Chapter 660: The ancestors of hip-hop in China

It was all right now, the kitchen changed from three people to four people, three of whom were sitting behind watching Xiao Peng cooking.
Lu Ya wanted to help, so Xiao Peng drove away directly. The reason was nothing else. It was too stupid. The potato shreds were cut into KFC fries. Who would dare to use her? It's better to find someone to watch.
Xiao Peng was in a good mood. While cooking, he twisted his body and sang Yin San's songs. He also had a sense of rhythm.
Old Lu obviously can't appreciate hip-hop music: "You kid, just cook, what are you singing about? Do you recite the soundtrack?"
"This is the new Allegro?" Old Sun also asked.
Xiao Peng said silently: "You are so OUT, this is called hip-hop music." Xiao Peng replied without looking back.
Lu Ya knew it, and said to the old man: "This is a music style that originated from blacks in the Star Stripe country. It has become popular recently. Now there is a show called "China Hip Hop" which is very popular, and the click rate is very high. It's topical and entertaining."
After hearing this, Mr. Lu asked puzzledly: "That's what this music says? Are you sure this is not Allegro? Does China have such music now?"
Xiao Peng said without looking back: "Where does Huaxia have hip-hop? Huaxia only has hahahaha. It is difficult for us to have hip-hop. The key is that our cultural background is different. At that time, African-American blacks had a very low status in the Stars and Stripes, even if they were liberated. After the slaves, they have only changed from a "talking tool" to the lowest level of the people. They have no right to be educated, no right to vote, and even no right to sit on the bus."
"Since ancient times, the starting point of all movements has almost always started in the literary and artistic circles. They all started with sounds before they acted. The black movement is no exception. Blacks at that time were deeply mired in racial discrimination: drugs. , Poverty, and violence are inseparable from them. But blacks are blacks, and the blood is a race of beats and notes. No matter how bitter life is, they can’t stop them from entertaining themselves. Therefore, their music is full of all kinds of slang and vulgar words, and then they In this unique way of music, the culture of the Star Stripe country is connected with the status quo. In the end, rap, graffiti, and break dancing were the troika of hip-hop culture. However, due to the cultural background, white people It is difficult for the yellow race to integrate into the hip-hop culture."
Lu Ya asked, "Isn't your friend Eminem a white man? Ouyang Jing among the yellow races is the dominant level of the hip-hop scene in the Star Striped Country."
Xiao Peng shook his head and explained: "Eminem was able to join this circle when he grew up in a slum with black people, and Ouyang Jing is also a banana person. Our Chinese culture uses subtlety and freehand brushwork as a way of expressing beauty, which is in direct contrast to hip-hop music. Catharsis is two completely different paths. Nowadays, many young people in China like hip-hop and are keen on hip-hop, but it does not mean that they agree with the cultural form of hip-hop. It is more to find an outlet to vent their emotions, such as drugs, women, and crime. , Do you see how many people dare to touch? Besides, our Chinese entertainment industry is already sick."
Hearing this, Sun Lao became interested: "What is the sickness of the Chinese entertainment industry?"
Xiao Peng said: "In China's entertainment industry, it is a place where traffic and speculation are hotspots, and the voice of fans is louder than that of fans. These three exist in the China entertainment industry, and they are equivalent to real money. In the current entertainment industry, singers don't need it. You can become popular as long as you are beautiful, have a scandal, sing two other people’s songs, and make a fortune. Not to mention an actor, you don’t need to be good at filming at all. As long as you have enough fans, you can make hype, you can become a big name just by PS. And to be honest, the mainstream media in our country should take full responsibility for this situation. Look at the small fresh meats now, one by one is better than a woman, with eyeliner and eyebrow trimming, and speaking more than orchids, this is not What is the perversion? Why is it like this? The group aesthetics driven by the mainstream media! One by one only values ​​traffic but not results. If this goes on, the masculinity will disappear in China someday. Oh, I really need them one day To serve the motherland, how do you defend your homeland? You rush to the people, "I hate it, how can I bully them? People use small fists to punch you in the chest"?"
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, Lu Ya smiled and couldn't straighten up her waist: "Is there such an exaggeration as you said? People's dressing and dressing are just personal preference. You can't even care about people's dressing?"
After Xiao Peng heard this, he looked contemptuously: "Why are they dressed like this? Isn't it because the mainstream media promotes such a star every day? Finally, I found out, oh, it turns out that it is easy to be famous, so everyone started to draw eyebrows. Besides, this matter has to do with girls."
"What's this about girls? Xiao Peng, please make it clear, otherwise I will say you are sexist!" Lu Ya was anxious.
Xiao Peng curled his lips: "Does this still have to be asked? Children's aesthetics is not mature yet. I watch the media every day. Oh, such a boy is good-looking. I like this boy who draws eyebrows and draws eyes. It naturally drives the boys around. It all became like thisWhich boy didn’t want to please girls when he was young? In the end, boys also became all kinds of mothers. When the girls grew up, they complained that men are not like men. Who made this? Not because of them?"
Lu Ya was silent for a while after hearing this, she had to say that Xiao Peng made sense, but she was talking about women after all, so she changed the subject: "Hey, you said hip-hop just now, why did you get involved with Niang Pao?"
Xiao Peng shrugged: "What is there to say about hip-hop? What ‘BATTLE’, ‘DISS’, and ‘FREESTYLE’ are all leftover things from our ancestors playing."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Ya couldn't help but complain when he heard this: "Don't look at me not listening to hip-hop music, but I also know that what you are talking about is the characteristics of hip-hop music, how did you become our ancestors? Play the rest?"
Xiao Peng gave Lu Ya a white look: "The so-called'freestyle' actually means improvisation. It requires a certain vocabulary. It can be seen that the players are strong. Doesn't it sound high? In fact, almost all of us ancient literati are improvisations. The creators! Those so-called'freestyle' can be regarded as daily life for them! The simplest example, according to the "Shi Shuo Xin Yu" records, after Cao Pi came to power, he wanted to find an excuse to diss, Cao Zhi, who was more talented than him, Asked Cao Zhi to "compose poems in seven steps, and those who fail to achieve Dafa", as a result, Cao Zhi's freestyle poem has been passed down to this day.
After hearing this, Mr. Sun said: "Although this "Shishuoxinyu" is of high artistic value, its credibility still needs to be studied. How to say it, it is equivalent to today's gossip weekly."
Xiao Peng nodded and said: "Anyway, Cao Zhi's freestyle ability is absolutely fine. In "Three Kingdoms", isn't it recorded that he was more than a dozen years old and very talented, and it is said that Cao Cao was scared to read the articles he wrote. Anyway, ancient poets are almost all masters of freestyle. Even Cao Cao can sway "the geometry of life when he is drunk", so don't underestimate the freestyle ability of the ancients. Think about the Chinese National Museum. The national treasure of the Eastern Han Dynasty drumming and rap pottery figurines, wasn’t it because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard an artist’s improvisational rap ability and ordered the production?"
Lu Ya smiled and said: "You like nonsense. That's fine. Even if these ancients have great improvisational poetry skills, where do you start with "diss"."
"Diss is an inevitable product of the development of hip-hop culture. Generally speaking, people in the same industry or circle always want to live together peacefully, and they say that peace and prosperity are not? But the rules of the hip-hop game are completely opposite: if I think I am better than you , I must challenge you and try my best to replace you. If I think you are not pleasing to the eye, I will have to name and scold you to have a good time! All kinds of satire and attack each other, am I right?" Xiao Peng asked Lu Ya.
After hearing this, Lu Ya nodded: "It should be almost like this. Actually, I don't know it very well."
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "We have diss crazy demons in ancient China! It is the famous Su Dongpo! Su Dongpo is addicted to alcohol, but the amount of alcohol is just the five dregs of war. People give a nickname to pour, which is rare among ancient literati. His wines are even worse, he just dissers if nothing is wrong, and all the damages such as'a pear blossom pressed begonia','hedong lion', and'young chicken' are all from other people! I think that Li Gong, the prefect of Huzhou, chose to give birth. The big fat boy is very happy, so he entertained everyone. This Li Gongze was also dead, and directly invited Su Shi to give a speech. Su Shi also drank a lot at that time, but his wine... But Su Dongpo was caught that day. Li Gongze is a fierce exaggeration, "Wei Xiong Jia Meng, the old gentleman of the Shi family hugged him. The spirit is full of autumn, and the three dynasties have eaten cattle." These two sentences quoted the "Book of Songs" and "The Corpse" respectively. Li Gongze was very happy when he heard it, but after the next two sentences, Li Gongze cried."
"What did Su Dongpo say?" Lu Ya asked.
Xiao Peng fries the dishes in the pot and puts them on the plate. He said without looking back: "'Rhinoceros money jade fruit, Lishi is divided into four places, thank you for nothing, how should you look at this matter?" It's also simple, I really didn't help you with your childbirth... Don't you say this is a diss?"
After listening to Xiao Peng's words, Lu Ya was not convinced: "Then there is still a'battle'! So how do you explain it?"
Xiao Peng laughed: "That's the easiest thing to explain, isn't it that the two rappers used freestyle to fight each other? When our ancestors played this, it had to go back thousands of years! There is a poem in the "Book of Songs" called "Guo Feng-Qi Feng-Chicken Ming", the content is a duet between a sage concubine and a faint emperor! Isn't this the earliest battle? There is also the Bailiangtai style invented by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, which is a joint poem. Two lines of poems are continuously formed into a style of poetry. Isn’t that multi-person freestyle? So, in summary, Huaxia is the ancestor of these gimmicks."
Lu Ya was still not convinced: "According to you, Huaxia should be the ancestor of rap music? Then how did hip-hop music become the music form of the Stars and Stripes?"
"Who said that there is no rap music in China? It has always been there! Allegro! Although it is difficult to be accepted by the upper class, it has been popular for a period of time because it is both refined and popular. Compared with hip-hop, it is really not much more than that. There are still many crooked nuts who have traveled all the way to Huaxia to learn allegro. Unfortunately, we didn’t pay much attention to this matter. If we really seize that opportunity, maybe today’s TV show is not "China Hip Hop" It's "Star-Tiao State Allegro"." Xiao Peng replied solemnly.
Hearing this old Lu couldn’t help: "Old Sun, when did this kid Xiao Peng become such a virtue? It's obviously nonsense. Is there any reason for nonsense?"
Old Sun also said in surprise: "I don't know. Although this kid has been not serious, but he was still a normal child on the whole. How can he be like this now?"
Xiao Peng became anxious after hearing this: "What is nonsense? This is justified, and the more you argue, the more obvious you are."
Lu Ya made up the knife and said: "Grandpa, I don’t know what happened to Xiao Peng recently. This time I came to Kyoto and talked nonsense all day. I told me the other day that my aunt saved the Han people for more than two hundred years. I don’t know how. Say he's done."
Xiao Peng was complacent after hearing this: "Thanks to Grandpa Sun for saying one thousand things and ten thousand. Some time ago, Grandpa Sun gave me so many books. I was deeply indulged in the ocean of knowledge. After my painstaking research, Finally discovered the role of reading!"
"Oh? What's the effect? ​​Tell me about it." Lu Lao asked.
Xiao Peng said: "The biggest effect of studying is: even if I am talking nonsense, you have to listen honestly, because everything I say is reasonable and you can find evidence. It is very convincing at first glance. This is the greatest effect of reading."
Mr. Lu was holding a small teapot for tea. Hearing Xiao Peng’s words, he sprayed it out and looked at Mr. Sun with a grimace: "I said, Mr. Sun, you are smart for a lifetime. How can you do such a foolish thing? The ancients said that three kinds of people can’t read more: bad people can’t read, because the more they read, the worse they are; those who can’t get out of books can’t read, books will harm him; people with high talents can’t read and don’t read in their minds. There is no frame, but I dare to think and dare to do it. Reading has ruined his important affairs. No doubt, Xiao Peng is one of these three kinds of people."
Old Sun also nodded and said: "Oh, this is my fault. I really didn't expect it to be the result. I also had a fever in my brain. How could I think of letting Xiao Peng read?"
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "In the eyes of the two grandpas, I am a talented person who cannot read books. The two grandpas really praised me."
Unexpectedly, after hearing Xiao Peng's words, Lao Sun and Lao Lu stared at him together, and said in unison: "You? You are a bad guy!" Lao Lu continued: "Lin Zexu once said,'Improper behavior, reading is useless', It's you!"
"I...I..." Xiao Peng looked indignantly: "I'm not cooking anymore! Strike!"
