No wrong. Jazz couldnt have started anywhere but new orleans, hip hop couldnt have started anywhere but new york. The shoulda,coulda,woulda thing doesnt work. Things like that just dont happen by chance, they are staples of a paticular city's culture. I give credit where its due. But there were people on here saying hip hop has southern roots, which is not true. Hip hop is the most urban form of music available
Oh brother!!I don't think anyone on here has said Hip Hop is Southern.Hip Hop was createdout of a music form that existed before it.You can no more dismiss the the influence of Jazz and Blues as you can the nature of those origins that came from Africa.Jazz and Blues begot ,Ragtime,Country,Rock,Gospel,R&B,Soul,Pure Soul,Neo-Soul,Disco,then came Hip Hop.Do you think " "rappers" were the first to spit rhymes?Do you know what "call and response is"?
There is culture and sub culture.Hip Hop is a sub culture.Its and off shoot of black culture from its creation from the slave ships as they crossed the middle passage.They were not allowed to practice their culture from Africa.So they created ways that they could hide what they were doing by mixing their songs and beats with their European master's religion and ways that were a part of everyday life..

Some of those points are ridiculous. Hip hop an off shoot of black slave culture? Hip hop was created in the seventies in a much different environment than the south
Where are the jazz and blues influences? Hip hop sounds nothing like any of those genres. Why is it so hard to believe that somethig can be original

"Rapping" didn't begin in the Northeast though.....
We dont know where he got the term from. Regardless if they both share the name rap. Joe tex sounds nothing like rap they have no musical connection what so ever. I just showed you what tex does, and how it sounds nothing like rap.
