The Geography of Hip-Hop

The Murray Lecture series at the Department of Geography and Environmental Planning at Towson University welcomes speaker at Howard University to explain in detail the history and development of hip hop culture.

Hip Hop is the largest cultural export item in the United States. At the age of 42, the form of art spread all over the world and became a global sport. Its consumption has not decreased. Instead, hip-hop achieves the purpose of viewers around the world through new ideas, voice, speech, and fashion. Thanks to hip-hop, we have greater cultural diversity

Ironically, the wonderful thing about this culture is that it comes from people who have deprived the rights of the poor. People with the least resources lack institutions that expect most people for art. However, there are not so many things that will give us the courage to create wonderful things beyond the limits.

There are many complex art forms that have evolved from a small but unobtrusive aspect of our history. When a customer is asked to move quickly, the word "jazz" comes from a brothel. This sentence is "Jazz". Slave calls used in plantations and rock music derived from response communication

Hip - hop actually gains a large part of the growth stimulus from urbanization and space redefinition. Economic change such as high end and displacement, created a new space for artists to prosper and become part of popular culture.

Contrary to what most people think, culture is more extensive than rap music. DJ, B-boying, and Graffiti are three elements of the past and still have a great influence on the rights of communities affected by hip hop. Now there are domestic and global competition for DJ and B-boying. "Best Campaign of the Year" is a B-boying competition that Germany holds annually for global competitors. In the UK, there is also the "undoubted world B-boying series" and the Korean "R16" series. B-boying is the main feature of hip-hop music

But DJ is the basis. In the late 1960s, DJ began using archival style music to create new records. In the past 30 years, we saw the competition of DJ in Japan, Canada and the UK. Since the birth of hip hop music, technology has developed rapidly, so the DJ itself became an artistic form.

Grafitti is the only aspect of culture that is illegal without permission. Now the city has a beautification project to fund capital city paintings. With this, the artists expanded the size and scope of graffiti. It was primarily due to juvenile offenders, spray cans working on the subway, trains and bridges in the city. Now, the artist created more rhetoric and honor for thanks to the community.

There is abundant information that can provide the foundation and function of hip hop. The ancient ceremonies of energy exchange, slavery, the great migration "black experience" after slavery, a conscious exercise rejecting white supremacy helps to create this culture

By listening to the songs listed in the city, you can begin to feel hip-hop music and style from that place. For the development of hip-hop music, see the accompanying article "The Syncopated Geography of Hip-Hop". In this article we will explore the influence of geography on regional and regional styles and how hip - hop music reflects the impact of various urban areas.

Hip-hop culture is often confused with hip-hop type. Hip - hop culture is not only music but also way of life. Hip - hop music has changed from rap to pop as a genre. Hip hop is a constantly evolving culture, and as older generations disappear, the new generation inherits tradition and incorporates new style. Today's new generation of hip-hop and hip-hop are focusing on parties, music, and swags rather than the original elements.

Hip-hop is an art form mainly performed on hip-hop music. Hip hop danced in the street. The style developed later was called a new school. Older includes break dance and funk style. The period from 1970 to 1985 has reached the hip-hop era of old school. Between 1985 and 1993 it was regarded as the hip hop golden age. There are hip - hop dance, harem shake, break dance, gang dance etc. Without music there is no dancing! The emergence of hip - hop music and popularity among the masses caused hip - hop dance style. For the first time, Clive Campbell developed hip - hop music in the Bronx, New York. He developed a blueprint for hip hop music and culture based on the Jamaican baking tradition. He began hip-hop music at the age of thirteen. Clive also developed a revolutionary show
