Hip hop started with names like Kool Herc in NY back in the 70's who experemented with djing and hosting partys, and by putting together little freestyle rhymes, he would entertain and intruduce guests to his partys..
People built on it from there and today it has turned into a genre of music called RAP............ Not a genre of poetry... Not a form of poetry that is some how left out of all poetry books and texts as being a known style of poetry..
People gotta be kidding me saying rap is just a form of poetry...
Shit is insane.....
I'll say it again...
Relation - Yes
Rap being 'just a form of poetry' - Fucking hell no
