Okay, first off let me blake with yah. Someone who claiming to know hiphop/rap has the most horrific bars
Im just being nice with yah by saying "it was alright". You used every diss line every rapper used at
some point. B-Boying doesn't give you any knowledge on rap at you can you tell rap and dance are
completely different subjects. B-Boy is a hip-hop dance yes but can it spit lyrics nope. I can ramble
on and on about how your so wrong in so many ways. Considering that was your first rap song. I bet you
didn't freestyle on that, but there's no way of proving that just like there's no way of proving your
a b-boy by your picture. If you listen carefully to the background I hit the chimes correctly. Yes it originated from poetry and country music believe it or not. Again Rap would
have never happened if New york's underground wasn't in the picture.
So your making bold statements like you know the stuff without any proof. At least I have the facts. Oh please
"from what I heard" shut up you believe everything everyone says are you gullible?
bboying is an element of hip hop, not "a hip hop dance" you ignorant quack. bboying was non-existent without an emcee and a dj back in the day where graffiti artist and hip hop enthusiast would listen to spoken word at these events. So to say they are completely different just proves that you are either too young or you don't know your hip hop history. My proof is that my facts are in depth and they're true because you can go to any real source of hip hop history and they'll tell you these things. Your statements are so broad because...you read or heard those things from a questionable source. "New yorks underground" are you serious? I bet you know nothing of those locations besides the bronx because I already mentioned it.
oh btw "from what I heard?" those people are the originators of hip hop. Kool herc? skeeter rabbit? pimp c and rev run? hell yeah I'm gullible to what they say because they are the icons of hip hop you dummy.
I know that, but you did state that you heard it live in the flesh am I wrong? There no way you could have talked to them. Heres a little history:
Hip-hop music is a relatively new genre, dating back only about 30 years. However, the roots of hip-hop are in the fusion of Africa and America. African music and oral traditions were brought by West African slaves to North and South America. There, they developed into their own musical styles -- often starting with church music, but becoming popular over time in wider circles. Gospel, blues and jazz are all part of this history in the U.S., while reggae, calypso and ska started in the Caribbean. West African drumming, combined with storytelling, is also an important part of the puzzle [source: Hip Hop Magazine].
American soldiers stationed in the Caribbean during World War II helped to integrate all these different musical styles. Jamaica had many temporary discos, and DJs began to add their personal style and comments to the music they shared, leading to two new types of reggae versions of songs, which were called talk over or dub. All of these influences were brought together by Clive Campbell, who emigrated from Jamaica to the U.S. in 1967 at the age of 13. He brought the talk over and dub methods to his West Bronx neighborhood in New York City. Campbell became a popular DJ, better known as DJ Kool Herc, with a style that influenced many others and grew into what is now known as hip-hop.
