Hip Hop Culture by Emmett G. Price pg279-348

Summary
Hip hop has changed a great deal since its creation. It went from having a meaning or an inspirational message. Because of the people, hip hop artists were forced to change to fit demand. As we all know, money and sex sells so they were forced to wrap what they had to say around that. Today, many people talk about how hip hop is dead, but isn't we, the people's fault? The people influence the way artists make their music.


Quote
"Hip hop has changed because the interest of people has changed" (Price 327)



Reaction
A lot people are saying that hip hop is dead. Isn't it what people make it to be? That's weird how people say hip hop is dead when we all influence it.

  1. the interest? Nah, it is the audience for hip hop who has changed, and the way artists look for this new audience...
