Today, Hip-Hop music is a big business. Hip-Hop artists make millions of dollars. They are superstars and have many fans all over the world. But Hip-Hop wasnt always so popular. It is only about thirty years old. When Hip-Hop music first developed in the late 1970s, not many people knew about it. It was created in the poorest districts of New York City by African American and Latino teenagers as part of a Hip-Hop scene that also produced break dancing(霹雳舞) and graffiti art(涂鸦艺术). Many of these young people were unemployed, but some found work as DJs in discos where theyd ask a friend to act as their MC. The MC would introduce the DJ and encourage everyone to dance and have a good time. Some MCs tried to be more entertaining by talking in time to the beat of the music and using rhymes, and by doing this they invented rapping. Hip-Hop started in New York. Young people in New York wanted to make music, but they had a problem. Many of them did not have enough money to buy expensive instruments. They also did not have any place to practice. Hip-Hop was the perfect answer to this problem, as Hip-Hop artists did not need any special instruments and they could practice anywhere.Do you like dancing? Do you think dancing is difficult? Breakdancing is a very difficult kind of dancing. People dance to Hip-Hop music. Breakdancers have to be very strong and fast. Breakdancing started in the 1980s at the same time as Hip-Hop. At first, breakdancing was like fighting. Breakdancers had “battles”. Each breakdancer did his best to dance in the contest. Then the people who were watching decided which breakdancer was the best. The winner didnt get any money, but they didnt care. Dancers just wanted to be the best breakdancer on their street.Today, people break dance all over the world. There are professional breakdancing contests. Winners can get a lot of money, and sometimes they are on TV. Just like Hip-Hop, breakdancing is now a big business.31 .
