Rap is a musical genre that is a rhythmic text that is read to music with a beat. The genre differs from oral poetry in that rap is performed with musical accompaniment.
The musical direction began to take shape in the 70s of the last century. Rap was popular among African Americans in the Bronx. Jamaican DJs brought him to this area. At the origins of the birth of the genre is Kool Herc.
When the music genre was in its infancy, it was music for entertainment and parties. Rappers did not pursue commercial goals. Over time, DJs began selling cassettes of their own recordings. Art critics consider the single Rapper's Delight to be the first track in this style, which was skillfully read by The Sugarhill Gang.
There are three main styles of rap music:
- Old School Rap (fast tempo of text delivery to musical accompaniment).
- Southern Rap. (reading lyrics to driving music).
- Underground Rap. (Debunking classic stereotypes).
