Hip-Hop and Rap

By: Knopp, Ezra E.

Hip-hop and rap are forms of music that rose quickly to popularity. Inspired by previous forms of music, such as jazz, soul, and funk, hip-hop was invented at block parties in New York City in the early 1970s. Often combined with rapping and breakdancing, hip-hop has always been a dynamic, energetic artform. Today, hip-hop is one of the most popular forms of music around the world, and has had a lasting influence on other modern forms of music.
