The History of Freestyle Rap

Many people believe that rap and even freestyle rap is a modern invention. However there is evidence that indicates that it's origins go back much further than many think. Such evidence suggests that the earliest roots of freestyling can be traced to tribal ceremonies in both Africa and South America many decades ago.

In it's more recent rap form freestyling emerged out of the East Coast hip hop scene in the United States in the 1970s. In these early days MCs would simply jump on to the mic to freestyle lyrics at parties in order to keep the crowd lively. From this obviously competition between MCs rose and eventually rap freestyle battles as we know them today emerged. The aim was simple and has remained unchanged; out do your opponent with the subtleness and humour of your lyrics.

Freestyles are often used as a way to disrespect or undermine a rival. In fact rappers such as the late 2Pac used a freestyle based rap over his rivals (Biggie Smalls) rap where he dissed him and even claimed to have slept with his wife. More recently freestyling as an art form has been further highlighted by the film 8 Mile where Eminem brought freestyle rap to the attention of the worlds cinema goers.

In the 8 Mile formal organised freestyle battles were highlighted. These competitions involve two rappers in each round going head to head where each gets between 30 seconds and a minute on the microphone to do their best. The winner (often judged by the crowd) goes through to the next round, the loser is out. This continues until there is only one freestyler left who is declared the winner. These battles usually happen in hip hop clubs or on the radio.

Hip Hop Craze

Take you ever noticed the kid in the mall wear a chain and cross gleaming with what looks like diamond jewelry? They aren’t diamonds, of course and they may not be kids. In today’s Hip Hop age we are facing an explosion of interest in these “fake” adamants better known as cubic zirconia. Hip Hop fans of all ages are imitating their rap idols in their adornment of the most fantastic types of jewelry accessories. A whole different genre of style and project has been canonical as a result with its own speech and limits. 
 The rich rise of the rap industry as a keystone in our ethnic landscape is undeniable. Mass of all races, material backgrounds and different regions of the Earth have been affected. Hip Hop has passed its themes in the underground and has long since crossed over into the mainstream. This phenomenon has produced different cottage manufactures specializing in all things Hip Hop. Wearing a chain or donning some shiny earrings symbolise the advancement of the Hip Hop lifestyle. It bellows out the winner of an person in the ability to pimp these high-priced details. Diamonds and gold have become the ornaments of Hip Hop, the outwardly physical manifestation of wealth.
     Many of us take checked music video recordings starring rappers such as Nelly, 50 cent and Eminem. They are normally ready with the closest women, the quickest cars and the most heavily diamond laced jewelry. This style got early in Hip Hop as commercially successful rap fables such as LL Cool J sported thick gold chains drawing the attention of all Hip Hop fans across the world. Here was the beginning of the administration of a ethnic trend crossing from mode to speech.
    Have you heard of terms such as bling, grillz and iced out? You might know what some of these conditions mean close if you’re not a rap fan. These are words used to describe the different states of diamond jewellery. You’re adamant see is decidedly blinging(shining, glittering). If you ever profits the lottery you might take getting diamonds involved to your teeth representing your grillz. Or you could buy a heavily iced out based to match your bling watch and your frosty grillz. And so on and so forth. Ok, so let’s go back to that kid in the mall with the chain. He’s likely working at Burger King and won’t be cashing in any stocks soon that would allow him to purchase a pair of 1CT princess cut diamond earrings precious $5,000. Instead, he is going for the next best thing. The “fake” diamond, otherwise know as cubic zirconia. 
    Cubic Zirconia can be easy wrong for a diamond. In fact, one factor in identifying a cubic zirconia stone is noting it’s brilliance. CZ stones are actually more than brilliant, more symmetrical and show more fire(the dispersion of white light into a rainbow of colors) than true diamonds. CZ forms naturally although the type applied in jewelry is man made. Mostly, the best CZ is produced in labs in Russia. So why are diamonds so much more valuable? The popularity of diamonds as a wearable gemstone increased in the 19th century as cutting and polishing patterns improved. Diamonds had mainly been used industrially as they are able to cut through most materials until this time. Diamonds are the hardest gemstones known to many getting them scratch resistant and easily polished. As a result of their legendary durability and the brilliance and fire they show, diamonds have get the popular gemstone for the most great and valuable figures of jewellery, in special, engagement rings. 
    Regardless of the respect of diamonds vs. CZ, economically thither is no compare. In put for those Hip Hop fans to achieve the look and look of their idols they get turned always to cubic zirconia.
