Rap and the rap genre
Rap emerged in the 1970s when DJ Kool Herc asked his friend Coke La Rock to accompany him while playing music at a party. Coke La Rock spit the first rap verse, helping establish rap as a new genre of music. Early influential rap artists included Run-D.M.C., Whodini, Grandmaster Flash, and Kurtis Blow. Stereotypes that rap artists are often subjected to include being seen as rich, dangerous gang members who only care about money, sex, drugs, and rap. However, some stereotypes emerged from real issues like racial prejudice and unfair policing faced by black rappers in the US. Rivalries between rappers also contributed to perceptions of violence as rap
Hiphop genre

Gangsta rap
This document discusses the genre of gangsta rap and its portrayal of African American culture.

Through graphic lyrics and music videos, gangsta rap reinforces the false ideas that African American culture is defined by violence, objectification of women, and a need to flaunt wealth. While gangsta rap aims to express the realities of urban life, it actually confirms prejudiced views of African Americans held by white audiences and influences young people to emulate harmful behaviors.
The Hip Hop Effect
Rap music originated in the 1970s as a means for inner city youth to express their struggles. Over time, as gangsta rap rose in popularity in the late 1980s and 1990s, the content of rap lyrics increasingly glorified criminal lifestyles like drug dealing and violence. This influenced youth, especially in low-income African American communities, to emulate these behaviors. Additionally, the commercialization of rap by the mainstream music industry has promoted negative stereotypes of African Americans through controlling the marketing and images associated with the genre.
Hip hop
Hip-hop music originated in the 1970s in the African American and Latino communities in New York. It began as a mixture of spoken words and jazz but later incorporated rapping lyrics performed over beats. In the 1980s, hip-hop grew significantly with more labels and became popular worldwide. However, violence between rival artists brought negative attention to the genre. Famous feuds like the East Coast-West Coast rivalry led to the deaths of Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac. While some artists promote violence, many argue hip-hop's real intention is not to promote this and certain artists steer clear of stereotypical subjects.

Research Paper on Hip-hop Culture
The “hip-hop culture” has infused popular culture in an extraordinary fashion. As a result of its massive cross-over appeal, the hip-hop culture is a hypothetically great unifier of various populations. Even though created by black youth on the streets, hip-hop's influence has turned out to be worldwide. About 75 in a hundred of the rap and hip-hop audience is non-black. It has gone from the fringes, to the outskirts, and now into the commercial boardrooms. Undeniably, Coca Cola, Nike, McDonald's, Sprite, and other corporate giants have exploited on this hip hop culture phenomenon. Although criticizers of the rap music and the hip hop culture appeared to be consumed with the messages of violence, sex, and harsh language, this category of music offers us an example of what can be done. The capacity of this art form to transform ethnic relations is significant. In the 1950s and the 1960s the “Beat Culture” questioned the status quo in ways that integrated liberals and provoked change. In the same manner, the hip-hop culture has confronted the system in approaches that have brought together individuals (particularly the youth) across a wide-range ethnic spectrum (Watkins, 1998).
Currently, hip-hop/rap is the fastest emergent music genre in the United States, representing more than 10% of the $12.3 billion music sales in the year 1998. Rap music has turned out to be the cornerstone of the hip-hop culture. The general hip hop culture has been recognized by this musical art form. The language (street slang), dressing (baggy pants, expensive sneakers, caps worn backwards), and style of the hip-hop culture have all developed from rap music.
To illustrate the widespread popularity of rap, in line with Soundscan, an enterprise in the Hartsdale, N.Y. that scrutinizes music sales, at the end of the year 1998, 9 out of the 15 albums that were on the pop chart were rap. At the end of the same year, 3 of the top retailing albums were rap performances: Outkast, Jay Z, and A Tribe Call Quest. As stated by Neil Strauss, rap is substituting rock and roll as the supreme genre of music among the youth. 10 years ago, in the environs you heard teenagers talking about music from such rock artists as the Van Halen, Byrds, the Eagles, Doors, and Guns `N' Roses. At present, youths are exploding rap music from such artist as Outkast and Jay Z.
DJ Hollywood, Busy Bee Starski, and DJ Afrika Bambaataa (forefather of the Zulu Nation in the New York) are the three New York artistes who have been recognized for coining the phrase “hip hop”. This genre instigated in the`70s with rhythmic beats resonating at base.
Rap Music And Its Effects On Society
Rap music has faced criticism and controversy over its perceived influence on society. While some view rap as promoting violence and criminal lifestyles, supporters argue that it realistically portrays lived experiences and can have social benefits when used as an outlet for expression. Gangsta rap emerged in the late 1980s, shocking listeners with explicit lyrics but authentically telling stories from communities facing racism, poverty, and other challenges. Debates continue over rap's impact and whether it reflects or shapes societal issues.

As stated by Neil Strauss, rap is substituting rock and roll as the supreme genre of music among the youth. 10 years ago, in the environs you heard teenagers talking about music from such rock artists as the Van Halen, Byrds, the Eagles, Doors, and Guns `N' Roses.
