Hip-Hop is a youth subculture that emerged in the United States in the late 1970s. Hip-hop originated in the African-American environment of the Bronx, New York. Legend has it that this movement was started by DJ Cool Herk, who launched the word "b-boys" (short for "break boys"), ie "broken boys", those who dance break. But society has deciphered it as "bad boys" (hooligans).

At the time, hip-hop was party music created by disc jockeys (abbreviated as "DJs"), working in the then primitive Cool herc1 sampling technique: it was mostly a repetition of the musical loss of someone else's dance composition, often a percussion. The first "MCs" were literally typical entertainers ("Master of Ceremony" - that is, abbreviated MC), they represented DJs, and also supported the audience with energetic shouts and whole tirades.

Hip-hop includes 4 main elements: DJing, graffiti, emsing, breaking. Street knowledge is also often considered to be the 5th basic element. By the early 1990s, hip-hop had become part of youth culture in many countries around the world. Although the above elements together make up hip-hop as a subculture, they live a separate life.
