From a professional perspective, what are the differences between hip-hop and shouting?

First of all, the origins are different. Hip-hop music originated from the black Hip-Hop culture. Shouting is an evolution of the "begging words" similar to beggars in old Chinese society with a simple rhythm.

Second. Hip-hop is original music composed of lyrics, music, flow, and arrangement. Shouting Mai cannot be called "music". Hip-hop music is an internationally recognized music genre with cultural depth and a long history of development. Because calling Mai can't be recognized by others, he calls himself "alternative".

Thirdly, hip-hop exists in almost every country and is loved by the public. Shoumai does not exist anywhere except China. For the same reason, Shoumai calls itself the "quintessence of the country" (speaking of this) I really want to spit out dirty words).

Four. The lyrics of hip-hop music are created to express real life and attitudes, reflecting social reality. The lyrics have deep and cultural connotations as well as the author's personal style. Most of the lyrics written by Shoumai are mainly about time travel, obscene fantasies, and bragging. They often include "yesterday's emperor, a soldier's life, tens of thousands of brothers, and a battlefield." There is a serious lack of cultural knowledge, which is extremely low and meaningless.

Fourth: Rap is a musical discipline that is designed with profound lyrics and exquisite flow techniques. Shoumai has no musicality or technical content at all.

Fifth: Hip-hop music is original music. Shoumai steals 90% of the accompaniments and lyrics of hip-hop music and adapts it into a vulgar and negative energy strange product, and steals the true meaning of MC to call itself.

Among them, a group of "well-known" singers, led by MC Tianyou and MC Mengke, stole dozens of songs from the Xinjiekou group. "Friends for Ten Years" was changed into several versions such as "The Sun is Just Right and the Breeze is Not Dry" and "Brothers Are Not Easy" without the author's consent. "Rouge on the Neck" was also changed to "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom 2" and so on. Specifically, you can listen to the Xinjiekou group's song "Shout Mai, Call You MLB" and pay attention to the Xinjiekou group's "Toutiao account". I won't explain it further here.

In short, shouting Mai is a short-term explosive cultural haze created by the gathering of extremely low-educated people on the Internet, which has brought great mental distress to the majority of people. . Hip-hop is a music that has developed over time and is gradually loved by most people. It is also an art form that creates value for society.

Personally, I think there are several differences between shouting and rapping.

The first is the different cultural backgrounds. Rap ??is a major element in hiphop culture. It originated from the slums of black people, while shouting Mai is an emerging performance form in China, which is different from rap. The biggest difference is the difference in melody and flow. The original tones of the language are used to describe the content, and pop music is used as background arrangement. It is more like a traditional Chinese allegro or a modern form of two-person speaking.

Furthermore, when it comes to flow, it means a change in rhythm. Rap ??has more changes in flow, while singing is more regular.

Everyone has their own preferences. After all, every culture has its own meaning.

When the freestyle meme became popular, "China Has Hip Hop", an Internet variety show that claimed to have invested 200 million, also became a hot topic among netizens and the media.

In China, hip-hop music is a very niche music, and its activity is not as active as folk songs and rock music.

However, with the broadcast of the program "Hip-Hop in China", people discovered that there are more people playing hip-hop music in China than imagined.

Many niche arts and cultures, through the promotion of popular TV programs, have entered the public eye, often expanding the boundaries of their original circles and attracting audiences who have never been exposed to them or who think they will not be interested in them.

Folk ballads are an example, appearing frequently in music programs. Zhao Lei's song "Chengdu" was sung on the stage of "Singer 2017" and even became popular all over the country.

So, after the program "Hip-Hop in China" was launched, many people also speculated whether hip-hop, a trendy culture, would no longer be limited to its own circle, but would also bring in non-hip-hop fans. Audience, get excited together.

As an audience, if you are not sure whether you can appreciate this kind of niche culture, why not let us try to understand it first.

After being obsessed with freestyle for a week, the entertainer felt that it was unreasonable to not understand what "hip-hop" is.

The following is the compulsory popular science of the entertainment industry

Hip-hop

Hip-hop (Hip-hop) consists of two separate English slang terms. "Hip" is a vernacular English word that appeared in African Americans as early as 1898, meaning aware and aware. "Hop" means jumping movement.

In 1978, "Cowboy" Keith Wiggins, a member of the hip-hop group Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, was the first to combine the two words.

He imitated the rhythm and melody of marching soldiers by singing "hip, hop, hip, hop" quickly. To tease a friend of his who had just joined the U.S. Army.

It wasn't long before Keith was bringing this "hip-hop" rhythm to his performances, and it was quickly adopted by other artists.

As a subculture with rich connotations, hip-hop is extremely inclusive.

In a narrow sense, hip-hop is a cultural combination of street dance, rap, DJ, beatbox and graffiti. In a broad sense, elements such as street basketball, skateboarding, and extreme sports that are familiar to hipsters are also influenced by hip-hop culture.

It is generally believed that hip-hop culture originated in the slums of New York, USA in the 1970s. At that time, New York introduced a large number of immigrants from Jamaica and the Caribbean, and hip-hop music and culture emerged in New York under the influence of African-American and Latino youth.

What is presented in the program "Hip Hop in China" is mainly hip-hop music;

But in hip-hop culture, Hip Hop dance actually also plays a large role , and is very popular.

Hip-hop is a general term for hip-hop dance. According to the style of dance, it can also be divided into: Breaking (break dance), Freestyle (yes, you read that right, there are also freestyle dances), Poppin ( Mechanical dance), Locking (lock dance), Hiphop (hip hop dance), House, Jazz (jazz dance), Raggae (reggae dance).

It is the first time for domestic audiences to see hip-hop music appearing in a talent show.

In contrast, there are not many opportunities to show off hip-hop dance skills in TV shows.

In many variety shows, Hip Hop Dance will be used as a performance item to show off.

In previous dance talent competitions (such as "So You Think You Can Dance"), street dance contestants also attracted a lot of attention.
