I chose this article because this article talks about how hip hop has shaped music and culture worldwide for decades.Ā Hip-hop is such a well-known genre and people even look up to it. In “Gettin’ Paid: Jay-Z, Criminal Culture, and the Rise of Corporate Rap” it states “Over the past ten years, though, ācorporate rockā has been upstaged by ācorporate rap,ā which has emerged as the countryās new music.” Back in the days, people would hate rap music but now it’s a famous genre that people listen to all around the world, people enjoy it because of famous rappers like Jay Z and Kendric Lamar.
