Not anymore. With all the influences it incorporates, with all the sub genres, finally call is classical too. Hip Hop right there seems to keep its contemporary status like forever. Nobody cared anough to keep it close to what is was, to the kind of movement it has started out as. Hip Hop is like a chameleon in the world of music. Whatever the color is out there, Hip Hop camouflages to fit that color. Today — just listen to the lyrics of the bigger part of it, the mainstream monster it has become.
Jazz still not mainstream. This commetary is in no way meant to be offensive. It is associated with certain styles of clothing and accessorries. The same happened to a genre called Gothic and to Punk, even Industrial got caught in the act. It became a fashion thing. This demented pretty much the true meaning of rapping.
Today it is about who can swear bigger times and score the most big eyes for what was said. The more offensive, the better it seems. They can claim as much as they want that it was not meant like they rapped it for their records.

Political knowledge? Hip Hop started way back in the s in the urban New York City. Breaking is among the pioneer dance moves that differentiate hip hop from other forms of dances. The dance involves oriented steps with your feet while standing — alternatively, you can do the footwork while your hands and feet are on the floor.
Other hip hop dance moves are performed on your hands, together with spins your head and shoulder. Breaking moves mostly involve a lot of floor work, flexibility and strength. Hip hop dance uses quick body movements and needs quite some athleticism — the fast moves should be seen in all body parts involved, to create an illusion-like performance. These two genders have been not only embraced by Americans, but also by other cultures around the world.
And although jazz first made its appearance in music, hip-hop has transcended from being just a musical genre to a complete cultural movement.
In these times, hip-hop is associated with break dance, graffiti and even with a certain style of clothing and accessories. Certain lexical words that are frequently heard among young generations have been attributed to the hip-hop culture.
In fact, DJ Afrika Bambaataa, one of the pioneers of hip-hop, said that there are five pillars that constitute the culture of hip-hop: rapping, being a DJ, break dance, graffiti, writing and knowledge.
