An influence on toprock was uprock which was created in Brooklyn, New York. Breaking at this period was not primarily floor-oriented as seen today it started out as toprock which dancers perform while standing up. In its earliest form, it began as elaborations on James Brown's " Good Foot" dance which debuted in 1972. Breaking was created in The Bronx, New York in the early 1970s. These include uprock, breaking, and the funk styles. Hip-hop dance is a fusion dance genre with influences from older street dance styles created in the 1970s. It can also be a way to stay active in competitive dance and a way to make a living by dancing professionally. Hip-hop dance can be a form of entertainment or a hobby. Since being exposed, educational opportunities and corporate dance competitions such as World of Dance and Hip Hop International have helped maintain its presence worldwide. What distinguishes hip-hop from other forms of dance is that it is often "freestyle" (improvisational) in nature and hip-hop dance crews often engage in freestyle dance competitions-colloquially referred to as "battles".įilms, television shows, and the Internet have contributed to introducing hip-hop dance outside the United States. Though the dance is established in entertainment, including mild representation in theater, it maintains a strong presence in urban neighborhoods which has led to the creation of street dance derivatives Memphis jookin, turfing, jerkin', and krump. The commercialization of hip-hop dance continued into the 1990s and 2000s with the production of several television shows and movies such as The Grind, Planet B-Boy, Rize, StreetDance 3D, America's Best Dance Crew, Saigon Electric, the Step Up film series, and The LXD, a web series. Because of this development, hip-hop dance is practiced in both dance studios and outdoor spaces. Classically trained dancers developed these studio styles in order to create choreography from the hip-hop dances that were performed on the street. The dance industry responded with a commercial, studio-based version of hip-hop-sometimes called "new style"-and a hip-hop influenced style of jazz dance called "jazz-funk". The television show Soul Train and the 1980s films Breakin', Beat Street, and Wild Style showcased these crews and dance styles in their early stages therefore, giving hip-hop dance mainstream exposure. It is influenced by a wide range of styles that were created in the 1970s and made popular by dance crews in the United States. Hip hop dance is a range of street dance styles primarily performed to hip hop music or that have evolved as part of hip hop culture.

As street life turned treacherous, the specter of the hustler, and whether to become one, cast a growing shadow.A b-boy performing in Turkey surrounded by a group of spectators. Dre’s work on Eazy-E’s “The Boyz-N-The Hood.” It also mirrors the crack-cocaine epidemic that began to blight and distort communities across the country. Made for surgically enhanced car and jeep stereos, the bass colossus is as much a feature of hip-hop in the mid-’80s as the pounding Roland TR-808 machine, from Rick Rubin’s production on LL Cool J’s “Rock the Bells” and T La Rock’s “It’s Yours” to Rodney O and DJ Joe Cooley’s “Everlasting Bass” and Dr. It was the sound of walloping, all-enveloping bass. Yet the third moment that catalyzed Bay Area hip-hop wasn’t a singular record like Timex Social Club’s “Rumors,” or an artist like Hammer and Short. In this long and winding history, Mosi Reeves traces the region’s evolution, recruiting tour guides and archival clips to take you back to the old school in style. Bay Area MCs have long been a fixture of the national stage - think Too Short, MC Hammer, Hieroglyphics, renowned slanguist E-40 - but they were just the prominent tip of an iceberg that reached impossibly deep.
