    Hip-hop originated in the Bronx, New York in the 1970s and is characterized by four main elements - rapping, DJing, breakdancing, and graffiti. Afrika Bambaataa outlined these four pillars of hip-hop culture. Street dance evolved outside of dance studios in public spaces and encourages social interaction. Examples include breakdancing and clogging. Urban dance arose from street styles but is more choreography-focused.

    HIP-HOP & STREET

    DANCE
    By: Group 4
    HIP-HOP
    • A culture and an art movement that was
    created by African Americans, Latino
    Americans, and Caribbean Americans in the
    Bronx, New York city. The origin of the name is
    often disputed. It is also argued as to whether
    hip hop started in south or west Bronx. While
    the term hip hop is often used to refer
    exclusively to hip hop music (a.k.a. Rap).
    •Hip hop is characterized by
    nine elements, of which only
    four elements are considered
    essential to understand hip
    hop musically. The main
    elements of hip hop consist of
    four main pillars
    • Afrika Bambaataa of the hip hop collective Zulu Nation outlined the pillars of
    hip hop culture, coining the terms: "rapping" (also called an MC), a rhythmic
    vocal rhyming style (orality); DJing(and turntablism), which is making music
    with record players and DJ mixers (aural/sound and music creation); b-
    boying/b-girling/breakdancing(movement/dance); and graffiti.[7][2][8][9][-
    10] Other elements of hip hop subculture and arts movements beyond the
    main four are: hip hop culture and historical knowledge of the movement
    (intellectual/philosophical); beatboxing, a percussive vocal style; street
    entrepreneurship; hip hop language; and hip hop fashion and style, among
    others.[11][12][13] The fifth element, although debated, is commonly
    considered either street knowledge, hip hop fashion, or beatboxing.[2][7]
    • Two street dancers performing in the URBANOS dance contest in Brazil.
    • A street dance is a dance style that evolved outside dance studios in any
    available open space such as streets, dance parties, block parties, parks,
    school yards, raves, and nightclubs. A street dance is a vernacular dance in
    an urban context.[1] Vernacular dances are often improvisational and social
    in nature, encouraging interaction and contact with spectators and other
    dancers. These dances are a part of the vernacular culture of the
    geographical area that they come from. Examples of street dance include
    b-boying (or breakdancing), which originated in New York City.[2]
    • Clogging is a very early form of street dance, since it evolved in the streets
    and factories of Northern England in the mid-19th century.[3]

    • Various street dances have lent themselves to the style of urban dance,
    which arose from the collegiate dance scene. Urban dance is
    choreography-oriented but is inspired by different street dance styles and
    fundamental moves, such as house, locking, and popping. Urban dance
    should not be mistaken with hip hop, which is the culture and art movement
    that began in the Bronx in New York City during the late 1970s.
