In the early 1970s a musical genre was born in the crime-ridden neighborhoods of New York City. Gifted teenagers with plenty of imagination but little cash began to forge a new style from spare parts. Hip-hop as it was then known was a product of pure streetwise ingenuity extracting rhythms and melodies from existing records and mixing them up with searing poetry chronicling life in the hood hip-hop spilled out of the ghetto.
Hip-hop is the voice of a generation that refused to be silenced by urban poverty a local phenomenon fueled with so much passion and truth it could not help but reach the entire world.

DJ disc jockey
In the early 70s when disco was monopolizing the mainstream airwaves the rap movement was just being born.
The teenagers of the South Bronx and Harlem didnt have the money to pay for admission to the expensive midtown and downtown clubs so they had their own parties. Along the way clubs house parties and block parties sprang up all over New York ghettos giving birth to the neighborhood DJ
Pete DJ Jones was about the most notable DJ during those early days. He epitomized the true meaning of a DJ. He had the precise timing necessary to enable the partygoer to dance nonstop while keeping the break of a record playing continuously. He had a clean mixing style and an excellent sound system.
Kool DJ Herc the godfather of hip-hop was a Jamaican-born DJ who moved to the Bronx in 1967. With his unique playlist of RB soul funk and obscure disco Herc quickly became the catalyst of the hip-hop way of life. The kids from the Bronx and Harlem loved his ghetto style which gave birth to the concept of the B-Boy. The B-Boy -- or beat boy break boy Bronx boy -- loved the breaks of Kool Herc and as a result soon created break dancing. These were the people of the hip-hop culture. While Pete DJ Jones was the pioneer for the black disco crowd in New York City Herc and the B-Boys were the essence of the hip-hop movement because of they lived the lifestyle.
The way they danced dressed walked and talked was unique as opposed to most of the mainstream culture. It’s a kind of sub-culture. It’s not in touch with the urban streets of America.
Hip-hop ---- a style of music which is composed of two main elements: rapping and DJing along with break-dancing and graffiti these are the four components of hip-hop a cultural movement which began among African Americans in New York City in the 1970s. The term Rap is sometimes used synonymously with hip-hop music though it is also used to refer specifically to the practice of rapping which is just one component of hip hop.
Both the musical and lyrical content of Rap still make it anathema to the majority of the public but there is little doubt that its enormous significance as a social document will be recognized when future generations write the history books.
