| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - Company Flow - History El-P had had a disastrous experience with a record label in an attempt at a solo deal, and founded the group after serving as an intern for an entertainment lawyer. With DJ Mr. Len, Company Flow released "Juvenile Techniques" in 1993 (see 1993 in music). The follow-up, "8 Steps to Perfection", and the debut EP, Funcrusher (1995), were underground hits. Subject to a major label bidding war on Libra records, Company Flow waited until they could get a contract on their own terms. They eventually signed to Rawkus, and helping to revitaliz ...

| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - Music history of the United States 1980s to the present - 1980s The American music industry of the very early 1980s was in a state of flux, which Reebee Garofolo claims reflects the state of American society, in turmoil with the election of Ronald Reagan (p. 353). Disco, the most popular style of the late 1970s, was dead, and the once vibrant field of punk rock was fractured, producing offshoots like New Wave music. The term New Wave was used very loosely, describing a vast range of styles from the arty punk of Elvis Costello to the Talking Heads and the New Romantics; this vagueness temporarily t ...

| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - Selling out - Music The phrase is often heard in the musical community, where it is used to imply that an artist has compromised their artistic integrity in order to gain radio airplay or obtain a recording contract, especially with a major label, the classic example of this being when Chumbawumba signed to EMI after years of viciously attacking the organisation. Often, the label will force the style of a particular record producer on the performer, or insist on inclusion of songs by commercial songwriters; or the label may refuse to release an album, deeming it uncommercial, though this indicates that the artist or group ...

| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - 3 Feet High and Rising - The music Released amid the 1989 boom in gangsta rap, which gravitated towards hardcore, confrontational, violent lyrics, De La Soul's uniquely positive style made them an oddity beginning with the first single, "Me, Myself and I". Their positivity meant many observors labeled them a "hippie" group, based on their declaration of the "D.A.I.S.Y. Age" (da inner sound, y'all). Sampling artists as diverse as Johnny Cash, Hall & Oates, Steely Dan's "Peg" and The Turtles, 3 Feet High and Rising is often viewed as the stylistic beginning of ...

| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - Hip hop music - History Hip-hop music can be divided into three eras. The Old school hip-hop era, from 1970 to 1986, spanned from the beginning of hip-hop until its emergence into the mainstream. The golden age of hip hop, from 1986 - 1993, consolidated the sounds of the East Coast and the West Coast, and transitioned into the modern era with the rise of gangsta rap and G-funk. The Modern era of hip hop, from 1993 to the present day, saw hip hop music becoming one of the most popular and successful forms of American music.

| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - Hip hop music - DJ'ing and Production The instrumentation of hip-hop is descended from disco, funk, dub, and R&B. Disco and club DJs' use of mixing originated from the need to have continuous music and thus smooth transitions between tracks, while in hip hop Kool DJ Herc originated the practice of isolating and extending only the break (the percussive solo of funky American songs). DJ Herc's techniques have been developed and expanded upon by DJ's such as Grandmaster Flash, Grandwizard Theodore, and ...

| | | | alternative hip hop: Encyclopedia II - History of hip hop music - The 1980s The 1980s saw intense diversification in hip hop, which developed into a more complex form. The simple tales of 1970s emcees were replaced by highly metaphoric lyrics rapping over complex, multi-layered beats. Some rappers even became mainstream pop performers, including Kurtis Blow, whose appearance in a Sprite commercial made him the first hip hop musician to be considered mainstream enough to represent a major product, but also the first to be accused by the hip-hop audience of selling out. Other popular performer among mainstream audiences included LL Cool J, Slick Rick, and DJ Jazzy jeff and the f ...
