- Hip-Hop - an urban youth
culture associated with rap
music and the fashions of
African-American residents of
the inner city
- Rap - genre of African-American
music of the 1980s and 1990s
in which rhyming lyrics are
chanted to a musical
accompaniment; several forms
of rap have emerged
4. Music… The Mc – The person on the
microphone, expressing his/her
thoughts and emotions through
lyrics.
The Dj – otherwise known as
the disc jockey, play music at
clubs or parties. They
normally have two turntables

8. Hip Hop when it started it was supposed to be this new
thing that had no boundaries and was so different to
everyday music. Now it seems like I was starting to get
caught up in the mode of what made hip hop come about.
As long as the music has the true to the heart soul it can
be hip hop. As long as it has soul to it, hip hop can live
on.

obscenity laws.
AKA CENSORSHIP!
