The annals of rap music wouldn’t be complete without a look at the performers who make it all possible – the rap musician s. Virtually all rap music typically includes one or more rappers who often rap about their personal individual life stories, vital parties in their lives, or social problems they wish to make a public statement about. Rap tunes could also represent romanticized or fictional themes. The sky is the limit. Musically, rap tunes often have a strong rhythmic aspect with the spoken lyrics emulating the intense rhythm of the beat. Rap tunes are known to make use of a lot of poetic techniques including simple word rhymes and alliteration.
The annals of rap music also shows that the instrumental track or beat performed by the deejay often includes the rhythms and beat “samplings” from popular and/or well-known funk, rock, or soul tunes. The sampled sounds and rhythms are synthesized, integrated, and reinvented with original twists by the performers.
Two other highly popular facets of rap music that saw their fast growth into the American mainstream are break dancing and tagging (graffiti). Break dancers and taggers are now stars in their personal right with loyal followers and fans throughout the world. Annual break dancing competitions are now wonderfully popular even in countries throughout Europe and Asia. The annals of rap music may be considered relatively new, yet it is undeniable ly a dynamic influence in today ’s music world. In fact,  the musical influence of New York(NY) City African American and Latino culture is now as pervasive globally as fast food hamburger chains.
