What is undeniable, though, is that in the 50 years since that event, hip-hop has evolved, grown and influenced nearly every aspect of modern U.S. culture \u2013 from dance, theater and literature to visual arts and fashion.<\/p>\n<p>But at the heart will always be the music. Leading up to the landmark anniversary, The Conversation reached out to hip-hop academics \u2013 it is a scholarly pursuit, too \u2013 to help provide context on how the genre has transformed modern culture, not just in the U.S. but around the world. Below is a selection of the <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/us\/topics\/hip-hop-50-135779\">resulting articles<\/a>, introduced by a key track featured in their writing.<\/p>\n<h2>1. \u2018Rapper\u2019s Delight\u2019 \u2013 The Sugarhill Gang<\/h2>\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mcCK99wHrk0?wmode=transparent&amp;start=0\" width=\"440\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>No history of hip-hop would be complete without this 1979 track by The Sugarhill Gang. But along with being an old-school classic, it also kick-started hip-hop\u2019s global expansion.<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wesleyan.edu\/academics\/faculty\/echarry\/profile.html\">Eric Charry<\/a>, a music professor at Wesleyan University, explained, within months of its being released, versions of \u201cRapper\u2019s Delight\u201d were being recorded in Brazil, Jamaica, Germany and the Netherlands. Within a year or so, the song\u2019s DNA had spread to Japan and Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt marked the beginning of the globalization of rap music and the broader hip-hop culture in which it is embedded, which includes deejaying, break-dancing and graffiti-tagging,\u201d Charry wrote. But this global spread created what <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/after-rappers-delight-hip-hop-went-global-its-impact-has-been-massive-so-too-efforts-to-keep-it-real-206373\">Charry described as a paradox<\/a>: \u201cThe Black American urban culture that birthed rap and hip-hop makes up its very fabric. But so does the core idea of representing one\u2019s own experience and place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This led to questions of authenticity that global rappers have contended with ever since, with some digging into their own local culture to square the circle.<\/p>\n<h2>2. \u2018Planet Rock\u2019 \u2013 Afrika Bambaataa &amp; The Soulsonic Force<\/h2>\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9J3lwZjHenA?wmode=transparent&amp;start=0\" width=\"440\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>Despite building on samples and influences from the past, hip-hop as a genre has always pointed forward \u2013 as this 1981 track from Afrika Bambaataa &amp; Soulsonic Force exemplifies. \u201cPlanet rock\u201d also forms part of a tradition in which <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/through-space-and-rhyme-how-hip-hop-uses-afrofuturism-to-take-listeners-on-journeys-of-empowerment-203887\">rappers lean on Afrofuturism<\/a> \u2013 a mix of science fiction, politics and liberating fantasy \u2013 to \u201cinform their lyrics and their look,\u201d as Roy Whitaker, a scholar of Africana philosophy of religions at San Diego State University, explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHip-hop artists influenced by Afrofuturism have long been aware that American society made many Black, Indigenous and other people of color feel different \u2013 less than human, or even like aliens \u2013 and expressed this through their art. And like socially conscious hip-hop, Afrofuturism has always had a political element,\u201d Whitaker wrote, noting the influence that Afrofuturism pioneers such as musicians Sun Ra and George Clinton and science fiction novelist Octavia Butler had on rap artists from Public Enemy and OutKast to Kendrick Lamar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll in all, Afrofuturism counsels marginalized peoples to reassess past wounds and present injustices, while reassuring them that there are possible futures where they can feel they belong,\u201d Whitaker concluded.<\/p>\n<h2>3. \u2018Stan\u2019 \u2013 Eminem, featuring Elton John<\/h2>\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eOAiwE48g10?wmode=transparent&amp;start=0\" width=\"440\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>OK, this is a live performance from the 2001 Grammy Awards show and not a recorded track \u2013 though Eminem did release a version of \u201cStan\u201d featuring British singer Dido a year earlier. But it was a pivotal moment in rap history: Eminem dueting with pop royalty Elton John underscored how hip-hop by the beginning of the 21st century had been accepted by the mainstream music industry.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, it came at a time when Eminem was deemed deeply controversial because of his use of anti-gay slurs in his tracks. Yet here he was being embraced \u2013 both figuratively and physically \u2013 by one of the world\u2019s most famous openly gay men. The moment forms part of the hip-hop\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/how-hip-hop-learned-to-call-out-homophobia-or-at-least-apologize-for-it-202819\">evolution on LGTBQ issues<\/a> that University of Richmond sociologist <a href=\"https:\/\/socanth.richmond.edu\/faculty\/moware\/\">Matthew Oware<\/a> detailed in his article.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that rappers are now having discussions over LGBTQ+ issues and apologizing for hateful speech in their earlier lyrics.<\/p>\n<p>As rap music hits its 50th anniversary, \u201cit is increasingly embracing challenges to \u2013 and debates about \u2013 homophobia,\u201d Oware wrote. \u201cThat is, hip-hop has evolved to the point where anti-gay rhetoric invites condemnation from members of the culture. It is still present in some rap lyrics \u2013 as indeed is true of all genres, from pop to country \u2013 but hip-hop is changing because of more progressive cultural views and greater LGBTQ+ representation.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>4. \u2018You Came Up\u2019 \u2013 Big Pun<\/h2>\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ibdvIKLgtg8?wmode=transparent&amp;start=0\" width=\"440\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>While hip-hop\u2019s origins lie in Black American communities, Latino culture is also deeply woven into its story: from pioneers like Kid Frost and Big Pun to Bad Bunny, one of the most-streamed artists making music today.<\/p>\n<p>The genre was \u201cmy first love,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/street-scrolls-the-beats-rhymes-and-spirituality-of-latin-hip-hop-201843\">wrote Alejandro Nava<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/religion.arizona.edu\/people\/nava\">a religious studies professor<\/a> at the University of Arizona. \u201cHip-hop had its finger on the pulse of Black and brown lives on the frayed edges of the Americas, lives like my father\u2019s and his father\u2019s before him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Big Pun, for example \u2013 raised in the South Bronx by his Puerto Rican family \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ibdvIKLgtg8\">alerted the world<\/a> that \u201cLatins goin\u2019 platinum was destined to come.\u201d Big Pun\u2019s rhymes \u201cspilled off his tongue in torrents of alliteration and assonance, rarely pausing to take a breath or gulp, as if he didn\u2019t require as much oxygen as other humans,\u201d Nava recalled.<\/p>\n<p>From coast to coast, young Latinos \u201cembraced hip-hop as an ingenious instrument of self-expression,\u201d asserting their place in American culture \u2013 and often calling for social change.<\/p>\n<h2>5. \u2018That\u2019s what the Black woman is like\u2019 \u2013 Arianna Puello<\/h2>\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eiAP5yyEQsY?wmode=transparent&amp;start=0\" width=\"440\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>Back in the day, as they still do now, rappers talked about their experiences on the margins of American society.
