Eventually this practice became more stylized and became known as rapping.
MCs began by speaking between songs, giving exhortations to dance, greetings to audience members, jokes and anecdotes. The early role of the MC was to introduce the DJ and the music and to keep the audience excited. Hip-hop began in New York City when DJs began isolating the percussion break from funk and disco songs. Sometimes a track can be instrumental, as a showcase of the skills of the DJ or producer. In addition to the beat other sounds are often sampled, synthesized, or performed. This beat is often created using a sample of the percussion break of another song, usually a funk, rock, or soul recording.
The rapper is accompanied by an instrumental track, usually referred to as a "beat", performed by a DJ, created by a producer, or one or more instrumentalists.
Typically, hip hop music consists of one or more rappers who tell semi-autobiographic tales, often relating to a fictionalized counterpart, in an intensely rhythmic lyrical form making abundant use of techniques like assonance, alliteration, and rhyme. Along with break dancing and graffiti (tagging), these compose the four elements of hip-hop, a cultural movement that was initiated by inner-city youth, mostly African Americans in New York City, in the early 1970s. It is made up of two main components: rapping (MCing) and DJing (audio mixing and scratching). Hip-hop music (also referred to as rap or rap music) is a style of popular music.
