty-six Chambers Q5: no, was Biggie changed to Meth Q6: erm i enjoy more concieus stuff Q7: Yes, especially since I joined here and don't have many friends who are into hip-hop music like I’m…[2] Q8: Same thing you mentioned, i cant think of anything else atm
