Abstract

Over the course of the last three decades, the stratification of society has increased notably. In addition to segregating individuals by gender, age and race society has identified a number of new subcultures that are now an integral part of social discourse. While the development of subcultures is typically viewed as a positive process-as it enables individuals and society to better understand the objectives and needs of a particular group-the reality of labeling through subculture is that it can have a negative impact on how the subculture is viewed in society. To illustrate this point, one only needs to consider the stereotypes and labels that have been formulated as a result of public perception of hip-hop culture.Arguably, some the stereotyping that has occurred in the context of hip-hop culture comes from actual events that have taken place. However, it is the point of this research to demonstrate that the entire context of hip-hop culture is not as stereotypical as what is portrayed in the popular media. Through a careful consideration of what has been written about the development of hip-hop culture, it will be possible to demonstrate that this subculture has a positive side that needs to be separated from its stereotypical portrayal in the media
