    Hip hop began in 1970s New York City and has four main stylistic elements: MCing, DJing, breaking/scratching, and graffiti writing. It originated as a form of expression for rappers to represent their communities and struggles. Over time, recording labels have shaped artists to maintain a marketable public image so they stay relevant in the music business. Main ideologies include using language that represents American society and the culture it aims to showcase, especially to judicial systems and authority figures. Popular artists today like ASAP Rocky, Eminem, Wiz Khalifa, Dr. Dre, and N.W.A may portray stereotypical conventions of wealth, masculinity, and women in their music and image
