AFRICAN AMERICAN FUN• . For the first time, rap appeared in the 1970s among African-Americans in the Bronx area,
where he was "exported" by visiting Jamaican DJs. In particular, the founder of rap called DJ
Kool Herc. They did not rap for commercial purposes initially, but for the sake of pleasure, and
at first they were mainly DJs.

EXPRESS YOUR THOUGHTS THROUGH RAP• Rap is one of the most specific and controversial music genres that has emerged over the past
decade. Rap is a significant part of hip hop culture. It expresses the experience of the existence
of African-Americans in various border situations: from life in the context of racial stereotypes
to the struggle for survival in the harsh conditions of the ghetto. In these cultural conditions,
rap gives the voiceless, this voice, the oppressed, it gives a form of protest, to those who are on
the sidelines of society and culture, he gives a model of an alternative style of culture and an
identity model. Thus, rap is not only music for dancing and parties, but also a form of cultural
identity with great potential. It has become a very effective means of cultural and political
expression, a kind of “CNN for blacks,” or their “satellite communications system,” in an
environment where the stakes on high technology are rising. Over time, rap has become a
cultural virus, its images, sounds and worldview are in circulation throughout the cultural and
political sphere.
