Hip hop in Washington, D.C.
Hip hop music in Washington, D.C. has been an important part of the culture of the area. The traditional style of hip hop in the city has been described as not quite the same as New York City hip hop and not quite the same as Southern hip hop. Rather, it has been influenced by both regions to form its own unique style of music. The population of D.C. is not large enough to support as many distinct subgenres of rap as other metropolitan areas, and as a result, the sound and style of D.C. hip hop is very mixed and blended. Prominent D.C. based hip hop artists include Philippe Prosper, Phil Ade, (Bass.Love.Treble ), Wale, Fat Trel, Oddisee, Shy Glizzy, Lightshow,Primetime (King Prime), ANlo, Marlow, Ransom Razina and a few newcomers Niko Khalé, GoldLink, Ras Nebyu, Droyd & Jlusiano. Many of these newcomers are typically featured on local radio stations such as 93.9 WKYS.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=http://kysdc.com/3431861/dmvs-own-j-lusiano/ )〕
Hip hop music in Washington, D.C. has been greatly influenced by go-go music, a post-funk type of music that is only relevant in the District of Columbia. Go-go music was created in the D.C. area and remains a very significant aspect of the culture of the city and surrounding areas. Go-go emphasizes large percussion sections and incorporates call and response and shout-outs into its songs. This results in a crowd that is very active and involved with the music, responding by dancing and echoing the words. Chuck Brown is known as the "Godfather of go-go" but the genre is still alive today, with groups such as The Backyard Band, TCB, and UCB enjoying great local success.
