5 elements of hip hop


These are the 5 elements of hip hop you should know:
-graffiti
-rap
-DJing
-breaking/b-boying (also referred to as breakdancing. I personally don't like using the term "breakdance" because it's been invented by the media)
-culture, knowledge, understanding, wisdom, peace, love, unity, fun

By the way, b-boying is the only real hip hop dance. That's what it all started with. Locking, popping, or whatever else is to be seen as "cousins" of hip hop. Breaking is the original dance of hip hop!
