Hip-hop is a street culture developed by African-Americans, and it is a kind of exercise to vent emotions. It is characterized by strong explosive force, and the movements of limbs are exaggerated compared with other dances. The most attractive thing is to bring a warm feeling with the vitality of the whole body.
Classification: According to the movements, street dance can be divided into two categories: Hip-Hop and Breaking. Street dance can generally be divided into two types, one is personal skill street dance. Personal Skills Hip-hop is the earliest popular hip-hop because it can reflect the energetic side of young people. Many of their ground movements, such as somersault, handstand and bouncing, are high-skilled personal hip-hop performances. The other is group street dance, which is a popular form of street dance at present. It reflects the needs of the public, and it is relatively simple to jump and has a strong sense of rhythm. It has both the feeling of dancing and the function of fitness. Therefore, collective street dance is more common at present.
Open circuit:
Skillful street dance requires dancers to have high strength, flexibility and coordination. It is a highly skilled sports dance, so it was first loved by domestic teenagers. Teenagers who dance this type of dance are called B-Boy/B-Girl.
In 1980s, DJ Kool Herc, known as the "father of hip-hop", created the concept of B-Boy, also known as Breaking Boy. Every year, many countries in the world hold some competitions for B-Boys, the most famous of which are the annual BOTY(B-Boy of The Year) and the B-Boy Championship held in Britain. Hundreds of players from more than 65,438+00 countries will take part in such activities. The winner of the competition will soon become famous and become the star of teenagers.
Hip hop music:
Hip-hop is translated into hip-hop and rap is translated into rap. These two concepts are different. Hip-Hop is actually not a musical term, but a cultural term, including rap, graffiti, street dance and DJ disc playing. Singing originated in the 1960s, while hip-hop as a musical understanding originated in the early 1970s. Its predecessor is RAP (sometimes with a little R(B)).
Literally, Hip-Hop is Hip, Hop is hop, and together it is Hip-waking. It originally refers to the budding hip-hop (that is, we used to talk about break dancing), and then it gradually developed into a huge concept-the hip-hop culture we are talking about now also includes those loose clothes, heavy pure gold ornaments, and "What's wrong with YoYo?" "Oral habits-in short, it is the lifestyle and their" style "of black people in poor neighborhoods in the United States.
There are many styles of dancing street dance, such as Poping, Locking, Electric, Turbo, House and so on. They don't need higher skills such as breaking, but they need more coordination and sense of dance, as well as flexibility and control of their limbs. Good hip-hop dancers also need to practice hard. Because street dance is not as skillful and competitive as breaking, it has not been paid enough attention by street dance lovers before. Now with the enhancement of dance concept, this situation has changed, and even B-Boy has begun to practice, and many all-round hip-hop players have appeared.
