What is hip hop

Hip Hop is an art form that include cutting’ & scratching, rapping, break dancing and graffiti art. These art forms as we know them today originated in the South Bronx section of New York City around the mid 1970s. Hip Hop has thrived within the subculture of Black and Puerto Rican communities in New York and is now just recently beginning to enjoy widespread exposure. From a sociological perspective, Hip Hop has been one of the main contributing factors that helped curtail gang violence due to the fact that many adults found it preferable to channel their anger and aggressions into these art forms which eventually became the ultimate expression of one’s self.


Hip Hop is a type of poem that is rapped by people.

on the spring break we had i and my parents and siblings went on a trip to MassAchusetts. we went to our uncle. I think that MA was kind of boring to me but we went shopping and other things so it wasn’t that boring, it was kind of fun. getting from new york to MA was a very long way when your driving there. but we didn’t spend a long time there because we had to come back to new york. it takes 3 hr to get there and come back.
