Just because Afrika Bambaataa defined the 4 elements back in the day doesn't mean that they remain a constant or that hip hop hasn't changed. I mean look how big emceeing has gotten, whereas graffiti has largely little impact today. And how much does graffiti even relate to emceeing today? Then there are also parts of hip hop that are much more relevant than graffiti yet haven't been defined by the elements like style and fashion. And b-boying should be broadened into the more general category of hip hop dance.young man..think befor u talk..hiphop101 for u(dont take it personal please)...those four elements is what the 10 commandments are to the bible...aint no changing that shit...so go listen to your young money cd a chill the fuck out...cause those rules are in stone...from dre to snoop to scareface knows this.

I do believe that there is such a thing as being real but I don't think it reflects on the quality of the music. It just reflects on the listener caring if the music factual or not. For example, Rick Ross is not real but it doesn't matter because most people like his music. Yet, to me, Reks is real and I still like his music. It indirectly affects the music whether or not the audience appreciates an honest perspective.
