Nas, from his real name Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones is a very popular American rapper. He was born on 1973, he is from New York City, the birthplace of hip-hop. Nas is also regarded as one of the greatest rappers of all time. « Get down » a hip-hop/rap sound is an example of one of his kind of music.
Rap has a direct link with hip-hop because rapping (or MCing) is a musical movement which has its origins in hip-hop.
I chose to represent this movement by this rapper because he is one of the first to have adopted this culture which was new at that time.

Joseph Saddler, more commonly called Grandmaster Flash, is an American DJ (and rapper). Thus, it was him who created cutting. What's funny about him is that he's known and famous for scratching with his feet and toes.
Indeed, Grandmaster Flash has a direct link with hip-hop. He practices deejaying (DJing) which is one of the modes of expression of the hip-hop movement.
I chose this artist because in America, he is considered to be one of the pioneers of hip-hop DJing, cutting, scratching and mixing.
With his group "The Furious Five", Grandmaster Flash was the most innovative hip-hop artist between 1980s and 1985.

"Hey You" is the first single of the american group the "Rock Steady Crew" composed of several New York break-dancers.
This single knew a worldwide success in the 1980s. In this music, at 1:26, there is a breakdancer dancing.
Like rap and DJing, breakdance is a powerful means of communication. The relationship between music and dance is the product of hip-hop. The break is linked to the advent of break beat which are percussive rythms.
The break is danced mainly on the floor. It includes a vocabulary of footwork and acrobatic figures, the best know and most emblematic movement consists of turning on the head (like the dancer does in the clip of "Hey You").
I chose the link of this music because they are thus part of the first to have adopted the artistic movement of breakdance in the hip-hop culture.

Darryl McCray better know by his tagging name CornBread, is an American graffiti writer from Philadelphia. During the late 1960's, so 10 years before the creation of hip-hop, he and a group of friends started to "tagging" Philadelphia by writing their nicknames on walls accross city. The movement spread to New York and blossomed into the modern graffiti movement through the various arts of hip hop.
In hip-hop, graffiti is a movement and has even become an art to express poverty and inequalities felts by the population in poor neighbourhoods. It became a means of expression for them, just like breakdance and rap.
I decided to present the graffiti by CornBread because he is widely considered the world's first modern graffiti artist.
