The block parties were helpful in bringing whole communities together, which they wouldn’t have been if it wasn’t for the DJs.

One thing I learned in class was that “ Rapper’s Delight” ( what I’ve always known to be the first rap song) was a sample from “ Good times” The DJ has the most important
This allowed young people to see a world not as readily available before and in today’s contemporary society with new music genre’s increasing; there has also been an increasing demand for music videos to accompany it. In this essay I will be analysing music videos in one of music’s two most popular genres – Hip Hop and Rock. These two genres differ and this translates not only musically but visually. I am to investigate whether these two genres fit the stereotypical criteria of the media, or whether they have been portrayed in the wrong way -hypothesis the stereotypical view (elaborate) -i have used both primary and secondary research in order to carry out this investigation -focus group (use quotes) - Hip hop music videos have always been a controversial topic amongst audiences as it is a genre that is known to exaggerate and encourage a patriarchal way of living which many female audiences would be opposed to.

In the article, Blackface minstrelsy and Jacksonian Ideology, we are introduced to the founders that began the blackface minstrelsy. Among the four that have been credited with the creation of blackface shows are; Thomas Rice, Dan Emmett, E. P. Christy, and Stephen Foster.

Drawing his inspirations from the Notorious B.I.G. and 2Pac; Pyrex Jones aims to follow the same loose and easy flow. He also wishes to incorporate some of the social problems including: hardships, difficulties of violence, and some of the ethnic and racial dilemmas.

PLAYLIST "This Land Was Ourz" - War Party Hip-Hop originated from a New York DJ known as Kool Herc. He mixed spoken rhyme with reggae and it was well received in the New York crowd.
