In 1970, Hip-Hop became a significant cultural movement and form of art in the African-American community. What makes Hip-Hop unique is that it isn’t just music. It’s the art of self-expression with many factors.
For instance, in Hip-Hop, there’s the DJ who entertains and plays recorded music for an audience, the MC who raps lyrics they’ve written, breakdancers who excel in performance, which is also known as choreography, and artists who specialize in visual art, such as graffiti and special effects. From Grandmaster Flash to MC Lyte, numerous Hip-Hop legends have utilized the genre to express their pain, truth, and happiness regarding the pleasures of life they cherish.
