Title: Subcultures

Subcultures

Teddy Boys
  • The British Teddy Boy subculture is typified by
    young men wearing clothes inspired by the styles
    of the Edwardian period, which Savile Row tailors
    had tried to re-introduce after World War II.

3
Hippies
  • The hippie subculture was originally a youth
    movement that began in the United States during
    the mid-1960s and spread around the world. The
    word hippie derives from hipster, and was
    initially used to describe people who created
    their own communities, listened to psychedelic
    rock, embraced the sexual revolution, and used
    drugs such as cannabis and LSD to explore
    alternative states of consciousness.

  • Hippie's motto is "Make love not war"

  • The VW Bus became known as a counterculture and
    hippie symbol, and many buses were repainted with
    graphics and/or custom paint jobs these were
    predecessors to the modern-day art car. A peace
    symbol often replaced the Volkswagen logo. Many
    hippies favored hitchhiking as a primary mode of
    transport because it was economical,
    environmentally friendly, and a way to meet new
    people.

6
Punks
  • The punk subculture is a youth movement based
    around punk rock. Punk first emerged from the
    rock music scene in the United States and the
    United Kingdom in the mid-1970s. Since then, the
    punk movement has spread around the world and
    developed into a number of different forms with
    much regional variation. Punk culture encompasses
    certain styles of music, ideology, fashion,
    visual art, dance, literature, and film. Punks
    tend to live a certain lifestyle and share a
    sense of community with one another.

Rap and Hip-Hop
  • Hip hop music is a musical genre typically
    consisting of a rhythmic vocal style called rap
    which is accompanied with backing beats. Hip hop
    music is part of hip hop culture, which began in
    the Bronx, in New York City in the 1970s,
    predominantly among African Americans and Latin
    Americans. The term rap music is often used
    synonymously with hip hop music.

  • Marshall Bruce Mathers III (born October 17,
    1972), known by his primary stage name Eminem, or
    by his alter ego Slim Shady, is an American
    rapper, record producer and actor.

11
  • Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 September 13,
    1996), also known by his stage names 2Pac (or
    simply Pac) and Makaveli, was an American rapper.
    In addition to his status as a top-selling
    recording artist, Shakur was a promising actor
    and a social activist. Most of Shakur's songs are
    about growing up amid violence and hardship in
    ghettos, racism, problems in society and
    conflicts with other rappers. Shakur's work is
    known for advocating political, economic, social
    and racial equality. Shakur was initially a
    roadie and backup dancer for the alternative hip
    hop group Digital Underground

EMO
  • Today emo is commonly tied to both music and
    fashion as well as an inspiration toward the emo
    subculture, and the term "emo" is sometimes
    stereotyped with tight jeans on males and females
    alike, long fringe (bangs) brushed to one side of
    the face or over one or both eyes, dyed black,
    straight hair, tight t-shirts (usually
    short-sleeved) which often bear the names of emo
    bands (or other designer shirts), studded belts,
    belt buckles, canvas sneakers or skate shoes or
    other black shoes and thick, black horn-rimmed
    glasses. In recent years the popular media have
    associated emo with a stereotype that includes
    being emotional, sensitive, shy, introverted, or
    angst-ridden. It is also associated with
    depression, self-injury, and suicide.
