The Hip Hop Portal

Hip hop refers to both a culture and the music that stems forth from that culture. The musical style began in 1970s New York City with the innovations of such pioneers as Kool DJ Herc, Grandmaster Flash, Grandwizard Theodore, Grandmaster Caz, Afrika Bambaataa, and DJ Hollywood. Notable elements of the culture are rapping, DJing/production, graffiti, breakdancing, and beatboxing.

Selected article

Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) is the debut album of the East Coast hip hop collective the Wu-Tang Clan. It was released on November 9, 1993 by Loud Records and RCA. Many critics consider Enter The Wu-Tang one of the most significant albums of the 1990s and one of the greatest hip hop albums recorded.[1][2] The distinctive sound of Enter the Wu-Tang created a blueprint for hardcore rap in the mid-1990s and helped return New York City hip hop to national prominence.[3] The Wu-Tang Clan's debut was a landmark album in an era known as the East Coast Renaissance.[4] In 2003, Rolling Stone ranked it #386 among the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".[5] The RZA produced the album with heavy, eerie beats, largely based on martial-arts movie clips and soul music samples. The album itself is named for the 1978 martial arts film The 36th Chamber of Shaolin.
