I love rap and hip hop music. I love the beats and bass lines, and the rhythmic beatboxing.
I like a few songs, but not many. I find they use too much explicit language for my taste.
Hip hop is actually characterized by nine elements, but only four of them are considered most necessary to understand hip hop musically.
What kind of elements are those, I don't think I've heard that before.
It is not just music, it is a subculture and art movement. There is a lot more to it than the vulgar lyrics.
