The Wu-Tang Clan is a pioneering hip hop group, originally from Staten Island, New York, USA (Staten Island is referred to as "Shaolin" in their lyrics).
The crew is composed of nine MCs (now reduced to eight with the death of Ol' Dirty Bastard in 2004). All of the nine members have released solo albums, and the group has spawned many affiliate groups. This was the plan from the group's inception: Wu-Tang was designed to become an empire, to take over the hip hop community through saturation of like minded artists.
Though the group's style has evolved considerably over the years, and the solo projects of individual members differ in tone and content, the group is generally well-known for thumping, surreal beats and aggressive lyrics loaded with metaphor, references to life in New York City, and allusions to Chinese folklore and martial arts films.
Foundation
Cover of Wu-Tang Clan's 1993 debut, Enter the Wu-Tang
The founders of the Wu-Tang Clan were cousins GZA, Ol' Dirty Bastard, and the RZA who had previously comprised the by-then-defunct trio Force Of The Imperial Master, who became better known as All In Together Now after they had a popular single of that name. The group had attracted the attention of some in the industry, including Biz Markie [1], but had never managed to secure a record deal. Since the crew dissolved, GZA (then known as the Genius) and the RZA (then known as Prince Rakeem) had also embarked on separate unsuccessful solo careers with Cold Chillin Records and Tommy Boy Records respectively. The three cousins' frustration with the workings of the hip hop music industry would provide the main inspiration to the Wu-Tang's revolutionary business plan.
The Wu-Tang Clan was gradually assembled in late 1992 from friends and accomplices from around Staten Island, with the RZA as the de facto leader & the group's producer. The two cousins (GZA and RZA) created their new Wu-Tang nom-de-plumes by mimicking the sound that the words "genius" and "rakeem" would make when scratched on a turntable. The name of the group itself originates from the Wudang (or Wu-Tang) Mountains in the Hubei province of China, which are a traditional center of Chinese martial arts; RZA and Ol' Dirty Bastard adopted the name for the group after seeing the kung-fu film Shaolin and Wu-Tang, which features a school of warriors trained in the Wu-Tang style (many dialogue excerpts from the film were used on their debut album). The group have also developed various backronyms for the name (as hip hop pioneers like KRS One and Big Daddy Kane did with their names), including "We Usually Take All Niggas' Garments," "Witty Unpredictable Talent And Natural Game" and "Wisdom, Universe, Truth, Allah, Nation, and God". This is reflected by the teaching of the 5% nation of Gods and Earths. The group's now-famous logo was designed by long-time associate and graffiti artist Mathematics, who would go on to become the group's DJ and one of its most sought after in-house producers.
The Clan first became known to hip hop fans, and to major record labels, in 1993 (see 1993 in music) following the release of the independent single Protect Ya Neck, which immediately gave the group a sizeable underground following. Though there was some difficulty in finding a record label that would sign the Wu-Tang Clan while still allowing each member to record solo albums with other labels, Loud/RCA finally agreed and the debut album Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers in late 1993 was popular and critically-acclaimed, though it took some time to gain momentum. Though hip hop had long had a gritty texture, the surreal aggression and minimalist production of 36 Chambers nevertheless had a huge impact on the genre, and was to prove massively influential over the next decade. By the beginning of the 21st century, the album had become a regular fixture on "Best Albums Of The 90s" lists as well as a frequent choice for "Best Albums Of All Time" lists. [2]
The success of Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers established the group as a creative and influential force in early 1990s hip hop, allowing GZA, RZA, Raekwon, Method Man, and Ol' Dirty Bastard to negotiate solo contracts.

Solo Careers
The Wu-Tang Clan. Left to right: Raekwon, Masta Killa, Method Man, Ghostface Killah (back) and Ol' Dirty Bastard (front), Inspectah Deck (standing) and GZA (kneeling), U-God, and The RZA
RZA was the first to follow up on the success of 36 Chambers with a side project, founding the Gravediggaz with Prince Paul (a producer most famous for De La Soul), Frukwan (of Stetsasonic) and Poetic (of the Brothers Grimm). The Gravediggaz released 6 Feet Deep in August 1994, which became the most famous work to emerge from hip hop's small sub-genre of horrorcore.
It had always been planned for Method Man to be the first breakout star from the group's lineup, with the b-side of the first single being his now-classic eponymous solo track. In November 1994 his solo album Tical was released. It was entirely produced by the RZA, who for the most part continued with the grimy, raw textures he explored on 36 Chambers. RZA's hands-on approach to Tical extended beyond his merely creating the beats to devising song concepts and structure. This approach would continue throughout the first round of solo projects from the Clan members. Ol' Dirty Bastard found success in early 1995 with Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version, which saw the 36 Chambers sound become even rawer and rough-edged.
Late 1995 saw the release of the group's two most significant and well-received solo projects. Raekwon the Chef's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx was a diverse, theatrical criminological epic that saw RZA move away from the raw, stripped-down beats of the early albums and towards a richer, cinematic sound more reliant on strings and classic soul samples. It also featured Queensbridge MC Nas on the song "Verbal Intercourse", the first non-Wu-Tang artist to appear on a Wu-Tang album. GZA's Liquid Swords had a similar focus on inner-city criminology to Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, yet it was far darker, both in GZA's grim lyrics and in the ominous, foreboding production that saw RZA more reliant on keyboards than ever before. The two 1995 solo albums remain widely regarded as two of the finest hip hop albums of the nineties.
Ghostface Killah released his own debut, Ironman, in 1996. It struck a balance between the sinister keyboard-laden textures of Liquid Swords and the sentimental soul samples of Cuban Linx, while Ghostface himself explored new territory as a lyricist. It was critically acclaimed and is still widely considered one of the best Wu-Tang solo albums. Although the 1994-1996 albums were released as solo albums, RZA's presence behind the boards and the large number of guest appearances from other Clan members (Raekwon and Ghostface's albums only had two or three actual solo tracks each and both included tracks that only included other Clan members and not themselves) means they are usually considered as important to the group's evolution as the group albums proper.
With solo careers established, the Wu-Tang Clan came back together to release the enormous double album Wu-Tang Forever in June 1997. It was eagerly anticipated and entered the charts at number one after selling 600,000 in its first week—no mean feat for an album that made very little attempt to have wide commercial appeal, and which had a five minutes plus nine-MC "posse cut" with no chorus as its lead single ("Triumph"). The sound of the album mostly built upon the sounds of the previous three solo albums, with RZA increasing his use of keyboards and string samples, as well as for the first time assigning much of the album's production to his protégés True Master and 4th Disciple (known as the Wu-Elements). The group's lyrics were considerably different from those on 36 Chambers, with many verses on the album being dense stream-of-consciousness narratives heavily influenced by the teachings of the Five Percent Nation. However, the live tour supporting the album was cancelled halfway through amid rumors of internal disputes.
Wu-Tang Forever also marked the end of RZA's "five year plan"; at the group's inception, he promised the group members that if he had total control of the Wu-Tang empire, it would conquer the hip hop world within five years. After Forever's success, RZA ceased to oversee all aspects of Wu-Tang product as he had previously, delegating much of his existing role to associates such as Oli "Power" Grant and his brother Mitchell "Divine" Diggs. This move was designed to enable the Wu-Tang empire to expand further into the fabric of the hip hop industry, and in accordance with this an extremely large amount of Wu-Tang product (both musical and otherwise) was to be released over the next two years.
[edit]
Expansion
Cover to the 1998 compilation Wu-Tang Killa Bees: The Swarm
Immediately after Forever, the focus of Wu-Tang was on promoting emerging affiliate artists rather than its own members. The group's close associate Cappadonna, who first appeared on Raekwon's debut and was a large presence on both Ironman and Wu-Tang Forever, followed the group project with March 1998's The Pillage. Soon after, Killah Priest (like Cappadonna, a close associate of the Clan, though not an official member) released Heavy Mental to great critical acclaim. Affiliate groups Sunz Of Man (of which Killah Priest was a member) and Killarmy (which included RZA's younger brother) also released albums while a compilation album, Wu-Tang Killa Bees: The Swarm, was released showcasing these and more Wu-affiliated artists as well as including new solo tracks from the group members themselves.
The second round of solo albums from the Clansmen saw sophomore efforts from the four members who had already released albums as well as debuts from all the remaining members except Masta Killa (who would eventually debut as a solo artist in 2004). In the space of two years, RZA's Bobby Digital In Stereo, Method Man's Tical 2000: Judgement Day and Blackout! (with Redman), GZA's Beneath the Surface, Ol' Dirty Bastard's Nigga Please, U-God's Golden Arms Redemption, Raekwon's Immobilarity, Ghostface Killah's Supreme Clientele and Inspectah Deck's Uncontrolled Substance were all released (seven of them being released in the space of seven months between June 1999 and January 2000). RZA also composed the score for the film Ghost Dog - The Way of the Samurai, directed by Jim Jarmusch, while he and other Wu-Tang members contributed music to a companion "music inspired by the film" album.
As well as the releases from the nine Clansmen and the most high-ranking affiliates, there was a long line of mostly poorly-received releases from lower-ranking affiliates such as Popa Wu, Shyheim, GP Wu, and Wu-Syndicate, second albums from Gravediggaz and Killarmy, as well as a greatest hits album, a b-sides compilation, and Wu-Tang branded clothing and video games. The Wu Wear clothing line in particular was massively influential on hip hop culture; initially started as merely a way to make money from the demand for bootleg Wu-Tang shirts, it evolved into an extensive collection of designer garments. Soon, other hip hop artists were making similar ventures and by the mid 2000s a clothing line was almost a prerequisite for hip hop superstardom, with clothing lines launched by Ludacris, Jay-Z, Puff Daddy, Busta Rhymes, Nelly and more.
However, the avalanche of Wu-Tang product between 1997 and 2000 is considered by many critics, such as All Music Guide's Stephen Thomas Erlewine [3], to have resulted in an oversaturation that was largely responsible for the Wu-Tang's drop in popularity during the same time period. Reviews such as Melody Maker's writeup on Ghostface Killah's Supreme Clientele in January 2000 which began "Another month, another Wu-Tang side project" indicated the critical attitude to the Clan's overexposure. Whatever the case, the reception for the second round of Clan member solo albums was decidedly mixed if largely positive, and they did not live up to their pre-Forever forebears either critically or commercially. Occasional albums would still receive critical acclaim (Ghostface Killah's Supreme Clientele for one) while Method Man and ODB remained popular in their own right as solo artists, and the Wu-Tang remained generally well-known, but they had seemingly lost the ability to excite the music world in the way they had only three years previously. Many fans and critics also bemoaned the lack of RZA input on the post-Forever solo albums, which were mostly produced by the Wu-Element producers, other lower-ranking affiliates or by outside producers such as the Trackmasters or the Neptunes.
The Wu-Tang's fortunes were also not aided by Ol' Dirty Bastard beginning a long career of erratic behavior, landing him in both the headlines and jail on a regular basis. At the 1998 Grammy Awards, he protested the Clan's loss (in Best Rap Album) by interrupting Shawn Colvin's acceptance speech, albeit in a good-natured manner. ODB was also arrested several times for a variety of offenses, including assault, making terrorist threats, shoplifting, wearing body armor after being convicted of a felony, and possession of cocaine. He was also in trouble for missing multiple court dates. ODB's troubles would continue to blight him well into the 21st century.

Recent History
Wu-Tang Clan on the cover of their 2001 album Iron Flag
In 2000, the group reconvened to make a new album, minus Ol' Dirty Bastard who was incarcerated in California for violating the terms of his probation. Almost finished with his rehab, Ol' Dirty Bastard escaped suddenly and spent one month on the run as a fugitive before showing up onstage at the record release party for The W, the group's new album. Ol' Dirty Bastard managed to escape the club, but was captured by Philadelphia police and sent to New York to face charges of cocaine possession. In April 2001, he was sentenced to two to four years in prison. The W itself was mostly well-received by critics, particularly for RZA's production [4], and also gave the group a hit single with the uptempo Gravel Pit (which was supported by an extravagant faux-prehistoric Flintstones-inspired video). 2001 saw the release of Digital Bullet (the second RZA album released as Bobby Digital), Bulletproof Wallets (Ghostface Killah) and The Yin and the Yang (Cappadonna). The group's latest album (as a group) was 2001's Iron Flag, made without the participation of the still-incarcerated Ol' Dirty Bastard, and which received mixed but mostly positive reviews.
After GZA released Legend of the Liquid Sword in late 2002, the following two years saw a spate of new solo releases, including new works by Cappadonna (The Struggle), Method Man (Tical 0: The Prequel), Raekwon (The Lex Diamond Story), Ghostface Killah (who, in his new contract with Def Jam Records, changed his pseudonym to simply Ghostface, and released The Pretty Toney Album), Inspectah Deck (The Movement), Masta Killa (No Said Date) and Wu-Element producer Mathematics (Love, Hell & Right). Ghostface's The Pretty Toney Album was critically acclaimed in the mainstream press [5], and Masta Killa's independently released No Said Date was well-received by the group's hardcore fanbase and critics for its unpretentious, back-to-basics approach and in-house production. [6] However, the albums by Raekwon, Deck, and Method Man received mixed reviews which were generally lukewarm. [7]
In early 2004 U-God, for a long time one of the least renowned members of the Clan, apparently left the group in disgust. A DVD titled Rise Of A Fallen Soldier was released detailing his problems, which were mostly with his treatment by the RZA, who he claimed had hindered his success as a solo artist. He also formed a new group of young proteges called the Hillside Scramblers, with whom he released the album Ugodz-illa presents the Hillside Scramblers in March 2004. The dispute culminated in a heated phone conversation between RZA and U-God on live radio, which ultimately saw the two reconcile. U-God later effectively rejoined the group.
2004 also saw the unexpected return of the Clan to the live stage, and minus Ol' Dirty Bastard and Method Man (who was filming the Fox sitcom Method & Red) they embarked on a short European tour before coming together as a complete group for the first time in several years to headline the Rock The Bells festival in California. The concert was released on DVD shortly afterwards, along with another greatest hits compilation. This renewed interest in the group fuelled rumors that another group album is on the way soon, and RZA confirmed towards the end of the year that the group did plan to release another album in the near future.
The group was hit by the Ol' Dirty Bastard's death due to a drug overdose on November 13, 2004; however, the impact of his death on the Clan's output is expected to be limited, given that his involvement with the group had been very sporadic for many years. ODB had been recently released from prison and subsequently signed to Jay-Z and Damon Dash's Roc-a-Fella Records label, and was preparing a new album while he recorded other new songs with the Neptunes and the Clan themselves. A posthumous official mixtape titled Osirus and featuring many new songs was released in March 2005 and ODB's unfinished Roc-A-Fella album is expected to be released in some form in 2005. Also in 2005, U-God released his sophomore album titled Mr. Xcitement, and GZA released an album-length collaboration with DJ Muggs of Cypress Hill titled GrandMasters. 2006 should see the release of Raekwon's long-delayed sequel to his 1995 debut Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (interestingly, the result of several LA studio sessions originally aimed towards creating a new Clan album), a new album from Method Man produced by the RZA, another album on Def Jam from Ghostface titled Fish Scale, and Masta Killa's second album Da East Is In The House. A collaboration album between Inspectah Deck and Pete Rock is also rumored to be in the works but not confirmed.

TV & Film Appearances
RZA, Cappadonna and affiliate group Killarmy made an appearance in the "Adolf Hankler" episode of the HBO sitcom The Larry Sanders Show. In the episode, the group are booked to perform on the show-within-the-show by guest host Jon Stewart, who then comes into disagreement with the show's network over whether or not the Clan are "too urban" for the show's audience. In one of their two scenes, the group is seen rehearsing the song "And Justice For All" and in the other scene, they are awkwardly conversing with the show's sidekick character Hank Kingsley (played by Jeffrey Tambor).
Some members of the group have also appeared in several Comedy Central shows, most notably two appearances on Chappelle's Show. The first was in episode 107, in a sketch titled "Wu-Tang Financial", in which RZA and GZA run an investment firm. The second appearance was in episode 201, in the sketch "Racial Draft 2004", in which the group is drafted to become ethnically Asian. Various members have also appeared in episodes of Upright Citizens Brigade and Crank Yankers.
Members of Wu-Tang also have many notable film appearances. In 1998 RZA made a brief appearance in Ghost Dog - The Way of the Samurai, a film he also scored. In 2003, RZA and GZA appeared in the Movie Coffee and Cigarettes in the Sequence "Delirium" with Bill Murray. Method Man has the most successful acting career of any member in Wu-Tang with many credits to his name, including a stint on HBO's Oz, appearances on The Wire and The Twilight Zone, and starring roles in the feature film How High and the now-cancelled Fox series Method & Red. RZA also had a role in the 2005 film Derailed and won praise from Roger Ebert for his performance, though the film itself received mixed reviews.

Mali od Ede
Frenkie
Hamidović Adnan rođen je u Bijeljini 31.05.1982 gdje je živio do 1992 godine. Nakon izbijanja rata seli se sa svojom familijom u Njemacku (Nuernberg) gdje je živio do 1998 godine.
Prve korake u hiphop kulturi je upravo tamo napravio u Njemačkoj, prvi put čuo hiphop i počeo se baviti grafitima. Tamo je počeo pisati i prve tekstove koji su tad još bili na njamčkom jeziku. Za sebe kaže da je njemački hip-hop dosta uticao na njegav still repanja danas: "Tamo svi samo betlaju, tako da sam i ja najrađe piso battle textove!". Frenkie i dalje aktivno prati njemačku scenu i ona mu je i dan danas inspiracija.
Nakon povratka u BiH, u Tuzli se nastavlja baviti grafitima. Medju prvim je crtačima u BiH koji je nakon rata uzeo sprej u ruke i u potpunosti naredni period svog života posvetio crtanju. Tek 1999 sa početkom emisije FmJam na radiju Kameleon upoznaje Emira i Erola koji su tada skupa vodili tu emisiju i tu nastaju prvi demo snimci, u podrumu radio Kameleona (ko kaže da BH scena nema underground op.a).
Još prije osnivanja Disciplinske Komisije, Frenkie je imao grupu koja se zvala Prljavi Anđeli, tada još u postavi sa Komom i Adijem. No nakon osnivanje Disciplinske Komisije ta grupa se raspada, odnosno postaje dio Disciplinske Komisjie.
DK se skupila 1999 godine na jednom jamu u Tuzli. Cinili su je: Edo , Koma, Mire , Hmza i Frenkie sto se tice mc-ija. Dj je bio Emir, a Erol je bio odgovoran za sajt. Posle toga je usljedilo par demo snimaka koji su takodje rađeni u radiju kameleonu, i nakon kraceg vremena Edo obljavljuje svoje dvije pjesme koje će mu donjeti ugovor kod Menarta: "Mahir i Alma" i "Minimalni rizik".
Nakon snimanja svog prvog albuma Edo dobija dosta ponuda za koncerte i kreće na velike turneje širom cijele ex Jugoslavije. Frenkie se pridružuje Edi na svakom koncertu kao back-up MC. Frenkija je publika upamtila po njegovoj energičnosti i brzini koja jos na našim prostorima nije viđena. On nastavlja rad sa komisijom i paralelno tome pocinje i snimati prve solo stvari.
Onda slijede gostovanja na albumima prijatelja kao što su Marchelo i Edo Maajka. Na pjesmama Ne-mo-žeš i Ožeži pokazuje da je itekako ozbiljan konkurent kolegama na sceni i da ima jos dosta neistrošene energije. Od izlazka Edinog prvog albuma Slušaj Mter pa do danas ovaj duo je prešao uzduž i poprijeko cijeli teritorij ex-Yu, kao i pola Evrope. Sveukupno više od 250 nastupa u kratkom perioodu.
I tako snimajući i nastupajući, Frenkie kreće 2004 na snimanje svog prvog solo albuma.
ODLIČAN CD!
Nakon mnogobrojnih demo snimaka koje ste mogli poslušati na stranici: FMJAM.com i nakon par gostovanja na albumima prijatelja kao što su Edo Maajka, Marchelo i drugi, konačno je vrijeme za Frenkiejev solo album.
"Odličan CD" je sniman u Zagrebu u jednom od najjačih studija na Balkanu "Morris". Mix potpisuje Miro Vidović kojem se na par pjesama pridružio i Koolade.
Album sadrži 18 pjesama među kojima su tri koje je publika već imala priliku čuti na fmjam-u. Radi se o pjesmama 95%, koja se pojavljuje u remix verziji, MC i Hajmo rušit koja je takođe ponovo snimljena u Frenkijevoj solo izvedbi. Hajmo rušit je publici u BiH i Hrvatskoj poznata od ranije, a na radiju 101 u Zagrebu je bila i na prvom mjestu njihove Cener top liste.
Produkciju na albumu potpisuju već poznati hrvatski i bosansko-hercegovački producenti: Baby Dooks, Andrei kojeg smo mogli čuti na Edinom albumu No Sikiriki, Makro Polo, mladi obećavajući producent iz Zagreba koji je sarađivao sa dosta hrvatskih repera, Maca i Mayer iz Mostara, Somer iz grupe MG/Zenica i kao šlag na kraju najviše beatova potpisuje Risbo, mladi Bosanac koji živi i radi u Njemačkoj za poznate njemačke izvođače.
Evo i kratko predstavljanje gostovanja na albumu:
- "Raise" koja je ujedno i single ovog albuma, a na kojoj gostuje Mire vokal iz tuzlanske grupe Defence,
- "Creme de la creme 2" na kojoj je već poznata postava od prvog dijela, Edo Maajka i Marchelo,
- "Veza" na kojoj gostuje Flipstar , u Njemačkoj već poznat sa svojom grupom Creutzfeld & Jakob,
- "Verbalna gerila" na kjoj gostuju Ebyss takođe Bosanac koji živi u Švajcarskoj i repa na francuskom jeziku i Kwonel,
- "Sunnett" na kojoj gostuje Disciplinska Komisija i
- "Overdose" na kojoj možemo ponovo čuti Edu.
Sve u svemu na albumu možemo čuti dosta energičnog repanja na koje ste već navikli, ako ste i jednom bili na koncertu Ede Maajke ili poslušali neke od već navedenih Frenkijevih demo snimaka. Na albumu možete naći sve od battle tama, sa kojima se Frenkie i u prošlosti već isticao, pa do socijalnih tekstova i storytelling-a.
Još treba spomenuti da je za omot albuma odgovoran Aorta koji je i za Edu radio omot albuma No Sikiriki.
Na kraju vjerujemo da ste slušali dobre i vrlo dobre albume, al niste još čuli Odličan CD!!!

Gangsta rap
Rap-tekstovi 80-ih postaju sve zesci, sve grubljeg i prostijeg
rjecnika i sve mracnijih tema nasilja iz crnacke svakodnevnice.
Sve to zajedno 90-ih je godine nazvano gangsta-rap
ciji su glavni predstavnici bili iz los Angelesa(NWA,Snoop Dogg, Ice-T,2pac).
Taj hip-hop s americkog zapada nisu bas prigrlili rapperi
s istoka(puff Daddy i The Notorius B.I.G.).
Pocelo je prepucavanje u intervijuima, a zavrsilo fizickim obracunavanjem
i ubojstvima(u gangsterskom stilu,iz automobila u voznji
ili na krizanju, ubijeni su Tupac "2pac" Shakur1996. i jegov ljuti
neprijatelj Christopher " Notoriusb.I.G. " Wallace, 1997.)

Povjest Rap-@
MC-ing: MC = Master of Ceremony ili Microphone Controller (hr. gospodar ceremonije ili onaj koji "kontrolira" mikrofon). To je osoba koja sama sebi smišlja rime i ideje za svoje pjesme i freestyle-ove (freestyle = bacanje rima na mjestu, ravno iz glave). Moram naglasiti da je u svim područjima Hip-Hopa najvažnija ideja i originalnost, rapperi ne vole one koji kradu ili kopiraju tuđe ideje. Pravi MC mora biti u stanju svojim verbalnim vještinama podizati atmosferu na koncertima i partyjima uživo.
Nitko ne zna kad je tocno nastala Hip-Hop kultura, ali se zna da je to bilo sredinom 70-ih godina prošlog stoljeca. U crnackim cetvrtima Bronxa, NYC, na ulicama (prvi graffiti), u diskotekama (prvi DJ-ing i breakbeat za b-boying) i u parkovima (MC-ing), mladi su spontano zapoceli novi pokret koji je kasnije prerastao u globalnu kulturu. U ovom prvom dijelu price o povijesti rapa, pokušat cu vam približiti nastanak ovog glazbenog pravca, a u drugom dijelu citajte o njegovom daljnjem razvitku.
U dijelovima New Yorka sa vecinskom Crnom populacijom u diskotekama je krajem 70-ih bio popularan funk. DJ-i su shvatili da neki dijelovi pjesama dižu publiku i onda su se dosjetili da bi mogli uzeti dva primjerka iste ploce i najbolji komad iste pjesme puštati opet i opet s 2 gramofona. Na to je došao MC, koji je svako malo bacio neku party rimu preko glazbe, da bi još više podigao atmosferu. Onda su se pocele koristiti i ritam mašine i nastao je novi glazbeni pravac.
Prvi DJ-i koji su stvarali svoju glazbu samplirajuci dijelove iz starijih funky i disco pjesama bili su Afrika Bambaataa i Kool DJ Herc, i njih se danas smatra ne samo zacetnicima rapa, nego elektronske glazbe opcenito. Prva snimljena rap pjesma koja je cak postala hit u ljeto 1979. g. bila je legendarna "Rappers Delight" grupe The Sugarhill Gang. Nakon toga poceo je snimati i Grandmaster Flash s grupom The Furious 5 i pocela se lagano stvarati scena. Treba naglasiti da je tada još rap glazba bila prostorno ogranicena: snimali su je i slušali samo Crnci u New Yorku, a glazbeni kriticari ju nisu priznavali kao glazbeni pravac koji ce uspjeti. Rap se snimao prvenstveno za brejkanje, bila je to tada vrlo brza elektronska glazba u kojoj je glavnu ulogu imao ritam. Danas se taj stil naziva old school. Veliki pomak napravio je Grandmaster Flash, koji je 1983. g. snimio stvar "The Message", koja je bila kritika društva i davala jasnu poruku. Tada su rapperi shvatili da je ova glazba savršena za prijenos poruka i da rime mogu imati važnu ulogu.
U to vrijeme pojavila se još jedna vrlo važna grupa za povijest hip-hopa: Run DMC, koji su zapravo postavili trend i približili rap široj publici, pogotovo nakon njihove suradnje s tada poznatom heavy metal grupom Aerosmith u pjesmi "Walk This Way". Pojavila se i prva diskografska kuca zainteresirana prvenstveno za izdavanje rap albuma: Def Jam. Za njih su snimali Run DMC i LL Cool J, a korak dalje znacio je prvi album jedne bijelacke rap grupe Beastie Boys, koji su kombinirali ritam mašine i sampliranje sa živom svirkom i sirovim rapom. "Licensed to Ill" iz 1987. bio je na prvom mjestu americke top-liste, prvenstveno zbog hitova "Fight For Your Right (to Party)" i "No Sleep till Brooklyn". Uglavnom, Beastie Boys su srušili mnoge rasne predrasude o Hip-Hopu kao iskljucivo crnackome stilu.
Sredinom 80-ih godina lagano se pocela stvarati scena i na zapadnoj obali SAD-a, u LA-u. Tamo je medu prvim poznatijim rapperima bio Too $hort, koji je do danas snimio vec preko 15 albuma (sam Bog zna tocan broj), ali glavnu rijec u LA-u krajem 80-ih vodio je naravno Ice-T, koji se tada jedini mogao mjeriti sa suparnicima s istocne obale. Njegovi albumi "Power" i "Iceberg" znacili su uvod u gangsta rap maniju, o kojoj cete više saznati u drugom dijelu.
Sad se vracamo u New York, jer kraj 80-ih je zlatno doba rap glazbe. Nastaju mnoge legendarne i kvalitetne grupe: BDP, Eric B. & Rakim, Gang Starr, a neki od njih su i danas vodece face u svijetu Hip-Hopa. Medutim, ono najrevolucionarnije u povijesti ovog glazbenog pravca dogodilo se 1988. godine: drugi album grupe Public Enemy, pod nazivom "It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back". Radi se o radikalnom nacinu borbe za rasnu jednakost na svim poljima, i to na vrlo efektivan nacin: podloge žestoke i pune energije, tekstovi direktni, inteligentni i s jasnom porukom. Kritika ih je odmah docekala na nož: po casopisima su ih ocjenjivali kao Crne rasiste koje treba zakonom zabraniti za dobrobit društva, a spominjali su ih cesto i u politickim debatama. No to je u biti ispala dobra reklama za PE, jer grupa je ubrzo postala svjetski poznata. Iako gotovo nijedna radio niti TV stanica nije baš rado vrtila njihove stvari u eteru, album se jako dobro prodao i paradoksno je to što su upravo Public Enemy, radikalni borci za prava Crnaca u Americi, postali prva rap grupa široko prihvacena i u Europi.
Kad su snimili treci album "Fear of a Black Planet" 1990. (na njemu se nalaze hitovi "911 Is a Joke", "Brothers Gonna Work It Out" i "Anti-Nigger Machine"), album je otišao platinasto (citaj: prodao se u milijun primjeraka) samo 2 tjedna nakon izlaska. To je znacilo da rap postaje glazbeni pravac na koji ce se u buducnosti morati racunati. Prava pljuska americkoj javnosti bila je grupa N.W.A. (Niggaz Wit' Attitudez), koju su originalno sacinjavali Ice Cube, Eazy-E, Dr.Dre, MC Ren i DJ Yella. Njihov prvi album "Straight Outta Compton" izašao je 1989. g. i sranja su krenula. Za tadašnje vrijeme, bio je presedan da u CD shopovima širom SAD-a bude CD na kojem je svaka druga rijec "muthafucka", "bitch" ili nesto slicno, varijacije na temu. U pjesmama naši junaci bez dlake na jeziku govore o dilerima, prostitutkama, pištoljima i kurvama, ali ne u smislu kao da je to nešto negativno. Mnogi su bogati bijeli Ameri kupovali taj album jer su mislili da ce se na taj nacin solidirati s najnižim slojem, neki su na taj nacin željeli vidjeti što se dogada u siromašnim cetvrtima, tamo gdje se oni boje naci i sl. Zbog pjesme "Fuck tha Police" clanovi grupe su imali problema cak i s F.B.I-jem. Evo kako Ice Cube zapocinje pjesmu: "Fuck tha police comin' straight outa underground / A young nigga got it bad 'cause I'm Brown / And not the other color, some police think / They have the authority to kill the minority / Fuck that shit 'cause I ain't the one / Fool and punk muthafucka with a badge and a gun...". Kad su novinari pitali Cubea zašto sebe naziva "nigga" (do tada, to je bio posprdan naziv za Crnca), on je odgovorio da ce se nakon njihovih pjesama znacenje te rijeci promijeniti. Oni žele pokazati da "nigga" nije neki jadan, smotani "crnjo" po kojem ce svi gaziti i koji ništa nece moci reci, nego da je to onaj koji više nece trpiti poniženja i koji ce od sada svima je*at sve po spisku. To su N.W.A. i uspjeli postici.
Novine u Americi bile su pune clanaka o lajavim gangsterima iz Comptona (ozloglašena siromašna cetvrt u south central L.A-u), da je popularnost "Crncuga sa stavovima" porasla iznad svih ocekivanja. Nakon toga, po L.A-u su pocele nicati slicne grupe kao gljive poslije kiše i svi su se busali u prsa kako su baš oni iz Comptona. Ali njihovi idoli N.W.A. su se brzo raspali - jer se nisu uspjeli dogovoriti oko podjele para. Clanovi grupe krenuli su u svoje (nekima uspješne, nekima baš i ne) solo karijere.
Gangsta rap nije pustio svoje korijene samo u L.A-u, nego i u Houstonu, TX. Tamo je krajem 80-ih nastala grupa Geto Boys, koju se u mnogocemu može usporedivati s N.W.A. Geto Boyse pamtimo po odlicnim hitovima "Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta" i "Mind Playin' Tricks on Me". No, danas se mnogi sjecaju te grupe samo po tome što je to bila prva Scarfaceova grupa. Sad se opet vracamo zapadnoj obali. Ice Cube je prvi napustio N.W.A. i 1990. g. snimio svoj prvi solo album "AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted" (nisu slucajno 3 velika slova "K" u rijeci "AmeriKKKa"), a ostatak ekipe je snimio drugi N.W.A. album "Niggaz4Life" bez njega, ali pokazalo se da je ipak Cube bio glavna karika u lancu i da su bez njega slabi, tako da su se uskoro potpuno raspali. No, ni to nije prošlo kulturno. Slijedila su prepucavanja preko pjesama: prvo su se pljuvali Eazy i Cube, onda Eazy i Dre.
Rapperi u New Yorku, medutim, nisu cijenili "gangsta rap", kao ni svoje kolege sa zapadne obale. Cak štoviše, imali su stav da je gangsta rap samoubojstvo mlade Crne populacije. Grupa Public Enemy na cetvrtom albumu "Apocalypse 91...The Enemy Strikes Black" iz 1991. g. okrece svoj nišan od bogatih bijelih vlastodržaca prema Crnim gangsterima i ukazuje na to koliko ilegalan nacin zarade šteti Crnoj zajednici u Americi. Iako je taj album jako dobro prodan (s njega su skinuti hitovi "Can't Truss It", "Nighttrain", "By the Time I Get to Arizona" i "I Don't Wanna Be Called Yo Nigga"), ocito je bilo da njihova popularnost opada u odnosu na "gangstere" iz L.A-a.
na prijelazu iz 80-ih u 90-e godine prošlog stoljeca. Hip-Hop je u to vrijeme postajao sve popularniji i sve se više nametao americkoj javnosti. Iako je rap tada bio žešci nego ikada, sve više mladih, bez obzira na boju kože, poceo se poistovjecivati s ovim glazbenim pravcem, a nastajali su i prvi rap casopisi (legendarni "Word Up!").
Dok je u New Yorku vladala revolucionarna politicki angažirana struja (Public Enemy, BDP, Big Daddy Kane, Gang Starr...), na suprotnoj strani Amerike, u L.A-u pocela se razvijati pošast koju su kriticari kasnije nazvali "gangsta rap". Ice-T je bezazleno krenuo s takvim nacinom izražavanja u kojemu ni malo ne bira rijeci u svojim pjesmama, vec se koristi najsurovijim ulicnim žargonom, onakvim kakav koriste americki ulicari, najniži sloj društva. On ne samo da govori kao oni, nego se i poistovjecuje s njima. Prava pljuska americkoj javnosti bila je grupa N.W.A. (Niggaz Wit' Attitudez), koju su originalno sacinjavali Ice Cube, Eazy-E, Dr.Dre, MC Ren i DJ Yella. Njihov prvi album "Straight Outta Compton" izašao je 1989. g. i sranja su krenula. Za tadašnje vrijeme, bio je presedan da u CD shopovima širom SAD-a bude CD na kojem je svaka druga rijec "muthafucka", "bitch" ili nesto slicno, varijacije na temu. U pjesmama naši junaci bez dlake na jeziku govore o dilerima, prostitutkama, pištoljima i kurvama, ali ne u smislu kao da je to nešto negativno. Ice Cube je snimio 3 odlicna albuma do 1993. g, ali najmaštovitiji je bio Dr.Dre. On je 1992. svojim prvim solo albumom "The Chronic" zapoceo novi trend, koji je on sam nazvao G-funk. Otkrio je i novu zvijezdu, Snoop Doggy Dogga, koji mu gostuje na albumu. Album se prodao u 3 milijuna primjeraka (hitovi: "Nuthin' but a G-Thang", "Dre Day" i "Let Me Ride". Dvije godine kasnije izlazi dugoocekivani Snoopov album prvijenac "Doggystyle", naravno, u Dreovoj produkciji (stariji se sjecaju pjesama "What's My Name?" i "Gin & Juice". Gangsta rap je službeno mrtav, zapocela je nova zaraza: G-funk nije slavljenje poroka, vec jednostavno opuštanje uz laganu, rolajucu ljetnu mjuzu, žene, cuga & pljuga - to je bila bit te glazbe. Dok je na zapadnoj obali vladala "komercijalna" struja, na Istoku su se rapperi i dalje brinuli da hip-hop ne izgubi svoju bit i vracali glazbu njenim korijenima. 1991. pojavila se mlada grupa iz New Jerseya, koja je mnogo obecavala. Zovu se Naughty by Nature, a proslavili su se hitovima "O.P.P." i "Ghetto Bastard". Moram spomenuti i još neke newyorske grupe vazne za to vrijeme, kao što su De La Soul i A Tribe Called Quest. 1994. g. Public Enemy opet izlaze na površinu, pokazujuci da ih trendovi sa zapadne obale nisu uzdrmali. Njihov peti album "Muse Sick-N-Hour Mess Age" konacni je udarac gangsta rapu. Ali nisu se odrekli ni svojih starih tema, tako da u jednoj pjesmi cak pokopavaju americku zastavu. Nažalost, to je bio zadnji album prije nego su P.E. izgubili svoje znacenje i otišli na marginu. U prvoj polovici 90-ih godina Hip-Hop kultura se proširila po cijelom SAD-u, tako da se glavnina rap scene nije više nalazila samo u New Yorku i L.A-u. U New Jerseyu su pocele nicati odlicne grupe koje su gajile onaj izvorni b-boy zvuk. Naughty By Nature su se vratili 1993. s odlicnim drugim albumom "19 Naughty III", koji pamtimo po hitu "Hip-Hop Hooray". Iste godine u istom gradu pojavili su se Lords Of The Underground, a tu su bili i filozofski (ali ponekad i previše rasisticki) raspoloženi Poor Righteous Teachers. 1994. na scenu dolazi Nine, legendarni "bog" undergrounda. I Fugees. Da, malo ljudi zna da je ta grupa postojala i puno prije one famozne obrade "Killing Me Softly". 1994. je bila sudbonosna godina i za hip-hop scenu u Atlanti, glavnom gradu Georgije na Jugu SAD-a. Tamo grupa Outkast snima svoj prvi album nazvan "Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik", koji je definirao zvuk i cari južnjackog rapa: lagana glazba uz plesne beatove, savršena za ljetnu vožnju po gradu. Svi znate kako su Outkast postali svjetski popularni prošlih godina, zahvaljujuci hitovima "Ms. Jackson", "So Fresh, So Clean" i "Whole World", nakon 4 snimljena albuma.
U Chicagu je glavnu rijec vodio Common Sense, prvi predstavnik danas vrlo popularnog "revolutionary" stila, koji je kasnije morao zbog pravnih problema skratiti ime, tako da se danas zove samo Common. Njegov drugi album "Resurrection" pokazuje kako dubok rap može biti kada je MC izvrstan liricar.
Iz Philadelphije dolazi grupa The Roots, pravi hip-hop band, u kojem svaki clan svira instrument (dakle, "ziva" glazba) + MC. Njihov drugi album "Do You Want More?!!!!!???!" (1995) je objektivno jedan od najboljih rap albuma ikad snimljenih i žalosno je što Rootsi tek sad uživaju onu slavu i zaradu koju su još davno zaslužili. Danas su oni najveca koncertna hip-hop atrakcija.

Glavne su se stvari ipak dogadale u New Yorku. Kad se govori o povijesti rapa, ne može se zaobici Wu-Tang Clan, pravu malu vojsku koja broji cak 9 jakih MC-ja: Method Man, Ol' Dirty Bastard, RZA, Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, GZA, U-God, Masta Killah i Inspectah Deck. Uglavnom, svaki od njih snima i solo albume. Njihov prvi zajednicki album "Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chembers)" znacio je pocetak tzv. "wu-groznice" koja je dugo vladala medu hip-hop publikom, a još uvijek se osjeti, iako su se wu-tangovci pomalo "razvodnili" u zadnjih 5 godina. Nas, mladi i vrlo talentirani MC iz kvarta zvanog Queens Bridge, snima 1994. prvi album "Illmatic", koji ubrzo ulazi medu klasike hip-hopa. S tog albuma izdvojio bih pjesmu "NY State of Mind", koja produkcijski (DJ Premier) i liricki savršeno stvara u glavama slušatelja slike newyorskih ulica i kvartova, cak i ako nikad niste bili tamo. Nas je postao planetarno popularan medu širom publikom tek nakon drugog albuma "It Was Written" (1996), prvenstveno zbog pjesme "If I Ruled the World", na kojoj mu gostuje Lauryn Hill, tada još clanica grupe Fugees. Iz Nasovog kvarta dolazi Mobb Deep, još jedna grupa vrijedna spomena, koja je do danas snimila 5 odlicnih albuma. Tada vec dokazani majstori Guru i Premier (zna se - Gang Starr) 1994. godine snimaju 4. album "Hard to Earn", još jedno žestoko izdanje za prave hip-hop glave, a 4 godine poslije se vracaju dublji nego ikad s još jednim klasikom "Moment of Truth", s kojeg su skinuti singlovi "You Know My Steez", "Royalty" i "The Militia". Guru je, usporedno s radom u grupi Gang Starr, radio i na svom projektu Jazzmatazz, na kojemu je, u suradnji s raznim glazbenicima iz svijeta jazza, R&B-ja, soula i rapa, spajao razlicite glazbene stilove. Ne može se govoriti o New Yorku sredinom 90-ih, a da se ne spomene The Notorious B.I.G., još poznat kao Biggie, koji je potpisao za Puff Daddyjevu(P.Diddy) etiketu Bad Boy i snimio prvi album "Ready to Die", nakon kojega ga je newyorška publika zavoljela, a MTV je rado vrtio videospotove za singlove "Juicy", "Big Poppa" i "One More Chance". Biggie se kasnije zakacio sa svojim bivšim kompicem 2 Pacom iz LA-a (ili obrnuto: 2 Pac se zakacio s njim). Uglavnom, rezultat je tužan: 2 Pac ubijen 1996. (pocinitelj nepoznat), a i Biggija je bogami ista sudbina zadesila par mjeseci kasnije (pocinitelj opet nepoznat). Bilo je to u travnju 1997. godine, nepoznate osobe izrešetale su automobil u kojemu se vozio i tako je otišao još jedan veliki rapper, The Notorious B.I.G. (pravim imenom Christopher Wallace). Ubrzo nakon Biggiejeve smrti, Bad Boy izdaje njegov dvostruki album (drugi po redu), pod nazivom "Life after Death". Album je bio veliki hit s obe strane bare (pamtimo ga po hitovima "Hypnotize" i "Mo' Money, Mo' Problemz", ali ima gore još puno boljih stvari). Prava je šteta što Biggie nije doživio da uživa u plodovima svog rada, a na njegovoj tragediji cini se da je najviše profitirao Puff Daddy, koji je cak snimio onu ljigavu stvar "I'll Be Missing You" i posvetio ju Biggieju, a u pjesmi gostuje Biggiejeva supruga Faith Evans, za koju se Tupac hvalio da ju je svojevremeno ševio. I tako, dok je cijela scena pala u emotivnu krizu zbog velikih tragedija, neki su ljudi od svega toga uspjeli napraviti cirkus.
U svakom slucaju, da su stvari bile drugacije (i da je drukciji mentalitet u igri), Biggie i Pac bi danas bili vjerojatno i popularniji od jednog Eminema ili 50 Centa. Obojica su bili talentirani i puno su obecavali. Da su oni živi, danas bi hip-hop možda bio bogatiji, možda cak i drugaciji. Šteta, nikad necemo znati.

Graffiti
To je vizualni element. U početku su grafiti bili smatrani vandalizmom, danas je to vrlo cijenjena umjetnost. Ljudi koji crtaju grafite zovu se writeri. U grafitima je, kao i u ostalim elementima Hip-Hopa, najvažnija originalnost. Svaki writer ce za svoje piece-eve, bombe i taggove vaditi ideje iz svoje glave.
Nemajuci likovne galerije i kistove,
crni Amerikanci poceli su autolak-sprejevima oslikavali zidove
To jest Graffite!!!!!!!!!!!
Grafiti su u svjetu nastali 70-ih godina u New Yorku
gdje su bande oznacavale s tim teritori .
Nakon toga su pojedinci izmislili umjetnicka imena i crtali, sarali ih po kvartovima
a kasnje je preslo na vozila(autobus,vlak,auto,konbi,kamione...)
To je bilo idealno, jel je to bila putujuca reklama.
Pomocu filmova i spotova muzickih, doslo je u europu 80-ih
najprije u Njemacku, pa u francusku, a kasnje po Balkanu
Graffiti se danas negdje ubrajaju u umjetnicka djela
no korjeni vuku iz ispisivanja socijalno angaziranih poruka po ulici Bronxa.
