●
Though created in the United States by African Americans, hip hop
culture and music are now global in scope.
●
Youth culture and opinion are meted out in both Israeli hip hop and
Palestinian hip hop.
●
Canada, France, Germany, the U.K., Poland, Brazil, Japan, Africa,
Australia, and the Caribbean have long-established hip hop
followings.
●
According to the U.S. Department of State, hip hop is "now the
center of a mega music and fashion industry around the world,"
crossing social barriers and cutting across racial lines.
●
National Geographic recognizes hip hop as "the world's favorite
youth culture" in which "just about every country on the planet
seems to have developed its own local rap scene."
●
Through its international travels, hip hop is now considered a “global
musical epidemic,” and has diverged from its ethnic roots by way of
globalization and localization.
●
Although some non-American rappers may still relate to young black
Americans, hip hop now transcends its original culture.
●
It is appealing because it is “custom-made to combat the anomie
that preys on adolescents wherever nobody knows their name.”
●
Hip hop is attractive in its ability to give a voice to disenfranchised
youth in any country, and as music with a message it is a form
available to all societies worldwide.
●
From its early spread to Europe and Japan to an almost worldwide
acceptance through Asia and South American countries such as
Brazil, the musical influence has been global.
●
Hip hop sounds and styles differ from region to region, but there is
also a lot of crossbreeding.
●
In each separate hip hop scene there is also constant struggle
between "old school" hip hop and more localized, newer sounds.
●
Regardless of where it is found, the music often targets local
disaffected youth.
●
Hip hop has given people a voice to express themselves, from the
"Bronx to Beirut, Kazakhstan to Cali, Hokkaido to Harare, Hip Hop is
the new sound of a disaffected global youth culture."
●
Though on the global scale there is a heavy influence from US
culture, different cultures worldwide have transformed hip hop with
their own traditions and beliefs. "
●
Global Hip Hop succeeds best when it showcases ... cultures that
reside outside the main arteries of the African Diaspora."
●
Not all countries have embraced hip hop, where "as can be
expected in countries with strong local culture, the interloping wild-
style of hip hop is not always welcomed".
●
As hip hop becomes globally-available, it is not a one-sided process
that eradicates local cultures.
●
Instead, global hip hop styles are often synthesized with local styles.
●
Hartwig Vens argues that hip hop can also be viewed as a global
learning experience.
●
Hip hop from countries outside the United States is often labeled
"world music" for the American consumer.
●
Author Jeff Chang argues that "the essence of hip hop is the cipher,
born in the Bronx, where competition and community feed each
other."
●
Hip hop has impacted many different countries culturally and
socially in positive ways.
●
"Thousands of organizers from Cape Town to Paris use hip hop in
their communities to address environmental justice, policing and
prisons, media justice, and education."
●
While hip hop music has been criticized as a music which creates a
divide between western music and music from the rest of the world,
a musical "cross pollination" has taken place, which strengthens the
power of hip hop to influence different communities.
●
Hip hop's impact as a "world music" is also due to its translatability
among different cultures in the world.
●
Hip hop's messages allow the under-privileged and the mistreated to
be heard.
●
These cultural translations cross borders.
●
While the music may be from a foreign country, the message is
something that many people can relate to- something not "foreign"
at all.
●
Even when hip hop is transplanted to other countries, it often retains
its "vital progressive agenda that challenges the status quo.
●
Global hip hop is the meeting ground for progressive local activism,
as many organizers use hip hop in their communities to address
environmental injustice, policing and prisons, media justice, and
education.
●
In Gothenburg, Sweden, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs)
incorporate graffiti and dance to engage disaffected immigrant and
working class youths.
●
Indigenous youths in countries as disparate as Bolivia,Chile,
Indonesia, New Zealand, and Norway use hip hop to advance new
forms of identity.
●
This article or section may contain previously unpublished synthesis
of published material that conveys ideas not attributable to the
original sources. See the talk page for details. (March 2009)
●
Even in the face of growing global popularity, or perhaps because of
it, hip hop has come under fire for being too commercial, too
commodified.
●
While this of course stirs up controversy, a documentary called The
Commodification of Hip Hop directed by Brooke Daniel interviews
students at Satellite Academy in New York City.
●
One girl talks about the epidemic of crime that she sees in urban
black and Latino communities, relating it directly to the hip hop
industry saying “When they can’t afford these kind of things, these
things that celebrities have like jewelry and clothes and all that,
they’ll go and sell drugs, some people will steal it…"
●
Many students see this as a negative side effect of the hip hop
industry, and indeed, hip hop has been widely criticized for inciting
notions of crime, violence, and American ideals of consumerism
although much of the hip-hop dancing community still chooses to
refer back to more "oldschool" types of hip-hop music that does not
preach violence and drugs.
●
In an article for Village Voice, Greg Tate argues that the
commercialization of hip hop is a negative and pervasive
phenomenon, writing that "what we call hiphop is now inseparable
from what we call the hiphop industry, in which the nouveau riche
and the super-rich employers get richer".
●
Ironically, this commercialization coincides with a decline in rap
sales and pressure from critics of the genre.
●
However, in his book In Search Of Africa, Manthia Diawara explains
that hip hop is really a voice of people who are down and out in
modern society.
●
He argues that the "worldwide spread of hip-hop as a market
revolution" is actually global "expression of poor people’s desire for
the good life," and that this struggle aligns with "the nationalist
struggle for citizenship and belonging, but also reveals the need to
go beyond such struggles and celebrate the redemption of the black
individual through tradition."
●
This connection to "tradition" however, is something that may be
lacking according to one Satellite Academy staff member who says
that in all of the focus on materialism, the hip hop community is
“not leaving anything for the next generation, we’re not building.”
●
As the hip hop genre turns 30, a deeper analysis of the music’s
impact is taking place.

●
It has been viewed as a cultural sensation which changed the music
industry around the world, but some believe commercialization and
mass production have given it a darker side.
●
Tate has described its recent manifestations as a marriage of “New
World African ingenuity and that trick of the devil known as global-
hyper-capitalism”, arguing it has joined the “mainstream that had
once excluded its originators.”
●
While hip hop's values may have changed over time, the music
continues to offer its followers and originators a shared identity
which is instantly recognizable and much imitated around the world.
THE AUDACITY OF HIP HOP
From Hip Hop World by Dalton Higgins
#2 Essay basis for Test
●
It’s a hip hop world, and you’re just living in it. For most music-
addicted earthlings, hip hop culture is the predominant global youth
subculture of today.
●
For the non-music initiated, hip hop has become the black, jewelry-
laden elephant in a room filled with rock, country and classical
music — an attentiongrabber whose influence is impossible to miss
on the daily news, in school playgrounds, during water cooler
conversations or in a political debate.
●
What is hip hop, and why should you care about it? Hip hop — a
term coined by pioneering rapper Space Cowboy in the early 1970s
to mimic a scat and then popularized later by rapper Lovebug
Starski -- is quite simply the world’s leading counterculture,
subculture and youth culture.
●
Hip hop encompasses four distinct elements: deejaying (the
manipulation of pre-recorded music), Bboyin' (dance),
rapping/emceeing (vocalizing) and graffiti (visual art).
●
For starters, curious onlookers have to acknowledge its success as a
massive chart-topping, revenue-generating music movement.
●
When rapper Jay-Z’s (Shawn Carter) American Gangster disc opened
on top of the pop charts in 2007, that gave him ten Billboard
number one albums in ten years, tying him with the King of Rock,
Elvis Presley, for the most chart-toppers by a solo artist (now up to
eleven billboard #1's- p.w.)
●
Likewise, at a time when CD sales are plummeting, rapper Lil’
Wayne’s Tha Carter III was the number one selling album of 2008 in
the US, scanning an astounding three million units.
●
Much has been written about hip hop’s gritty African American
origins in the South Bronx, but the primary American consumers are
young suburban whites whose fascination with black youth culture
has led to Caucasian rappers Eminem and the Beastie Boys
becoming creators of both the fastest selling rap album in history
(The Marshall Mathers LP), and the first rap album to go number one
on the Billboard album charts (Licensed to Ill), respectively.
●
Once a predominantly African American youth form of expression, or
as legendary hip hop group Public Enemy’s lead vocalist Chuck D
once called it, the “black people’s CNN,” rap has taken root around
the world as a primary news source for disenfranchised Asian, South
Asian, First Nations, Latin American, Australasian, African, Middle
Eastern and European publics.
●
Forty-plus years after its birth, hip hop has officially grown up and
left the ’hood. Hip hoppers own palatial estates in exclusive gated
communities and are world travelers racking up Air Miles in
abundance.
●
From New York to Nigeria, hip hop is so wildly popular that it’s
crossing continents and oceans, and by many accounts its brightest
future star might come in the form of an already wealthy, bi-racial
(Jewish/black), Lil’ Wayne tutored Canadian rapper named Drake.
●
The incorporation, appropriation and wholesale celebration of the
music has taken shape internationally, far from its American
birthplace.
●
Take Japan, where despite language barriers many Japanese youth
have aped African American rappers’ stylings by tanning their skin
dark brown (anguro or “blackface”) and wearing cornrows and
dreadlocks.
●
In Cuba, former president Fidel Castro refers to rap music as the
“vanguard of the Revolution.”
●
In Iran, heads of state complain that rap’s obscene lyrics diminish
Islamic values and its influence is so pervasive that it has been
officially banned.
●
In France, it’s considered the unofficial voice of the banlieues — the
impoverished suburbs where African and Arab youth have staged
violent anti-racism riots.
●
Native American and aboriginal Canadian youth work out of the
tradition of spoken-word iconoclast John Trudell, rapping out against
past and present wrongdoings in their respective reserves and
communities.
●
In North America, no comparable art form or music genre draws so
many multiculti consumers to cash registers, music downloading
websites and live concerts.
●
Cultural critics point out that at rock n’ roll, classical or country
music concerts, sometimes the only things that are “of color” are
the stage curtains — and even them curtains ain’t got no soul. Rap
music, on the other hand, is anti-classical, a UN-friendly music with
dozens upon dozens of subgenres to accommodate and account for
the full range of experiences that make up the human condition —
irrespective of one’s race, gender, age or geography.

●
If you’re gay or lesbian, there’s a burgeoning Homo Hop movement.
●
If you like your violence and sex gratuitous, there are large Gangsta
Rap and Horrorcore Rap factions.
●
If you’re Jewish or a born-again Christian, the Klezmer or Christian
Rap scenes might suit your fancy.
●
And if you’re a geek and rap music altogether seems too hipster and
cool to comprehend, there’s a large Nerdcore Rap movement where
you and fellow squares can sink your cerebellums into raps about
deoxyribonucleic acid patterns and nuclear physics.
●
Hip hop’s adaptability becomes even more marked internationally
because at its genesis rap music essentially involves creating
something out of nothing.
●
During the 1980s, Reaganomics wiped out inner-city school music
funding programs in the US, leaving low-income youth to their own
devices.
●
Manipulating vinyl records on turntables to make music replaced
violin and horn sections, and spoken-word diatribes replaced
organized vocal choir practices.
●
Today, in a similar vein, Native American youth on reserves don’t
need to be classically trained in a music instrument or attend a
costly music conservatory to create rap music.
●
And neither do youth in Africa, the poorest continent in the world,
where the rap scene is blossoming at a faster pace than in any other
region.
●
Groups can simply utilize their lips, tongues and mouths to create
the vocal percussion music—or “human beat box” sounds usually

created by drum machine-produced beats — that forms the
backbone of some of the best universal rap tracks of all time, like
“La Di Da Di” by Doug E. Fresh.
●
But don’t get it twisted. The world is not a greater place because of
rap music.
●
The genre is not a panacea for global famine, nor is it encouraging
us to hold hands and sing kumbaya with our multicultured brothers
and sisters around the planet.
●
Not even close. Rap music actually dominates headlines for being
quite the opposite — an unrepentant outlaw music that magnifies
the darker side of black.
●
Despite societal well-wishers hoping to see some sort of Obamaian
racial progress shift taking place under the aegis of hip hop, when
we look at real measurements of equality — access to education,
housing, politics — we can see that it’s just not happening fast
enough.
●
Sure, youth from around the world from all cultural backgrounds are
downloading the same Young Jeezy songs as a collective global unit
and fanbase.
●
But the economic conditions between them aren’t changing much.
●
What exactly are privileged Western rap audiences — who are
listening to the same rap music as say youth in Brazilian favelas —
doing to eradicate extreme poverty in Rio? Isn’t that what rap was
intended to do — speak and act out against oppression — not just
rhyme and dance to it?
●
This is the crafty nature of rap.
●
It acts as a virtual magnet for controversy and scandal because rap
music’s vanguards spend much of their recording time replaying
what the real issues are, including what dystopia looks, smells and
feels like, with their words.
●
It’s a pure artistic response to oppression — protest music where art
truly imitates life, its music intended to play back society’s most
celebratory and inflammatory aspects.
●
Once a form of social protest in the United States, rap appears to be
anything but that now.
●
Outside of the US, where rap music is articulating and addressing
local political and social concerns, it presents a remarkable contrast.
●
Tapping into hip hop’s potential as a force for social change should
be easy to realize, given that it boasts an active, captive, global
youth base.
●
But can we realistically expect solutions to complex world problems
from teens and twenty-something rappers? More importantly, is hip
hop immune from the same historical processes that turned
historically black musics like jazz and rock n’ roll into pale shades of
their former selves, genres enjoyed, profited from and largely
consisting of performers from every other ethnic group but that of
the creators?
●
As for the future of rap, are performers still able to sing the blues, or
authentically rap about the ’hood, when some of the conditions that
created rap have changed? Or since its vanguards such as so-called
“gangsta” rappers Ice Cube and Snoop Doggy Dogg have become
multimillionaires? Before we can penetrate these debates and
project where hip hop is going, we have to understand where hip
hop music culture came from in the first place, where it is now and
how it works.

After examining these data for all the jurisdictions, someone notes that certain areas have an unusually high "percent of
population 25 years and over with no high school diploma." Based on this finding, this individual concludes that the high
percentages are due to the rising population of immigrants in those areas. Further, the individual argues that any estimates
of the associated "percent of people in poverty" in those areas should be recalculated after removing this sub-population
from the data set, as they are causing the area to "look bad".
In addition to thinking critically, use the key rules about linear regression and extrapolation to write a statistically
appropriate response that also takes into account ethics and social responsibility. (This response should be at least a
paragraph in length.)
