Popular African American Culture

In African American popular culture, the thing that stands out to me the most is music, dance, and rhythm. African American music has evolved a great deal and has become one of the most popular types of music today. Hip hop and R & B are my favorite types of music and the beat and rhythm in these genres are just fun to listen to and dance to. They give off a happy vibe and make it so you can sing along or even bob your head with the beats. Dancing is one of my favorite things to do as a hobby and I find it that popular dancing shows such as Americas Next Dance Crew is centered around very successful African American dance crews. It just amazes me to watch their flow and fast paced moves to the music. Hip hop dancing evolved from hip hop music and hip hop dancing is so fascinating to me. The intricate moves look so hard to learn but when performed, they look outstanding. Dancing is so pretty to watch and the emergence of hip hop and different types of dance has become a big part of African American popular culture.
