Hip hop music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (5492 words)
Hip hop music is also erroneously used at times to describe related genres of music, such as contemporary RandB, which are primarily sung; while singing is commonly present in hip-hop songs, the main vocal (assuming there are vocals) is almost always rapped.
Hip hop music is a part of hip hop, a cultural movement that includes the activities of breakdancing and graffiti art, as well as associated slang, fashion and other elements.
Contemporary hip hop fashion includes the wearing of baggy jeans slung low around the waist, gold or platinum chains and boots or a fresh pair of kicks, and bandanas or doo rags tied around the head often worn with a baseball cap on top) ; these elements are more typical of men than women.
