The original 4 elements were the "magical elements" as that aligned with the cosmic elements of Earth (The DJs alter), Fire (the MCs message), wind (the force of that paint being applied) and Water (the movement of the dancer). Remember the pagan roots of the ancestors. Hip-hop was a modern form of magic or alchemy used to elevate black people out of salvery.

This is why hip-hop will become a force to corrupt the youth if practitioners are not intentional about using this power for good and not evil
Who is here after looking at the Microphone Check Documentary? Culture Since 71 TH-cam channel? and Kool DJ Phase TH-cam Channel? ...All about the creation of hip hop in Bronx, NY? Mainstream media got us all messed up with false information.
Doesn’t street knowledge should include all the other elements with a word “street”? And what’s the difference between street knowledge and all other elements added by KRS-ONE ?
There are only 4 elements to hip hop, D.j'ing, M.C.'ing, Graffiti and Break dancing Beat Boxing is a side bar which was fazed out in the mid 80's. KRS 1 is a dope M.C. but he caint just add shit cause he feel like it. Though Hip Hop started in the streets it grew past that into an international art form, so being from the streets and having street knowledge isn't necessary in hip hop today. There are thousands of M.C's who don't xome from the streets and are some of raps biggest stars like Drake for instance. I just don't like it when you have certain people who think just because they have deep roots in the hip hop game that they can come and change things just because they say so. How can KRS 1 decide what goes and what doesnt, he didn't create Hip Hop and neither did Bambata, even though I respect them both and their contributions to the game but let's stop wit all the extra sht and recognize that the four elements of Hip Hop are like the 10 commandments that's what it is and that's what it's gonna be.
THERE WERE 5 NOT 4. KRS-1 IS NOT THE HOLY GRAIL OF HIP HOP! HE IS KNOWLEDGEABLE BUT DUDE DO BETTER RESEARCH PLEASE! HE'S JUST GIVING YOU HIS PERSPECTIVE, NOT PURE FACTS BRO!!!
