Hip hop and punk rock are as opposite as haikus and opera to the untrained ear. Although the two genres differ sonically, take a closer listen to the lyrics of politically charged hip hop and punk groups, and there you’ll find overlapping themes of societal disregard, poor living conditions, and corrupt government practices.
As early as the 1970s, cats like Afrika Bambaataa sparked a union between these two rebellious sub-cultures, welcoming the punks from Lower East Side Manhattan to the Zulu Nation gatherings in the Bronx. Although alliances such as these have dwindled over time, there are still artists fighting to preserve this unique culture mix today.
