=__The history of hip hop music old school vs. new school__= What is Hip Hop you might ask? It's a celebration, a style, a sway, a walk, a talk. Hip hop is everything. Sadly it is changing for the worse. In the 1980's-1990's hip hop was listened to and loved by many. Hip Hop started in the the 1970's in New York City in the South Bronx. Now hip hop has spread all over, the east, the west, the south and last but not least the midwest.

I am Telling the history about hip hop and how it started. Also where it started and the time era.

=**__Modern Hip Hop Problems__**= Today this era there have been problems about some of the Hip hop and rap that has been put out to this world today. Its not as much of a problem as it was in 1996-2005 where they're were some degrading music videoes and lyrics to African Americans like video women and nice cars with rims. Everytime a video came out like this there would always be some type of argument would spark between the artist and the media. Rap has also caused the problems of saggy pants and the stereotype of Young African american men. It has also causes more and more black men to be searched or shot at for crimes they didn't commit. It has also caused people to look at black women as if their nothing to the world but items. They have also impacted greatly on the youth of today with the language and messages they send to our minds. Recently there have been more powerful messages in 2008 and more positive songs. Even though the language might not have changed it has lessened more than it has been before. Rappers are trying to limit themselves and are now more aware of whats going on in the world. More rap is about the elections and getting more people and kids involved now.

__**Act I**__ Dr. ThatDudette: Hello Viewers I am Dr. ThatDudette, capital D in dude thank you very much. I have come to you guys today asking what is hip hop?? Is it baggy pants, or having your fitted turned to the side. Or is it explicet lyrics and horrible messages. Well its both but hip hop is more than that. Back in the day and today still there are artists that have limits to this such as people like Kanye West, Run-Dmc, Rakim, Will Smith, A Tribe called Quest, De la Soul, Lupe Fiasco, and Talib Kweli. There are also rappers who give strong and empowering messages such as Tupac, Nas, Common, Public Enemy, Queen Latifa, and KRS-One. So I will be going around campus and asking what people think and know of hip hop along With Dr.Narin and Dr. Jack Now lets go on our epic journey.
