Hip Hop Culture Around The World

Hip-hop has influenced many artists and Panjabi Mc is an example of one break through artist. His famous record though is not known by him it is better known by Jayz’s remix. The hip-hop influence around the world is undeniable because the hip-hop culture is expanding. Unlike hip-hop in America, around the world they are talking about the government or what they see every day. Hip-hop has evolved into something greater than the beat boxers, and break dancers that were jamming to the MC's. It has turned into self expression and trying to make changes.

Panjabi MC made his international breakthrough complete with "Mundian to Bach Ke" ("Beware of the Boys") during 2002 and 2003, the song was several years old. His professional career reached back to 1993.Before he was signed, the MC was honing his skills as a freestyler. Then he began to record more of his own tracks, which lead to stop using studio sounds and incorporated live musicians.

His first single, "Rootz," was released officially on an independent label, but it was banned allegedly due to politics within the bhangra music industry. A steady release of albums throughout the '90s made Panjabi MC one of the most prominent names in bhangra. "Mundian to Bach Ke," recognized immediately for its use of the dynamic bass line from the Knight Rider. The incorporation of the traditional dhol (drums) and tumbi (one-string guitar) instruments became successful across the globe, placing the MC on the U.K.'s Top of the Pops program while leading to a Jay-Z remix.
