Hip Hop is a culture and art movement developed in the Bronx in NYC during the late 1970s.

The godfathers of Hip Hop consist of DJ Kool-Herc, Afrika Bambaataa and Grandmaster Flash.

The first ever jam / dance party was hosted by DJ Kool-Herc at 1520 Sedgwic Avenue.

Ever since then, it was the accepted birthplace of Hip Hop.

While the term 'Hip Hop' is refered to as music these days, it is actually made up of 9 elements.
