Native peoples were the first inhabitants of the United States and played their first songs. Beginning in the 17th century, immigrants from the UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany and France began to arrive in great numbers, bringing with them new styles and instruments. African slaves brought musical traditions and each wave of immigrants contributed to the miscegenation.

In the United States, we can name the Blues as one of the first genuinely American genres. With a strong African influence, the blues is like a kind of matrix of all music that has derived from it, such as jazz, folk, country, gospel, funk and rock`n`roll. One of the top representatives was Robert Johnson.

Hip-hop emerged in the 1970s as a cultural movement among Latin Americans, Jamaicans and African-Americans in New York City more precisely in the South Bronx.

The disc-jockey Afrika Bambaataa is considered as the pioneer and creator of this highly influential social movement.

On November 12, 1973, he founded the Zulu Nation, a self-affirming organization that promoted combat through the four strands of hip-hop and invoked "Peace, Union and Fun." This day is, to this day, celebrated as the day of the birth of hip-hop.

The narrative of the film unfolds in two festivals of folk music, one in the United States and another in Europe,with his plot concentrating on visceral musical numbers and long testimonials in which artists philosophize and talk about their lives and cultures.

The bands and solo artists that perform at the festivals in question do not sell thousands of records, are not among the most accessed in the life-style of youtubes and are not aseptic celebrities - they are men and women in search of a free way to express their pains and joys.

Littler demonstrates remarkable sensitivity in the way that "Hard Soil" embraces this universe: instead of distance learning, an aesthetic poetics prevails and values much more the feeling than the simple historical clarification of what is happening on the scene.

The Beatles was a British rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. It is the most successful and acclaimed musical group in the history of popular music. From 1962, the group consisted of John Lennon (vocal and rhythm guitar), Paul McCartney (bass, piano and vocals), George Harrison (lead vocals) and Ringo Starr (drums and vocals). Rooted in the skiffle and rock and roll of the 1950s, the band later came to take on diverse genres ranging from folk rock to psychedelic rock, often incorporating elements of classical music and others in innovative and creative ways.
1963-64: American Success

Although the band experienced huge popularity in the UK charts in early 1963, US label Capitol Records, a subsidiary of EMI (which the group was hired), declined to produce the compact "Please Please Me" and "From Me to You ", first success of the group that reached first place in the United Kingdom.

Tupac Shakur: hip-hop legend!

Tupac Shakur - in full Tupac Amaru Shakur, original name Lesane Parish Crooks, bynames 2Pac and Makaveli - was an American rapper and actor who came to embody the 1990s gangsta-rap aesthetic and in death became an icon symbolizing noble struggle.

He was one of the most dynamic, influential and self-destructive pop stars of the Nineties. The rapper's husky voice described his stark contradictions, setting misogyny against praise of strong women, hard-won wisdom against the violence of the "thug life" — words he had tattooed across his torso.

On April 7, 2017 Tupac Shakur was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, one of music's highest honors. A worthy inclusion for a rapper held by many to have been the greatest of all time.

He has sold 75 million albums to date, making him one of the top-selling artists of all time. A sensitive, precociously talented and troubled soul, Tupac was gunned down in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996 and died six days later.
