关于黑人HIP-HOP文化的英语演讲稿
Hip Hop Culture EssaySince the early to mid 90’s, hip-hop has undergone changes that purists would consider degenerating to its culture. At the root of these changes is what has been called “commercial hip-hop. Commercial hip-hop has deteriorated what so many emcees in the 80’s tried to build- a culture of music, dance, creativity, and artistry that would give people not only something to bob their head to, but also an avenue to express themselves and deliver a positive message to their surroundings..What does the term “commercial” mean? It can take on various meanings, but in essence that term is used to label artists who have alienated parts of the hip-hop culture in their work. The High and Mighty, a duo from Philadelphia signed to Rawkus Records, summed up what commercial hip-hop is in their 1999 single release “The Meaning”. Mr. Eon says: “…they’re tryin’ to turn hip-hop to just plain rappin’\\\/let the poppers pop\\\/and the breakers break…”But the disenchantment with artists who don’t appreciate hip-hop as consisting of emceeing, breaking, graffiti art, beat boxing and dj-ing is not new. Underground artists, predominately hip-hop purists, have lashed out at biters and perpetrators for many years. For example, in 1989 3rd Bass released their first album, The Cactus Cee\\\/D. Throughout the album, MC Serch and Prime Minister Pete Nice scold the commercialized booty shakers like MC Hammer for corrupting hip-hop, particularly on the track “The Gasface” they specifically call out Hammer for his antics.Inside the album jacket, Serch sums up hip-hop in ‘89: “There was a time when nothing was more important than the New York Rap Scene.” It’s dilluted, but not divided.” To hip-hop afficionados, Serch’s quote sounds like the equivalent to a Vietnam soldier’s letter home. Obviously, the group saw the possibility of the hip-hop culture being tainted.Another good example of a group combatting the increase in commercial hip-hop was The Boot Camp Clik, consisting of Buckshot, Helter Skelter, Cocoa Brovaz, OGC, Illa Noyz and The Representativz. The Clik’s slogan throughout the duration of their 1997 release Album for the People was: “Commercial rap get the gun clap”. A descendent of the early backpacker days, Buckshot has always been opposed to mainstream artists who sacrfice artistic integrity in the lure for more money.The underground hip-hop scene has emerged as a circuit where young, talented and intelligent emcees can thrive. Their message is less abrasive and violent. While not all underground artists are choir boys, they are not barking over mics in a frenzy either.. They play small, sometimes dark and dank venues in front of a couple hundred people or much less than that.Like the Christians in ancient Rome who held mass in catacombs and spread their religion secretly, underground artists are privately leading a revolution in these small clubs now in promotion of returning rap to hip-hop, and there probably has never been such a fierce fire lit under the artists like there is now to bring change. Underground artists are fed up with how hip-hop is treated by a lot of major labels that have changed the structure of songs. In 2000, especially on the radio, you may hear one or two verses, an R&B singer lacing the track and then a hook that is repeated enough times to take up 3 plus minutes. This is a brash example of today’s state of hip-hop, but the point is made- creativity in hip-hop has been pushed aside for tracks that incorporate overused samples, have no real message, and have virtually eliminated the DJ from the music.Remember when you could listen to a song for five minutes and all you heard was Rakim bouncing outrageous similes and euphemisms off his tongue and Eric B. blessing the 1s and 2s. Not only was there depth in those types of tracks, but there was creativity and ingenuity. What about groups like Afrika Baambata whose songs lasted as long as infommercials. Eric B. & Rakim and Baambata are perferct examples of the true hip-hop culture because they were innovators and trendsetters, and Rakim never had enough to say.Unless you are an underground fan, you never hear artists like that on the radio. In reality, people have been brainwashed into thinking that what they hear on the radio is hip-hop. It falls terribly short of hip-hop, and may not be worthy of being called rap. Since 1995, we have seen a trend in the implementation of R&B into hip-hop music. The problem with that is it has dilluted the music. Commercial artists like Jay Z, for example, know that the dough will roll in if Blackstreet does the hook for one of his tracks that he, as stated earlier, only writes a couple versus to. Money now controls hip-hop instead of the artists controlling it, and label execs have become more powerful in determining how an artist’s music will sound. This explains the increase in the number of independent labels because artists have discovered that they lose creative control over their music when they sign on with major labels.Now that I’ve ranted over the gripes we purists have about hip-hop as a whole, the next few chapters will deal with separate issues surrounding the decline, yet hopeful resurrection of the elements of the hip-hop culture.
求一篇介绍或有关说唱 嘻哈 HIPHOP rap 的演讲稿
Gangster通常亦写作Gangsta. 是美国黑人文化中重要的一部分。
可以翻译为“黑帮”，“匪帮”，“匪徒”等。
一般Gangsta都不会指的是小喽啰，最起码要在帮派内有所作为，或者犯下过较大罪行的人才有资格被称之为Gangsta. Gangsta是冷酷、冷血的形象，要讲义气，并且要在黑社会中混到如鱼入水财色双收才叫到位。
作为一名Gangsta，一般都口无遮拦，脏话连篇才能凸显你出身于街头。
作为一名杀人不眨眼的黑道中人，涉及违法乱纪的事情应该多多益善，和警察(Cops)是永远的死敌。
炫富、枪械、女人、警察、泄密者、毒品等都是围绕着Gangsta形象密不可分的关键词。
Hip-Hop音乐中，有一个很大的流派就是Gangsta Rap，而关于说唱圈里的Gangsta形象，我们在此推荐大家阅读下面这篇由邪恶少年EB撰稿的文章：关于Gangsta：认真你就输了竞争、比拼一直是Hip-Hop的一个重要基因，硬币的另一面是对暴力的推崇。
Hip-Hop的饱受争议很大程度上与此有关，尤其是Gangsta Rap(匪帮饶舌)在美国大行其道之后，那些看不惯Rap的议员和社团就更是把柄在手不依不饶，好像不消灭Rap就会引发世界大战似的。
我认为谈暴力色变是很愚蠢的，这个话题可以改天讨论。
我想说的是，那些控诉着rap的议员们、那些整天争论谁谁谁到底“Real”还“Fake”的歌迷们，甚至一些Rapper自己，有时候对待这个问题都太过认真了。
这是一场cosplay假还是真，我认为讨论Gangsta rap或者那些艺人的时候，根本不是问题。
你什么时候见过真的黑手党杀人之前，先拍个杀人预告片，伴着鼓点超有韵律地强调几十遍“我要杀你哦，我这次真的要杀了你哦!”没有吧? Hip-Hop乐迷对匪帮饶舌不会陌生，最常见的主旋律话题是“你这个假模假式的冒牌匪徒，我代表正牌黑帮枪毙你”。
可其实“代表正牌消灭你”的仁兄也正不到哪去，大家半斤八两，都是小坏蛋在cosplay大恶棍。
十几年来，你听到东西海岸各路gangsta rapper换了歌词换曲调，换了节奏换韵脚，绞尽脑汁只为提炼一个中心思想：看呐!这群可怜的假匪徒!看呐!我才是唯一的真匪! 这是个游戏，一个很有趣的角色扮演游戏，一个看谁能把“我真你假”这句话说得更花哨的游戏。
从歌词、配乐到Flow，各个层面的技巧为这游戏带来乐趣，而亦真亦幻、模糊而神秘的色彩则是让整场游戏充满魅力，让旁人趋之若鹜望眼欲穿。
你想要多真匪帮饶舌的歌迷分两种。
一种比较注重音乐，某个艺人的坏蛋形象“看上去很美”，黑帮音乐“听上去很匪”，他就认为OK。
另一种在听音乐的同时，对“真实性”有一种孜孜不倦锲而不舍的追求。
某某因为枪械案判刑了，哦他很真实;谁谁涉嫌命案或毒品交易被查，哦太真实了;某某巨星遭遇枪击身亡——啊太可惜了太怀念了——与此同时，心底是不是还有个声音在悄声地喊：“Gangsta Rap太刺激了!” 前一种乐迷追求的是一种逼真的虚构，好比看一部黑帮电影;后一种乐迷则不满足于此，希望更进一步。
如果某歌手在歌词里说自己是毒枭说自己杀人，真实生活中他没有做到，这个歌手会受到后一种乐迷的鄙视。
但我可以肯定，后一种乐迷几乎注定要失望，多数艺人的“真实度”无法满足他们的要求，极个别黑白两道一起走的艺人要么作品太烂要么没出几张专辑就进去了。
艺人，顾名思义就不可能全是真的。
如果真的一味追求真实性，也许2Pac、Biggie们拿命都换不到这个认可，这个位置可能更适合John Gotti这种既是黑道风云人物、又热爱抛头露面的Dapper Don。
Jay-Z早年贩毒起家，50 Cent的黑街恩怨惹来杀身之祸，许多说唱厂牌、艺人和黑道人物牵扯不清，这些都是真的，他们作品中也绝对有基于真实的成分，但程度必然有限，点到即止，更多的是虚构成分。
就是早年有黑街背景的艺人，成名发财之后，你还指望他整天冒着生命危险，“keep it real”地继续在街头跑他以前的致命买卖? 真人秀也是秀啊哥们，别逼着演员们一个个都把自己演死。
差不多行了。
认真就输了“Don’t you ever ask me how far the sun is, only thing I could tell is how real I keep.” 你别说，我把杨钰莹那句“不要问我太阳有多高\\\/我会告诉你我有多真”翻成英文，还真有点Gangsta Rap歌词范儿! 不开玩笑了，我想说的是，每一个在歌里喊着“keep it real”的匪帮饶舌歌手，他们也许有一点真实的“匪”在里头，但这种音乐在反映一部分现实的同时，必然有虚构成分的。
作为乐迷的我们，过分追求现实，既没必要也不现实。
这是带有虚构的娱乐，通过安全地展现暴力带来刺激。
Gangsta Rap和GTA游戏没有本质区别。
我玩GTA游戏时从来不会过分追究所谓真假问题，听Gangsta Rap的时候也一样，认真你就输了。
Enjoy that shit, and that’s it.
