If you think hip-hop is dead you don't know hip-hop.Snap is just a sub genre within hip-hop, if sub-genre's emerge within a genre it means it's expanding, meaning it's more alive then ever.You can also call it evolution and the Chimps didn't ruin the hominid family seeing how the humans are better then any species before it.
