Open Cyphers before each show
The 80’s marked Hip Hop’s coming out party to the world. Fueled by the work of Afrika Bambaataa and The Universal Zulu Nation, Hip Hop had now solidified as a culture represented by four main elements. The world was beginning to take notice of the DJ’s, BBoys, Emcee’s and Graffiti writers that were coming out of New York’s boroughs. Hip Hop’s music and dance begins its explosion into main stream culture.
The Journey Continues
By the 1990’s Hip Hop had begun to divide. Rap was fast becoming one of music’s most dominant genres, but the other elements found themselves left behind. Faced with this division, many of Hip Hop’s elements returned to their underground roots. Hip Hop arts continued to grow and evolve, leading to a resurgence that help make Hip Hop one of the most dominate subcultures in the world today.
