'''Hip-hop''', or '''[[rap]]''', is a music style that originated in the [[African American]] communities in the early to mid-1970s in the [[United States]], particularly in [[Bronx]], [[New York]]. Hip hop performances generally consist of two main roles, [[DJ]]ing (producing live beats and sounds, or more commonly, [[sample|sampling]] from existing records and breaks) and [[rap|MCing]] or rapping (vocals). Hip hop is one of two genres of music invented in the [[United States]] (the other being [[jazz]]). It is also, to a lesser extent, popular among [[Latino]] communities in [[Florida]], [[Texas]], [[New Mexico]], [[Arizona]], [[California]], [[Nevada]], and big cities of the [[Midwest]] and [[northeast]]. The lyrics in rap are generally delivered in a fast-paced almost conversational manner to the tune of the background music.
