Question

5. How did hip-hop become part of our culture!

Answer 1

Hip hop emerged as a reaction to the gang culture and violence of the South Bronx in the 1970s, and daily experiences of poverty, racism, exclusion, crime, violence, and neglect. It necessarily embodies and values resilience, understanding, community and social justice.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hip-hop is more than music, it's a full and vibrant culture. Over the past three decades, hip-hop has influenced and uplifted America, speaking up for generations and providing a voice to marginalized populations. Opponents of hip-hop culture argue that the music is aggressive in nature and promotes social rebellion.
