Rap and Hip Hop: Crash Course Black American History #47

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
Music is an integral part of Black American culture. Today, Clint Smith will teach you about rap & hip hop, and the cultural significance of artists including Public Enemy, Wu-Tang Clan, the Notorious B. I. G, Tupac, N. W. A, Queen Latifah, and Missy Elliott. And he just might break dance while doing it. CasaVipera: This is all supercool and all. But don't you think there also ought to be a black history-jazz, black history-blues, black history R&B black history-soul AND black history rock & roll episode? Because the black community litterally invented those genres (and without them we'd probably only have lame-ass country to listen to)

I have worked in studio production and as a touring musician for many years. 90% of music, of any genre is conceived to sell units. Social messaging, in music is coincidental and arises out of demand. Most artists like their message and support it, but if something else was selling, that's what they would be doing. That's how business works, and music is a business.

I am mad because I just used a much less good video to discuss the origins of hiphop in my Minorities in American society class, and if this had come out one day earlier I could have used this one! Keep up the good work yall!

Brings me back to my research for architecture graduation +10y ago. Wish I had this resource back then.
It was difficult to convince people hip-hop isn't just gangsta rap and everything associated with that sub genre.

Interesting timing. Lord Jamar and alot of the O. G. 's that are still here from that era have been debating this very topic on the scene/streams lately

Good episode but shocked to see Dj Cool Herc not mentioned. He was a contemporary of Grandmaster Flash and literally called the grandfather of hip hop.
