More than a musical style, hip-hop is a history of American culture, and a testimony by its artists of their life experiences. In 1985, when Run-DMC ordained themselves the "Kings of Rock," in their lyrics of their hit song of the same name, they probably never imagined that one day they would be recognized as such. As the pioneers of hip-hop music, they convinced the world to dance to poetry with a beatbox. They invited anyone who would listen to "Walk This Way" in "My Adidas," all the way to the top of VH1's list of the "50 Greatest Hip-Hop Artists." And in the words of the great Run-DMC themselves, "It's like that! And that's the way it is! Huh!"

The lyrics found in hip hop music are expressions that are linked with cultural and societal feelings of an individual. Hip hop lyrics are known for their conversational quality. Hip hop lyrics are used to teach stylistic features, imagery, assonance, alliteration, rhythmic structure and rhyme are taught while basic literacy (vowels, consonants, blends, syllables and spelling) is embedded.

Hip hop lyrics typically employ inner-city slang with poetic devices such as alliteration, assonance and rhyme. The slang of hip hop lyrics may include words like, yo, dis, flow, phat and homie. Hip hop lyrics have been likened to what rock music lyrics used to be, and in some cases have taken the place of rock and folk songs within the culture. Hip hop lyrics contain many references that the listeners can relate to. Hip hop lyrics that tell of excess wealth and luxury of artists may connect to a group of individuals with such dreams.

As in the language, hip hop lyrics are poetry, but poetry with something more added to it. Some hip hop lyrics are extremely articulate in that they express a certain subject in a different form. Though it is true that many hip hop lyrics are slang it is also true that much of our commonly spoken language is slang and sometimes vulgar. Hence, allowing us to see that there is a difference between descriptive and prescriptive language.

Adding to the hip hop music and song lyrics, dancing is another element of the hip hop culture better known as the hip hop dance style. Hip hop dance is a collaborative movement that continually grows and evolves through individual improvisation. Hip hop dance is an art form that has the nation and world trying to one-two step or breakdance to krumping.

Hip hop music and dancing, or breaking, rose in the 1970's and 1980's, centered on urban communities of young dancers and musicians and their popular culture.
Hip hop dancing continues to evolve into many different forms today, heavily influenced by the evolution of music and its popularity in the media.

Hip-hop is a strenuous dance style that involves using the entire body to create sharp, expressive movements. As in all dance forms, hip hop dance is a technique with defined steps and movements that must be learned and practiced.

Hip hop music is a popular style of music. It is everywhere from commercials to television sitcoms. Hip hop culture and music range from those akin to mainstream popular music to the blues version of the human condition. There is a big influence of R&B in the hip hop music industry that provides an exhilarating experience to the listener. This urban culture is sweeping the world in music, movies and clubs. It is truly an American minority creation which deserves more credit and recognition as an art form rather than as a fad which should just fade away with time.
