Alternative Hip Hop

Alternative Hip Hop is a genre of music that combines elements of hip hop with other genres such as rock, jazz, funk, soul, and reggae. It is often characterized by its experimental nature, its use of sampling, and its incorporation of live instrumentation. It is often seen as a more progressive and creative form of hip hop, and is often seen as a reaction to the commercialization of mainstream hip hop. Artists in this genre often focus on social and political issues, and often use their music to express their views.
