History of Rap and Hip Hop with Mood board

This is a mood board of the music magazines based around the genre Rap and Hip Hop. As you can see on the mood board, I've selected 3 types of companies that publish these type of magazines and how different their type of layouts are compared to one another.

Hip Hop first originated in the early 1970s in New York City. One of the creators known to be the pioneers of Hip Hop is named Grandmaster Flash. He's known to be a producer and DJ now in the industry. Throughout these years, Rap and Hip Hop has advanced as there have become split sections such as mainstream and underground. The mainstream artists usually use repetitive beats that chain in together with different type of tempos to bring in audiences, as for the underground artists their music is produced with more original style of instrumentals rather than loudness and bass. Also there have become more major labels becoming associated with these genres due to it being one of the most popular ones. From the major labels artists within the industries become to create sub labels to form their own label with their own group or up coming artists to continue the chain.
