[edit] Hip Hop

Alternative Hip Hop vs. Underground Rap Alternative hip hop]] in short, is that collective of scenes that are not part of the mainstream (i.e. not Gangsta, bling, pop-rap, etc). Common Sense, Black Eyed Peas are considered alternative, but are mainstream to varying degrees. Many of the "hardest" Gangsta rap artists exist in hip hop underground. Some Artists bounce back and forth between the Underground and mainstream, while some record all alternative music in the mainstream. Underground hip hop, in short, is the collective of artists and their respective works that is not signed to a "major label"._akin to indie rock. Alternative artists can sell millions of units without Sounds of Hip Hop / Eras / Scenes

Special Notes

  • In 2000, Nelly (Country Grammar) of the St. Lunatics out of St. Louis led a revolution of Midwestern acknowlegement in hip hop, though the region has yet to have yielded a unified sound or trend in any way. Cities such as Chicago and Detroit tend to draw more influence from the East Coast, while St. Louis and Cincinnati appear, and sound more Southern.
  • "Planet Rock" by Afrika Bambaataa and Run DMC's very basic, all electronic "Sucker MCs" and "Peter Piper" which contains genuine cutting by Run DMC member Jam Master Jay.The latter group of recordings could, while still very debatable, have marked the beginning of "true" hip hop music as opposed to simply rapped verses over funk or disco songs (from this point of view pre-hip hop funk/disco songs which happen to be rapped over). These early innovators were based out of New York City, which remained the capital of hip hop during the 1980s. This style became known as East Coast hip hop.
  • East Coast hip hop music, as a sound, began in the late 1980s when styles of rapping began to diversify greatly. The style is marked by importance of lyricism. The sound became harder, and the beats more modern.
