There are numerous music genres that people love to listen to. It is identified by its rhythmic sound made by beats from the drum and its lyrics are rhymed. It can be done through chanting, which is what rap is basically all about. Since the foundation of this culture, there are also subcultures that root from this.

The instruments being used here are usually percussion and turntables. In the later developments, it has incorporated beatboxing as well, which is done by creating a drum like beat using the mouth. Many are already skilled with this. Then dubstep came which is also one of the beats being used in rap. Local hip hop Fort Lauderdale, FL has so many talents to showcase. Some of them are independent or indie artists.

It does not follow that a hip hop artist should be a rapper. There is a misconception that it is only about rap. Actually, it also includes DJing, scratching, and even in arts, specifically the creation of graffiti.

This culture is very rich and any tourist who can come south will have fun in local clubs and bars playing this genre. Even on the streets, you can find kids practicing breakdance routines. This originated from the creativity of the African American culture.

The African Americans are known for their talents in singing and rapping. Soon enough, they have influenced the Whites. Eminem enumerated a variety of influences and they are mostly Black American rappers and musicians.

It was even mixed with rock or metal early in two thousands. Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Crazy Town, and a lot more, were the names that anyone usually drops when asked about rap metal. This is another subculture of both hip hop and metal music. But this has become controversial, especially because of the lyrics and the influence of the artists.

Lil Wayne, Kanye, West and Eminem are the bad boys of rap. They talk about anything like drugs, alcoholism, and perverted topics. They also curse without limits. Their songs are filtered with cursing when they are airplayed but they have explicit albums that anyone can buy or download directly. There is no way of knowing if the people purchasing or downloading are already at the right age.

On the other hand, it has positive effects when it comes to art and expressionism. Its continuous evolution has influenced the generation to become more experimental and creative. Flip top, for example, is a form of expressionism, which is done artistically using rap. And this is part of the subculture. However, its element is not really morally beneficial because it encourages mocking, racism, and degradation of the personality of the opponent.

The reaction to the music, its lyrics and the behavior of artists will differ from one person to another. It is very difficult to assume that this person is either negatively or positively influenced by the music. There are differences in psychological and social orientation which could affect them differently and at various depths.
