Hip Hopis a music genre consisting of a stylized rhythmic music that commonly accompanies rapping, a rhythmic and rhyming speech that is chanted.[2] It developed as part of hip hop culture, a subculture defined by four key stylistic elements: MCing/rapping, DJing/scratching, break dancing, and graffiti writing.[6][7][8] Other elements include sampling (or synthesis), and beatboxing.
While often used to refer to rapping, "hip hop" more properly denotes the practice of the entire subculture.[9][10] The term hip hop music is sometimes used synonymously with the term rap music,[2][5] though rapping is not a required component of hip hop music; the genre may also incorporate other elements of hip hop culture, including DJing and scratching, beatboxing, and instrumental tracks.[11][12]
Modern day elements of hip-hop began appearing in today's media. In my opinion, I think today's music, and more specifically hip-hop, is loving stuff. Old school hip-hop is what made the generation back-in-the-day, and sparked a whole new cluster of rappers and DJ's from around the world. If you're going to flame this thread and say that all hip-hop is stuff, i suggest you leave, because i'm not here to argue over that.
