All about real Hip Hop – Street Poetry and Music
One of the greatest forms of entertainment is music. For music is a unique way to touch the heart of a human being. Music is attached to our lives in many ways.
Not every type of music is preferred by all humans. For different segments of people, we can find various kinds of music. Hip Hop is one of the popular forms of music today for a large segment of listeners. Music lovers all around the world rate hip hop music very highly. It is not the oldest form of music, but people like it anyway.
The unique style and images of hip hop music, make it popular, not only in USA, but all around the world. The introduction of hip hop music was not so long ago. While introduced in the sixties, it was in the early seventies when this music began to be noticed. Many people believe hip hop was a combination of West African and African American music.
In the early period, in the Bronx, hip hop music was mainly played at block parties. But as it became extremely popular in these parties, people started to think about performing hip hop music in other places. By the mid 1980’s, musicians were playing hip hop music in discos.
In the beginning, hip hop music was mostly a verbal track of street poetry with a remix of popular songs in the background. But original music tracks soon followed to accompany the verbal track, and a huge craze was created among music lovers.
Today hip hop is a very popular form of music. Millions of copies of hip hop music are sold every year. In spite, of all the controversies created by hip-hop artists, they are still growing in number. It is one venue where poetry is alive and commercially viable!
