What kind of culture is rap culture?

Rap is a word in black slang (dialect), which is equivalent to "talking", and Chinese means rap. That is, a special form of singing with rhythm. Originated from the poor black community in new york. It is characterized by telling a series of rhyming poems quickly under the background of mechanical rhythm. One of the sources of this form is a fast rhyming jargon used by radio presenters to introduce records in the past.

Hip-hop is a kind of black culture that began in the streets of the United States more than 20 years ago, and also refers to rap.

Hip-hop culture can be expressed in four ways, including rap (rhythmic speech), b-boying (street dance), dj-ing (skills of playing records and discs) and raffiti writing (graffiti art).

So rap is just an element of hip-hop culture, other dances, costumes, attitudes towards life and so on. It should be added to form a complete hip-hop culture.
