Survey Says

Group 3
Hip Hop Culture Tallied Results out of 50 Surveyed
This survey was conducted on the North Miami campus of Johnson and Wales University. A total of 50 students were surveyed 12 questions on general theme about hip hop as a culture. The questions were statements which asked the students if they agreed, disagreed or remained neutral. The questions that had to do with hip hop only being recognized as a music genre as well as hip hop only being taught to high school and college students, most students disagreed with. Based on those results, it seemed as if Hip Hop should not be thought of as music alone and that hip hop culture should be taught to anyone of any age. The questions that discussed hip hop culture’s impact on the world, including cultural appropriation, genders, sexual orientation and the black community, most students agreed or strongly agreed with. Based on the results, it might be okay for races other than those within the black community to be a part of hip hop culture. Also it seems like women and people with in the LGBTQ community should receive more recognition for their hip hop music. Plus hip hop had made somewhat of an impact on the world and in their lives personally. The remaining survey asked questions of hip hop in the consumer market, hip hop in school curriculum and profane language in hip hop music. The topics are of which the result was neutral.
