hip- hop culture has 5 pillars: emceeing (rapping), break dance, graffiti, turntablism and beatboxing.
It has began in the new York city in the 1970s predominantly african Americans and latino Americans, it means that hip hop started out in the inner cities as a form of expression, and fun was part of it: that was the main thing about it, there wasn't really a negative attribute to it, it was just people talking about the environment that they lived and trying to uplift people.
in this days the people (mainly rappers) have characteristics in their dress style because they were dressed sportive clothes and wore stolen jewelry.
The most years of the popularity of the hip hop was in the 90s mainly when rappers like 2pac, dr.dre, snoop dog, jay z and more were a stars in this time, in addition 2pac Was murdered by unknown people in 1996, which influence the hip hop world Immediately later and factor to notorious b.i.g to be murdered by others that probably avenge to killing of 2pac.
Moreover in 90s was developed the southern hip hop, it has more name like a 'dirty south', the dirty be named because this genre was succeed cause the commercialization to the money and not to soul As in the other places.
In spite of all of this there are a lot of good southern urban artists in the south.
In addition Jamaican dance hall reggae become rap because many of the early pioneers ( dj herc) and newer rappers (busta rhymes, notorious b.i.g and redman) in the American rap era are Jamaican immigrants or children of Jamaican immigrants in new York.
One does not have to look very far to see the relationship between the two as we now see rap and dancehall reggae merging. This would not be possible if there were not the similarities as the child is now beginning to return to the parent.
Jamaican dejaying came out of a form a rhyming and talking over music called toasting, on the other hand rapping began as a variation on the toasting.
Many of the artists involved in the birth of the rap in new York were either Jamaican or have Jamaican parentage.

Without a doubt Jamaican deejay style was the foundation for American rap music and needs to be recognized as such.
One more genre music that hip hop include is a blues, blues is a style of syncopated jazz that originated from the early lamenting folk music of African Americans and is characterized by the repeated use of flat notes. many of blues fans and artists have gone on record attacking rap, Some have undoubtedly thought their arguments through in detail, but all too many just come off as knee-jerk conservatives, dismissing hip-hop without ever having stopped to listen and give the style a fair chance.
