The Most Influential Hip Hop Artists – In Pictures
1/18 Afrika Bambaataa
If Herc is the father of hip hop, Afrika Bambaataa is one of the godfathers. He founded the Universal Zulu Nation collective and, inspired by Herc to start his own DJ nights, he took these breakbeats and ran with them – first, to clubs in downtown New York, where they have become hugely popular, and even further. With the Soulsonic Force, a group founded by Bam, he released in 1982 the planetar Planet Rock, which injects the energy of electronic dance into hip-hop funk and is in many ways a forerunner of the music. obsession of the 90s for the music of George Clinton.

2/18 Kool Herc
This was at a legendary party in 1520 at Sedgwick Avenue, a block of flats in the Bronx, at New York, where hip-hop is born. Who attended the party depends on who you ask – enough people claim to have been there to fill the building ten times – but the responsible man does not matter: Kool Herc. That evening in August 1973, Herc (whose real name is Clive Campbell) covers two copies of the same record on a pair of decks, squarely focusing on the "break". – the percussive part of the song, free of voices. The idea was to repeat the pause between the two discs and to make people dance longer, but this laid the groundwork for the loops and samples that would come to define the hip-hop sound. Although Campbell never had much commercial success and was overshadowed in many ways by the two men who followed him on this list, his place in the homeland of hip-hop is unshakeable [19659014] Getty Images
3/18 Grandmaster Flash [19659013] Nothing short of an innovator, Grandmaster Flash took what he saw around him – the Bronx evenings , turntables, disco songs sliced - and made it his own. He was the pioneer of scratching and mixing rhythms, techniques that are so common now but in the 1970s were incredibly new. His live single, The Adventures of Grandmaster Flash on Steel Wheels, is a DJ manual to this day, while The Message, released with the group of Furious Five rappers in 1982, was the only one of its kind. one of the first songs to prove how hip-hop can be associated with social commentary

4/18 Rakim
Rakim was a new breed of MC. Rather than letting her rhymes punctuated by the rhythms of her tracks, her meticulously crafted bars intertwine in rhythms with a tide that explores the space between the two, in the same way as a line. John Coltrane saxophone flutters around a drum beat. The rhymes were in the words, rather than just at the end of the lines, and showed future MCs how artful a form could be (a good example, in 1992, Do not Sweat the Technique: "They never get older, the techniques become antiques / better than something brand new because it's real / and in a while the style will be much more valuable "). Alongside the genius of Eric B , he trained one of the greatest MC / DJ duets we've ever seen.

5/18 Dr. Dre
Dr. Dre helped transform the face of hip-hop in the surly and disturbing look of gangsta rap, his production is the origin of G-funk, the beloved George Clinton sound that ruled the west coast in the '90s. most beloved beats of the time – Snoop Dogg's Gin and Juice, Tupac's California Love, the breathtaking single "Eminem, My Name Is, and many others – and helped launch the careers of artists (including putting Compton on the hip-hop map). He also showed the scene how to be truly savvy, co-owner Death Row Records fonder Aftermath Entertainment and of course feed his Beats helmet business into the billion dollar behemoth he's in today.

6/18 Ice Cube
Another passionate defender of gangsta rap, Ice Cube did not care to become a model and made his hip-hop version a dark reflection racial and political tensions in America. He was abrasive and violent in his music, with words and sounds that were harder than anything that had preceded him. His work in NWA, as well as his subsequent solo albums in the early 90's, showed how hip-hop can be formidable. He has also paved the way for multidisciplinary rappers, with his commercial film career, though not always very successful.

7/18 Notorious BIG
He was not the original storyteller in hip hop, but before him – and indeed after – he was born. There was not much better to tell a story than Biggie Smalls. Through his stream of jazz-scat and his ingenious wordplay, he painted a picture of New York with words full of bravado but not free from introspection, which showed to others that it was possible to do both. He was the face of the famous East-West beef, which ultimately cost him his life, but he put his side of the country back on the hip hop map and inspired countless other people after him to do the same. It's hard to believe that a man who has changed so much died when he was only 24 years old.

8/18 Tupac
Rapper, Actor, Civil Rights Activist – Tupac Shakur has redefined what a rapper could be in a life that does not even lasted a quarter of a century. He was another rapper to shamelessly reflect what was happening in the environment around him – racism, poverty, toxic masculinity – and brought it to a global audience, selling millions of disks in the process. His influence is still felt today – in fact, the whole thematic framework of Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly, arguably the greatest hip-hop album out of this millennium, was based on an imaginary and illuminating conversation between Lamar and Shakur.
Rex
9/18 Nas
With his 1994 classic, Illmatic, Nas presents himself as one of New York's best talents. A master rhymer, he made it fashionable to be lyrical, with incredibly dense bars and infallible delivery. The rest of his discography is mixed, but with a number of unmistakable strong points, such as his stillmatic album of 2001 with clear and scary eyes, but it's that first album that's still considered an icon of what means to be a rapper that part of the East Coast.

10/18 Jay-Z
"I had 99 problems, but one [insert here] is not one". If nothing else, Jay-Z must be considered influential to invent this line constantly repeated, constantly changed. This also illustrates the impact of Jay-Z not only on the world of rap, but also on the dominant consciousness. He is a perennial hitmaker and Billboard-topper, with 14 US singles number one to his name. But he is also a successful businessman who has risen through the ranks of petty crime to become a major player in fashion, sports and finance.

11/18 Andre 3000 [19659013] There was a time in the mid-90s when it seemed impossible to overthrow the east and west coasts – rap quarrels, superstars and world success – but as part of Outkast Andre 3000 assured that no one could ignore the southern scene of America. With a sound and sound that could only come from the deep South, they staged a scene that would produce some of the biggest stars of hip-hop (with the most recent example of Migos conquerors of the world) . But despite the fact that he was part of a duet, André 3000 stood out as an individual, with his inimitable flow and his inventive and always inventive fashion sense, which added to his personal mystique and his influence.

12/18 Lauryn Hill
While female rappers are making real waves today – Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, Rapsody, to name just a few. some – this was not always the case (that our list has only two women). history dominated by hip-hop men). But Lauryn Hill was a game changer. As a member of Fugees, but mainly with her only solo album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill in 1998, she broke the barriers for female artists. She showed how the women in the scene were not only objects to rap, but also those who had to rap. Miseducation, a vital and essential album, gave us an unshakeable feminine perspective on love and life and showed how hip-hop could be soulful, helping to launch neo-soul into the process.

13/18 Eminem
Eminem was not only the best-selling rapper of the 2000s – he was the best-selling musician , period. He, perhaps more than any other rapper, has proven how hip hop can dominate the popular sphere, both commercially and culturally. In terms of sound, there are not many that look like Marshall Mathers. However, through his piercing flow and his often uncomfortable subjects, he has given a voice to the weird strangeness that permeates both American culture – as well as bombastic stupidity – and has paved the way for future generations.

14/18 Kanye West
Egotist, unbalanced, inexorable, fervent, genius – Kanye West is nothing distinctive. He brought back soul samples to masses with his production, has a love of leftfield fashion, specializes in emotionally vulnerable lyrics and constantly reinvents himself musically. He has shown the world that you can be your own strange self and still have tremendous success, both in terms of critical reception and record sales. With an outrageously long list of production credits to his name, he has also helped advance the careers of so many others (there is a good chance that one of your favorite hip-hop songs will be produced by Kanye, and you do not even know it). Getty Images
15/18 Dilla J
J Dilla is the favorite producer of your favorite producer. While he had significant competence as an MC, featured in the Slum Village trio, he was as a beat craftsman that he excelled. With an all-encompassing musical knowledge, he spotted moments of songs that most of us had not even noticed, isolated them and turned them into something must-haves. He was a serial collaborator – helping to shape the sound of Madlib, Erykah Badu and many others – and fragments of his jazzy inflections and captivating and intoxicating rhythms are now found throughout hip hop.
16/18 Kendrick Lamar
Kendrick Lamar of Compton has reshaped contemporary hip-hop to his image. With his album To Pimp a Butterfly of 2015, he revived the infatuation with the scene for the funk and the old-school soul. His experiments with his own voice, his changing tones, his flow and his personalities, ushered in a new era of deeply conceptual hip-hop, while having a huge success with record sales. But its social impact was equally seismic: it brought conscious storytelling back into fashion, and was fiercely political. His Alright song was adopted as a glimmer of hope by the Black Lives Matter movement, whose cause defines modern American politics. (Oh, and he is one of Barack Obama's favorite rappers When one of the world's most powerful men screams you must be considered influential.)
Getty Images for Coachella [19659056] 17/18 Nicki Minaj
In 2010, Nicki Minaj jumped on a track, Monster, with Kanye West, Jay-Z and Rick Ross, dropped a couplet, and destroyed them all. For many, it was a startling introduction to a rapper who would dominate pop music, fashion, and social politics for much of this decade, repeatedly removing barriers for female artists in the scene. All she's doing is bold, fearless and distinct – whether it's her eye-popping stage outfit or her expertly delivered lyrics, which look at sex and the dead race in the eyes. She also enjoyed tremendous commercial success, dominating the Billboard 100 – no other female rapper in history has done more than Minaj

18/18 Drake [19659013] Drake is the superstar of modern rap. His songs have been broadcast billions of times, millions of people follow him on social media and he is a fashion icon. Musically, he is not afraid to change his style, with emotion-filled lyrics defining his production, both rapped and sung, and a sound that always sets the trend – his obsession with British grime and its integration into the American sound. Example. It will only get bigger with time
