Here are some Hip Hop quotes that I found:

- "Hip-hop is the streets. Hip-hop is a couple of elements that it comes from back in the days... that feel of music with urgency that speaks to you. It speaks to your livelihood and it's not compromised. It's blunt. It's raw, straight off the street - from the beat to the voice to the words." - Nas
- "Hip-hop is the voice of this generation. Even if you didn't grow up in the Bronx in the '70s, hip-hop is there for you. It has become a powerful force. Hip-hop binds all of these people, all of these nationalities, all over the world together." - Jay-Z
- "Hip-hop is supposed to uplift and create, to educate people on a larger level and to make a change." - Doug E. Fresh
- "Hip-hop is more about attaining wealth. People respect success. They respect big. They don't even have to like your music. If you're big enough, people are drawn to you." - Jay-Z
- "Hip-hop is the streets. It's a way for us to show our talent, our creativity, our genius." - Doug E. Fresh

I hope this helps!
