Hip hop music involves rapping, looping, freestyle rap, scratching, beatboxing (vocal percussion). Plus, it is undoubtedly incomplete without hip hop dance. The music started out with only breakdancing/b-boying, but now includes locking, popping, and krumping as well. Overall, the music and dance emerged as a means of expression of the African-Americans, and became popular in the 1970s. Today, over 40 years after the evolution of hip hop dance, new styles are born everyday with a multitude of reality shows focusing on the best dance acts in the world.

ACOUSTIC GUITAR It is hollow, and is characterized by the presence of a sound hole that you see on the face of the guitar. It has six strings and produces a loud sound when you strike the chords. Acoustic guitars are relatively larger than electric guitars. The body of the guitar is hollow, that helps in amplifying the sounds the strings produce. Due to the hollow body, acoustic guitars tend to be larger than their electric counterparts, though they are not necessarily heavier.
It is possible to electronically amplify an acoustic guitar by adding pickups or microphones to the guitar body. ELECTRIC GUITAR Uses electronics to amplify the sound produced from plucking the strings. The sound is routed to an amplifier or mixer, and played back via a speaker. Electric guitars are usually solid, and do not feature a sound hole.
Also, due to the lack of a sound hole, it is not possible to play electric guitars, or rather, hear the sound produced by electric guitars properly, if they are not plugged in to an amplifier.
