Hip-hop or hip hop (formerly known as disco rap)[7][8] is a genre of popular music that emerged in the early 1970s in New York City. The genre is characterized by stylized rhythmic sounds—often built around disco grooves, electronic drum beats, and rapping, a percussive vocal delivery of rhymed poetic speech as consciousness-raising expression.[9] The music developed as part of the broader hip-hop culture; while often used to refer solely to rapping and rap music, “hip-hop” more properly denotes the practice(s) of the entire subculture.[10][11] The term hip-hop music is sometimes used synonymously with the term rap music,[9][12] though rapping may not be the focus of hip-hop music. The genre also centers DJing, turntablism, scratching,[13] beatboxing, and instrumental tracks.[14][15]
Hip-hop as both a musical genre and a culture was formed during the 1970s, when block parties became increasingly popular in New York City, particularly among ethnic minority youth residing in the Bronx.[16] At block parties, DJs played percussive breaks of popular songs using two turntables and a DJ mixer to be able to play breaks from two copies of the same record, alternating from one to the other and extending the “break“.[17] Hip-hop’s early evolution occurred as sampling technology and drum machines became widely available and affordable. Turntablist techniques such as scratching and beatmatching developed along with the breaks. Rapping developed as a vocal style in which the artist speaks or chants along rhythmically with an instrumental or synthesized beat.
