Hip Hop

The Hip Hop world has such a big influence on the young generation’s everyday life that it is shaping the minds of people. Personally I believe that rap music has influenced my life greatly. Some people use music to waste time and others use it and get inspired by it. All music songs have meanings. Some artists like Nas and Tupac put emotions and very sensitive lyrics in their songs. This makes people want to relate to them and become better people because music also educates people, too. For example Tupac Shakur music has influenced my life. He used his music to promote change in our world. He also used his music to illustrate the realities that people try to ignore everyday like racisms, freedom of speech, and pursuit of happiness. Tupac songs inspire people. It’s so ironic how the much older generation does not like rap and hip hop music. The older generation doesn’t know music is just not a way to pass time for all but it’s also a source of inspiration. Over all people should not forget the importance of music in our American society and how it is educating our young generation every moment.
