I was on reddit and someone claimed it was "factual music history".

Not much more than that was said but I want to hear you guys talk about it

lol

why would it be

Only if soul funk and jazz are all also electronic music

“I was on Reddit”

Found the problem

It was the yeat subreddit too

No. It's a culture first.

Lemme guess.

They were white?

musical genres are conventional categories defined by the cultural traditions that surround the music itself

hip hop isn’t a sub genre of anything, hip hop is a cultural tradition founded by black americans and puerto ricans in new york

electronic innovations in music technology is an integral part to the development and proliferation of the genre. it will always play an important part, because hip hop is less bound to specific instrumentation and atp even rhythms.

r/yeat is the yeat hate subreddit btw, the main one is r/yeat_

no lol

if anything electronic is a subgenre of hip-hop

who made drums slap first?

we can give hip hop its flowers without getting carried away here

shoutout Ikutaro Kakehashi, creator of the 808

I would argue that it is. Especially early hip hop.

true

not that far off tbh

kill op

Stop saying stupid s*** like this

it's a genre of electronic music not a subgenre

Nah. The creation of hip hop came from the break of Funk and Disco records.

There are many out there that predate even this.

What we doing. Why are ppl trying to rewrite history?

the elements to make hiphop in its original form could be classified as electronic music like looping breaks but hiphop ain’t a subgenre of s***
