HIP HOP MUSIC, ALSO KNOWN AS RAP MUSIC, IS A GENRE OF POPULAR MUSIC DEVELOPED
IN THE UNITED STATES BY INNER-CITY AFRICAN AMERICANS AND LATINO AMERICANS IN THE
BRONX BOROUGH OF NEW YORK CITY IN THE 1970S. IT CONSISTS OF A STYLIZED RHYTHMIC
MUSIC THAT COMMONLY ACCOMPANIES RAPPING, A RHYTHMIC AND RHYMING SPEECH
THAT IS CHANTED. IT DEVELOPED AS PART OF HIP HOP CULTURE, A SUBCULTURE DEFINED BY
FOUR KEY STYLISTIC ELEMENTS: MCING/RAPPING, DJING/SCRATCHING WITH TURNTABLES,
BREAK DANCING, AND GRAFFITI WRITING. OTHER ELEMENTS INCLUDE SAMPLING BEATS OR
BASS LINES FROM RECORDS (OR SYNTHESIZED BEATS AND SOUNDS), AND RHYTHMIC
BEATBOXING. WHILE OFTEN USED TO REFER SOLELY TO RAPPING, "HIP HOP" MORE PROPERLY
DENOTES THE PRACTICE OF THE ENTIRE SUBCULTURE. THE TERM HIP HOP MUSIC IS SOMETIMES
USED SYNONYMOUSLY WITH THE TERM RAP MUSIC, THOUGH RAPPING IS NOT A REQUIRED
COMPONENT OF HIP HOP MUSIC; THE GENRE MAY ALSO INCORPORATE OTHER ELEMENTS
OF HIP HOP CULTURE, INCLUDING DJING, TURNTABLISM, SCRATCHING, BEATBOXING, AND
INSTRUMENTAL TRACKS.
Origins
•
HIP HOP AS MUSIC AND CULTURE FORMED DURING THE 1970S IN NEW YORK CITY FROM THE
MULTICULTURAL EXCHANGE BETWEEN AFRICAN-AMERICAN YOUTH FROM THE UNITED STATES
AND YOUNG IMMIGRANTS AND CHILDREN OF IMMIGRANTS FROM COUNTRIES IN THE
CARIBBEAN. HIP HOP MUSIC IN ITS INFANCY HAS BEEN DESCRIBED AS AN OUTLET AND A
VOICE FOR THE DISENFRANCHISED YOUTH OF MARGINALIZED BACKGROUNDS AND LOW-
INCOME AREAS, AS THE HIP HOP CULTURE REFLECTED THE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC AND
POLITICAL REALITIES OF THEIR LIVES. MANY OF THE PEOPLE WHO HELPED ESTABLISH HIP HOP
CULTURE, INCLUDING DJ KOOL HERC, DJ DISCO WIZ, GRANDMASTER FLASH, AND AFRIKA
BAMBAATAA WERE OF LATIN AMERICAN OR CARIBBEAN ORIGIN.
•
IT IS HARD TO PINPOINT THE EXACT MUSICAL INFLUENCES THAT MOST AFFECTED THE SOUND
AND CULTURE OF EARLY HIP HOP BECAUSE OF THE MULTICULTURAL NATURE OF NEW YORK
CITY. HIP HOP'S EARLY PIONEERS WERE INFLUENCED BY A MIX OF MUSIC FROM THEIR
CULTURES AND THE CULTURES THEY WERE EXPOSED TO AS A RESULT OF THE DIVERSITY OF U.S.
CITIES. NEW YORK CITY EXPERIENCED A HEAVY JAMAICAN HIP HOP INFLUENCE DURING THE
1990S. THIS INFLUENCE WAS BROUGHT ON BY CULTURAL SHIFTS PARTICULARLY BECAUSE OF
THE HEIGHTENED IMMIGRATION OF JAMAICANS TO NEW YORK CITY AND THE AMERICAN-
BORN JAMAICAN YOUTH WHO WERE COMING OF AGE DURING THE 1990S.
Technology
HIP HOP'S EARLY EVOLUTION OCCURRED AROUND THE TIME THAT SAMPLING
TECHNOLOGY AND DRUM-MACHINES BECAME WIDELY AVAILABLE TO THE GENERAL
PUBLIC AT A COST THAT WAS AFFORDABLE TO THE AVERAGE CONSUMER—NOT JUST
PROFESSIONAL STUDIOS. DRUM-MACHINES AND SAMPLERS WERE COMBINED IN
MACHINES THAT CAME TO BE KNOWN AS MPC'S OR 'MUSIC PRODUCTION CENTERS',
EARLY EXAMPLES OF WHICH WOULD INCLUDE THE LINN 9000. THE FIRST SAMPLER THAT
WAS BROADLY ADOPTED TO CREATE THIS NEW KIND OF MUSIC WAS THE MELLOTRON
USED IN COMBINATION WITH THE TR-808 DRUM MACHINE. MELLOTRONS AND LINN'S
WERE SUCCEEDED BY THE AKAI, IN THE LATE 1980S.
TURNTABLIST TECHNIQUES – SUCH AS RHYTHMIC "SCRATCHING" (PUSHING A RECORD
BACK AND FORTH WHILE THE NEEDLE IS IN THE GROOVE TO CREATE NEW SOUNDS AND
SOUND EFFECTS, AN APPROACH ATTRIBUTED TO GRAND WIZZARD THEODORE, BEAT
MIXING AND/OR BEATMATCHING, AND BEAT JUGGLING – EVENTUALLY DEVELOPED
ALONG WITH THE PERCUSSION BREAKS, CREATING A MUSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT OR
BASE THAT COULD BE RAPPED OVER IN A MANNER SIMILAR TO SIGNIFYING. AS WELL,
THE ART OF JAMAICAN TOASTING, A STYLE OF TALKING OR CHANTING INTO A
MICROPHONE, OFTEN IN A BOASTFUL STYLE, WHILE BEATS PLAY OVER A SOUND
SYSTEM, WAS AN IMPORTANT INFLUENCE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIP HOP MUSIC.
TOASTING IS ANOTHER INFLUENCE FOUND IN JAMAICAN DUB MUSIC.
