Distinctions of Urban Culture The following piece was written by Get Lowe of Vivid Imagery who is one of Kasha's producers. It describes in quite some detail about where hip hop culture comes from. Hip Hop as an artform today has moved on greatly from the origins back in the 70's with influences from many forms of music and appeal to much larger audiences across the world. However for some artists the use of hip hop as medium to spread a message of positivity still remains and it still can be a refuge for the miss guided youth.
