THE HISTORY OF HIP HOP


















Origin of the term

Creation of the term hip hop is often credited to Keith Cowboy, rapper with Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five.[13] However, Lovebug Starski, Keith Cowboy, and DJ Hollywood used the term when the music was still known as disco rap. It is believed that Cowboy created the term while teasing a friend who had just joined the U.S. Army, by scat singing the words "hip/hop/hip/hop" in a way that mimicked the rhythmic cadence of soldiers marching.[13] Cowboy later worked the "hip hop" cadence into a part of his stage performance, which was quickly used by other artists such as The Sugarhill Gang in "Rapper's Delight".[13]
Universal Zulu Nation founder Afrika Bambaataa is credited with first using the term to describe the subculture in which the music belonged; although it is also suggested that it was a derogatory term to describe the type of music.[14] The first use of the term in print was in The Village Voice,[15] by Steven Hager, later author of a 1984 history of hip hop.[16]
Hip hop music originated as improvisations made to existing music by party DJs. Although hip hop music predates the introduction of rapping into hip hop culture, the majority of the genre is accompanied by rap vocals. However, rap vocals are absent from many hip hop tracks, such as "Hip Hop, Be Bop (Don’t Stop)" by Man Parrish; "Chinese Arithmetic" by Eric B. & Rakim; "Al-Naafiysh (The Soul)" and "We're Rocking the Planet" by Hashim; and "Destination Earth" by Newcleus.

Haiwezekani wananchi wakawa wanakufa kwa kukosa matibabu stahiki na wengine wakipata madhara kutokana na kuchelewa kupata matibabu sababu ya mgomo wa madaktari halafu viongozi wenye dhamana hawachukui hatua sahihi.
Rais Jakaya Kikwete ambaye ndiye mwenye dhamana kwa mujibu wa katiba ya Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania ibara ya 33 ndiye kiongozi wa shughuli za serikali na ibara ya 35 shughuli zote za utendaji wa serikali zinatekelezwa na watumishi wa serikali kwa niaba ya
