hip hop? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Titania · 12-04-2003, 04:26 PM

okay, question for you all. (please help!!)

I have this dance audition and the music requirements are that it must be hip hop.
I'm as far away from this as you can get, I listen to mostly soft rock and some pop, soundtracks, etc...

Sooo...what classifies as hip hop music? Any suggestions for artists or songs I could use? I really dislike rap but I'm open for ideas at the moment.

Busta Rhymes- "Light Your Ass On Fire"
Ludacris- "Stand Up"
Outkast- "The Way You Move"
Missy Elliott- "Pass That Dutch"

If you want to stick to the pop/hip-hop type, try "I Got That (Boom Boom)" by Britney Spears.

I love the stuff from the early 90s.
Uptempo dance or slower?

My suggestions:

slower- Electric Relaxation A Tribe Called Quest

faster- The Choice is Yours Black Sheep

faster- Mama's Always on Stage Arrested Development

Good luck!

I'll go with another Arrested Development- Fishin' for Religion
Gimme Some Mo'- Busta Rhymes (if you've ever heard this guy rap, he's known for doing it at 300 mph! So it *may* be a little too frantic. But I think he's brilliant)
