i put hiphop and rap together so there 1!

rap is a branch from hip hop.

hip hop's the lifestyle.raps the element.

werd...

dont mess with the man thats behind this thread yall...


:thumbup:

rap is about persons life
hiphop is like sumthing everybody dose like from the way u act to clothing
i mean thats wat i think it is

Rap - popular
Breakin - popular
graff - popular
DJing - popular
hiphop heads - many

yup... sure is dead

original hip hop wasnt, but modern hip hop definitely is about having money, bein a gangsta/dealer/pimp, moving weight, killing people, fucking ho's, etc.
there are a few exceptions, but not many

hip hop=life true dat bitches

RAP as potrayed by the mainstream is pop music. the ghostwriters, simple ass topics(guns bitches, money, etc.), and overall lack of originality is not a true representation of REAL hip-hop. to me, i'm no longer a rapper. that title got twisted by the coke dealers turned wannabe gangstaz turned rappers. i consider myself to be a hip-hop artist. i flow and love the art of makin my emotions come to life in my rhymes(which is why i started writing in Poetic Scriptures). it pains me to think my aspirations of bein' a mainstream artist iz bein' ruined by people who already made it in the industry. i refuse to sell my soul(yeah my music is my heart and soul) just to make a buck. i'ma be underground bcuz to me that's where hip-hop REALLY is. the kid spittin' in the cafeteria of his schoolnot bcuz he gets paid to, but bcuz it's what he loves to do. bcuz of that kid real hip-hop will never die.

*shout to the kid rappin' at lunch, i see u, i see u boy

^^^True that man....hip hop is my inspiration to life with out hip hop....id be in a cell right now.........

this thread needs to be filtered and cleaned of freeposts and bullshit so my original post is more effective, kids need to read it before they type.

Nope. Media just screws a whole lot of things up. Its rap, not hip hop, and rap is part of hip hop which is a culture. RnB is RnB... I dont know what dumbass decided one day that RnB was hip hop.

But anyway, you should read up about it cos im tired of explaining.

Yeah really....Most rappers make rap/hip hop... But then again they are rappers so how come some songs of theres are rap an the others hip hop? two completely different things.

rap=money

hip hop=the love and respect for what we have as the next generation to express ourselves.

big diffrence.

exactly........^^

This thread has been cleaned. Please try stay real to yourself and our culture and post deep meaningfull shit for future rv heads to read and see how we stood on this culture of hiphop.

-Ysd@-

hip hop is what that description all said and it can be done by any person, color, religion, and it dont really matter where u come from...u can be from the burbs and still put together words as good as people in the hood...u just gotta learn how ta use them and elevate

Mods re stick this.

Arent you a mod here?

Some consider beatboxing the fifth element of hip hop.....Hip hop is a cultural movement that began among urban African Americans in New York City in the early 1970s, and has since spread around the world....

Hip hop is that thing where you do shit.

Hip Hop is an artform and a subculture, it's NOT just music

it is also the clothes you wear, graffiti, DJ'ing breakdancing and all

then hip hop sucks.

There should be a poll of rap and hip-hop
